Pictures in Signature

Hi,

Do we want to allow pictures in signature ?

I found a MOD, that will disable pictures in signature.

http://www.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=323856

Allowing images in signature, adds more work to moderators as some users put big images that deform the forum, also make the forum load slow for users on slow connection. These pictures do not add any value to the forum.

Do you think we should allow use of images in signature or install the MOD to prevent this ?

Thanks,

Nokia

This mod will reduce load for sure
But sometime images in signature are useful like sed by basketball
indianbaba's signature image is a warning sign for spammers

But this happens very few times
If there is a mod to restict file size and dimensiona it'll be good
Like signature avatars also need to be controlled

@basketball
Look at your avatar size 354KB
thats tooo high
As a responsible user and being warned once for you avatar

Thanks basketball and Guttu for suggestions. We will manage signature with out the mod.

basketball, your avatar is too big, hope you will consider having a low bandwidth version of your signature for Indian users Smile
