GTP's been lacking a "fun" topic like this for quite a while now, so I thought I'd initiate one. ;)

Signatures are interesting things – Some people cram all they can into 6 lines (GTP's official limit, for those of you who don't know), some people nicely fill out those 6 lines, some people completely ignore the 6-line limit, some people use fewer lines, and some even have no signature at all. Signatures give a little insight into a person's personality – a textual avatar, if you will.

With that said, some signatures are downright obnoxious. So, let's raise signature awareness!

If your signature meets all of the following requirements (

which are subject to subjectivity

1 6 lines or less
2 No [quote /] tags
3 No [size /] tags – unless you only have 1 or 2 lines in your sig
4 No emoticons ("smilies") – they increase line height
…then show your support for tidy signatures by putting the following in your signature:

TidySig – Smaller is better™

(Hit the "reply" button if you want to copy-paste the vB code)

It should be noted that you will probably have to reduce your signature to 5 lines in order to fit this extra bit in (unless you're creative and can integrate it in some other way – but without cramping, please).

Fight the good fight for smaller signatures. Or don't, if you don't want to and think I'm off my rocker. :P (Seriously though, let's have a little fun with this. :))
 
Uh, does mine work? I'm at the max, and it looks cool!
 
Actually you're now past 6, at a wopping 7.

And is mine past the limit? The quote tag and space it makes are kind of large :(.
 
No quotes? awwwwww

Is there anyway you guys can automatically restrict the number of lines? I need to improve my sig.
 
Well, eMad, you're against the size rule, but since that just takes up one line, it looks great. :)

But, but… it's so… cluttery! :ill: And over the limit. ;)

So, mine ain't gonna be ok?
Actually, yours looks very nice. 👍 Maybe I should specify emoticons with 6 lines… yours is better than most people's.

PS
And is mine past the limit? The quote tag and space it makes are kind of large :(.
Ooh, the TidySig committee (me) no like da big quote. Why not just use quotation marks? That's what they were invented for! :P
 
There's not enough creativity going on here with this guys. Step it up a notch!

:lol:
 
You lose points for not having the tidySig plug in your sig, Fryz.
 
My tidy sig > all tidy sigs

With the new tidy sig link, my signature has now increased to a whopping two lines!

I know about the clutternessm but I don't see how it is over the limit. Please enlighten me.
 
Is mine alright?.........It think maybe it needs tweaking.....but it is neat and tidy.....look all the links go down in a 'step' fashion!.......very organised! ;)
 
Sage, your club sucks, if we can't have quotes we can't have freedom! I'm going to create a club that beats your stupid club to death, now if you'll excuse me!
