How to get more than 500 chars in sig?


Is there a way to do this? I want to change my sig, but can't b/c it complains about it being over 500 chars. Physical size of my sig isn't too bad.

I think most people are taking a screen capture of their sig, then host that pic so you can link it into your signature...

One way would be to take your info and make it part of a gif image, upload it & voila! ... see my sig (I know the type is too small, but you get the idea....)

EDIT: looks like Bofinn typed faster!

I'm glad I turned off sigs. I can't imagine why anybody would feel they "must" have a sig that long. If it wasn't for the ability to turn sigs off, it would kill the dial-up users.

The race for quality has no finish line- so technically, it's more like a death march.

Or you can link to a gif of your sig, which is what I had to do since the gif is waaaaay toooooo big.

Any way to upload the png (I'm using this format) like the avatar pic? Or must this be a linked image?

You can't upload it as in an attachment..you have to have it "available" somewhere in cyberspace (like free photo pages) that you can link to with the [img]url to pic here[/img] tags.
