I saw something the other day that interested me. I'll have a look and get back to you later tonight.

Hmm. I can't find what it was I was looking at the other day. Rather odd. I'll keep lloking, but it seems like you managed to fit alot of text into the sig area!

It's possible to have two, yeah, as long as they are not too big.
ie, don't add another one to the current sig you have.

yes.... you can let a sigmaker (rocky, me, warlock, reaper....) shrink them for you and keep the quality of the original, or, if it's easier for you, in your profile add dimensions to the sig.
example: [*img height=100 width=200]the image URL[*/img]
this will allow you to decide on the size you prefer, however you will lose the quality of the image.

To answer Eez's original question...
You would have to be granted a very special favor by Rocky or Reaper (possibly Stare or Shinns as well, depending on the GM permissions).
Basically, you PM one of them the code you want to use. Let's say it's an entire paragraph from a book. Then, they would go into the Admin section of the board, and make an entry in the Set Censored Words area. It would look something like:
::EezsHugeSig::=an entire paragraph from a book.
Once that's done, all you need to do is edit your profile, and place this in your sig area:
::EezsHugeSig::
This would result in all of Eez's sigs looking like this:
an entire paragraph from a book.
Minus the color, of course (unless that was coded in).
While this is a way to solve the problem, it can also be a royal pain in the ass for the Admins / GMs. So, don't be surprised if they choose not to do this.
NOTE: I used the "::EezsHugeSig::" as an example, because you want to use something that's very unique. If you set it for the word "sig", then everytime someone typed in that word, it would be replaced with whatever followed the equal sign.
Let me know if this isn't clear enough.

Yeah, I had thought about that. But I'm not entirely sure how much the censored words section can hold. If there was a limit, it would have to be a case of first come, first serve and I don't think that would be fair.

I don't think there is, Rock. And if there is, it's too large to worry about...I just copied all 4 headers and footers code into mine to test the length, and it took it all without a hiccup. That was 15,852 characters.
Given that that's more than 50% more than what you're allowed to place in a single post, I don't think it'd be a problem if you chose to do this for select users.

It's certainly something that's worth a try then, if anyone wants a bigger sig space.
Thanks Warlock.

Glad to be of service, sir.
That'll be $2.50 please.
