I just made a post to D20 charops and noticed my sig wasn't displaying properly. I haven't made any changes to my sig, for like, a year or so (and it was fairly discrete, being sblocked). I've checked my profile and the whole thign is still existant on my profile page and previews okay, but on the main board's it's displaying only about less than half of it (consequently screwing the vb tags). It's also slightly longer, in this form I fear, than it was tidy with the sblock. A quick character count in Word says it's showing the first 956 characters (1024 with spaces).

Is it just me or has there been something changed recently? I'd half expected that when I saw the problem that maybe the sig character count had been (drastically) reduced, but I'd have thought that would have been reflected in the My Profile page.

Any ideas?

If it is a character reduction in the length of sigs, then why hasn't the profile page registered it (or at least told me it's no longer legal?)

(I hope it's not the former, since I mainly use my sig to keep track of my threads, owing to the (original) lack of search and for speed. I can live with it I guess, but I'll be a bit peeved.)

Did you recently set the profile option that only displays a certain number of lines?

I've seen this happen once and it was the skin that was causing it. The sig looked fine to others, but the person who was viewing it saw it cut off after so many characters.

With my Parchment and Leather, I see your sig as cut off.



I just tried changing my skin (to Magic: Black) and with that skin your sig looks fine. Which forum skin are you using? (Just tried D&D default and it cuts off your sig).


I don't remember if the previous time I've saw this if it was fixed or the person just changed skins.
