Sigs????

[Tismedt]

I had a weird thing happen last week and then again yesterday. Last weekend one of the members sigs looked very distorted on my rig. It was spaced out and took almost a whole screen to view the sig alone. I pmed the guy and ask nicely if he would fix his sig. The next day it was the same so I ask a mod to look at it. the sig was fine when the mod looked at and to me it was still distorted. Anyway I thought it was weird and let it go at that, then yesterday I modified my sig and in the morningI had a pm from someone telling me my sig was enlarged. Thats weird cuz to me it looked fine. Anyway has anyone else seen weird or large sigs lately. I'm just wondering if this is just on a few ppls system or if it is on most. Heres a pic of the sig I saw.

Ive had the same problem with 1 or 2 folks. I sent a PM to a mod about it and they told me it looked fine. So, I took a snap of it and had shown it to him, he said it was not the way it is.
What Browser are you using? Im on Opera, which seems to be the only thing that does it.

Ummm, judging from the add, I would say he is using opera.;)

Sorry for my speed, but I have so much untapped posting energy from not being able to all day. I have been hanging at Icrontics Forums though, and they are cool too.

Sometimes Opera really messes things up; it does it to me too. Sometimes entire images get replaced, it's nuts.

Ok so its not only me. Opera does have its odd moments but it is a great browser. I like that you can have multi pop server email accounts. Netscape wont let you. Wonder if there is someone we could contact to let them know there is a glitch ie Opera, vb, etc.

Your sigs kinda huge too eh, it takes up half of my screen at 1280 x 1024.

Remember that they are judged at a screen size of 800 x 600. :)

Gandalf i see you are using Mozilla. Have you seen the same sig size in IE or Netscape? I had no idea my sig looked like that to some others. That is way worse then the distorted sig I was seeing. I had used vb code to change the font size to .75. It looks more like 75. Anyway I changed back to no vb code and would like to know if it is a Opera Mozella thing or if it is in IE and Netscape also. Is .75 not a valid size in vb code?

[Gandalf]

Oh jeez, and all along I thought it was just the way your sig was!

I am using Mozilla 1.1, your sig looks fine now in Mozilla though.

That's weird eh.

I ran Opera for a few days a while back, and it messed a bunch of stuff up really bad here, so I went back to IE.

[Tismedt]

Gandalf I changed my sig after I saw your post. I sure dont want to look like a webhog :) And after looking at that screenshot I'm surprised I didnt get more PMs. Thanks for the input, though my question wasent answered it is, Is .75 a valid vb code font size? Anyone know where I can find out?

Cybermouse what do you mean messed up things "here" You are not refering to the forums are you? BTW thanks for the stickers they look good on my silver dragon.

[cyber mouse45]

Yeah it was just here, I didn’t notice it at any other site. Sometimes the sigs and ranks would go all wack, and I think the stars would too. And it did stuff like this. Also it was sooo slow. It took forever to load a page. I didn't like it.

PS, glad ya like the stickers. :)

Cybermouse I've also seen the Avatars look like that sometimes. I this issue is not part of the problem that the forums have been dealing with lately.
