What are the rules in sig's? I know the dimensions cant be more than 500x150 but what other rules are there?

generally its no more than 8 lines, including images. 150 pixels is about 5-6 lines itself(thats the max height of sig pics). so....yea. my sig was @ 7 lines or so, thats why i shrank the text down.

sigs that are too big get "Corvette-forumish" according to Brains, lol.

What about animated sigs. Like you have a pic of your car and your username is animated in the pic?

animation is a no-go for sigs.

not stepping on toes cyphur but is there a reason as to why??

Because animations have much larger file sizes, so that slows down page loading a lot. Also, animated avatars are much smaller, so the animations are less distracting than a page full of animated sigs would be.

(The limit is 8 lines of text plus the image, fyi.)

thats retarded. it should be 8 or img + 3. but thats jmho.....

Height of line depends on text size... height of image isn't always going to be 150px... get way too convoluted to try to have a restriction like that
