Big Sig

[Sage]

So, how are the unanimous big sigs being handled? Is there a certain way to report offenders?

 

[Jordan]

Yes, just use the "Report to Moderators" button to report any one of their posts. Or, just send me PM.

Are BIG Sigs a problem???

 

[Jordan]

Yes, you can read the signature guidelines by taking a look at the link at my signature.

 

[Gran Turismo7058]

ok.

I've gotten compliments on mine, even got a PM from Giles, he likes it.

Jordan, eventually, I'd like to see the ability to have a banner-sized image in the sig, like with a limit of 75kbs or 100kbs, it think it would be nice, if no one abuses it.

Like limit people using the banner to having 1 line of text in thier sig, while non-banner users can have 3 lines. If I could have a banner, I could have a Mazda news thingy in my sig, and it would be all animated.

Probably won't happen, but it's worth a suggestion.

 

[Concept]

Although I like the idea of having banners in signitures, I don't. I have mixed emotions about them. For one, you could do great things with a banner and it would just look nice down in your signiture. On the other hand, having banners could be downright ugly. People having different sized ones, people just getting stupid. I'm on the fence on this one.

 

[MazKid]

I meant like having a system where there is a set size, like the normal banner size(95X495 or whatever it is), and the only way someone could have one is if it's checked by a mod. I'd do it if Jordan says ok, then if people want a banner in their sig, they send me a PM with the banner, and if it meets the specs and is appropriate content, then I ok it and they can have it. Anyone cheating the system would have their's removed.

In theory, it would work.

Put simply, I really really do not like browsing forums with images in signatures. Your signature should be a simple space with your favorite links or quotes, not a billboard.

I like banners, and i have had a special one made for me, but i think it is really not needed....

 

[MazKid]

I thought it wouldn't happen Jordan, guess I just wanted to hear it again.

Welp, time to save up for a billboard along I-270...

 

[Acid X]

Maybe Jordan could add a feature that allows uploading of a single signature pic, that couldnt be any bigger than a certain width+height and a certain file size. It would work kind of like avatars.. Heh, kindof a good suggestion i guess. O_o

 

[MazKid]

Kinda like my idea. Good in theory.

Isn't that the Saint Louis loop highway? You'd get more traffic if you just did it on I-70.

 

[Vasco]

How much does it cost to advertise there?

 

[MazKid]

Yea 270 is the loop...It's really close to my house so I thought that I could get one cheaper. The only problem with 70 is that there's already a lot of billboards and crap...and there's no good area...go east from 270 and it becomes the hood region, go west from 270 and(before going over the MO river)it's dead land.

I think it would cost like 1K a month to have it posted, but then you have to pay to have the sign made...in my case I'd want an animated billboard, so that would come out to a miniscule 2 million dollars.

But it would be cool to have a GTPlanet.net billboard!

1000$ per month? Think again, I know Maastricht charges about 400EUR (390$) per day for a 2 by 1,5 metres billboard.

 

[MazKid]

Ohh well then!!

But I think it's lower here if you find a piss-poor spot to put one(which isn't hard)...

 

[Vasco]

We have small billboards here.
