Signature Question

Question guys, I decided to make a new signature for the AcuraWorld.com forums... I was going to go with a table format, so I could eventually link Legend FAQs, etc. However, when inputting the HTML code i hit the 500character limit due to the coding, is there a way to input more characters than 500? (HTML) not actual ASCII Text.


Old Sig:


New sig..is being displayed, actually a table...but not enough character room to actually put hyperlinks within it:

hehe... I just checked my sig and it is definitely over 500 characters...


when I tried to fix the broken link, I got the same error...

Quote:
The following errors occurred when this message was submitted:
1. Your signature can not be longer than 500 characters.

I think this is a new limit that we took on when we upgraded to vBulletin 3... my sig must have been entered before a limit and just got carried over.

I guess I will try to find out if we can make the limit a little bigger...

If we can, do you have a suggestion as to how big?

I really don't know lol...according to my HTML program, i'm currently using 417 Characters, if I attempt to input a hyperlink, a font change, etc..that number would shoot up really quick. That's probably a question best left to a supermoderator

cut out all the spaces if your html editor thinks you have 417 characters. don't use hard returns. vbulletin takes those as a ton of characters.

I don't think my sig even works if I left in hard returns...


by the way Hector, one of the admins changed it for you... the limit is pretty big now.
