Default sigs

ok, so a fellow here told me i had sig restrictions, so i changed it. not enough, ok thats fine, but i asked how to further change my sig so it wsnt deleted, and got no repsonse, so i assumed it was ok. guess not since it was deleted.
could someone tell me how to resize my sig so it doesnt get deleted, im not mad that it was just deleted, i just want to know how i can get it back!

and a suggestion to the site, ive seen quite a few forums that were setup to only allow a person's sig to appear once per page. meaning, if they posted 3 times in one page of a thread, their sig only posted in their first post. this would help cut down the site's size considerably, since i know that was the issue with my sig just being a lil too big.

anyway, back to work. time for a headgasket on a 350 in a chevy cargo van...
fun....

The sig pics don't affect the site size or anything since all the pics are hosted by the users. The size limitations are there to keep people from having to scroll to read a thread. Also, they are there to help people on slower connections.

The limiting the number of times a sig is put up in a given post sounds like a good idea. I will do some searching around to see what that involves. It's pretty easy to just click the little button "Show your signature" to turn it off too but, like me I know other are lazy too.

How to get 10 posts per page = option in user controll panel
how to turn off sig? = un-check "show your signature" when posting.
