    I have to echo what Aik said - the absence of sigs is one of the things that helped set SP apart from the rest.

    I'm not opposed to them, though - as long as they remain text. Image sigs aggravate the hell out of me (I too have been around other forums with gigantic image sigs), but as long as they remain small and unintrusive and don't clog up a thread, then I'm cool with that.

    OTOH, I understand that sigs can be switched off, which is a great thing.

    Hm, I'm not too sure about that. They are both words and isn't grammar knowing when to use the correct word. I may have to start a poll and thread on this.

    I'm off to "Whatnots"

    This 100 character limit is causing me problems. I can't give proper credit to my signature. Argh

    I've relaxed the signature permissions somewhat since I had to redo their permissions on XF. Basically, you can apply whatever the signature editor allows you to, but are limited to 2 lines of text and 5 maximum links as a regular user with 5 or more posts. Signatures for accounts with fewer than 5 posts are disabled to prevent their abuse by sig spammers.

    SPS account holders get more of everything, including the permission to use images and smilies in signatures. More specifically: 4 lines, 5 links, 2 images and 3 smilies max.

    Thanks for the update. 8 links? Do I understand this correctly. 4 lines, 8 links, 2 images and 3 smilies that is a lot.

    Anyone who needs 8 links in their signature is automatically going on my ignore list. :p

    Yea, that's mostly for any mod makers with a lot of mods to promote, I don't expect regular users would ever use anywhere near that.

    If you have a lot of mods, it's still better to make a thread or post with a collection of links and link to that in your signature. At least that's the common practice elsewhere for anyone with 5+ notable projects that they wish to publicize.
