Hi,
I was wondering if it is possible to put an .swf (flash movie) in your signature. If anyone can help, please post. I'm going to make a small flash movie on my projects and my site.

Use your common sence...

1. Does anyone else have flash in their sig?

2. Think of the chaos and seizures it would cause.

3. Think of the size of most, even short, flash vids

Stop downloading your spam then! I have never got a virus from FF, and no spyware. With IE I have got at least one virus (my family more) and tonnes and tonnes of spyware...

Netscape is an 'N' on a green/bluey background.

Edit: Here's a pic of it:

Well you're the only one, there's a 600x120 pixel size limit on signatures. You have 2 choices here:

1. Lose the animated gif image completely.
2. Get rid of the J-Sig and shrink the gif.

It's your choice, but failure to comply will result in continous 24 hour bans until you change it. A signature that large is bloody ridiculous.

@Dead and Ageek

That sig image of yours is extremely annoying, so I have now AdBlocked it. I don't mind sensible-sized sig. images, but animated GIFs should not be used unless the effect is fairly subtle.

The j-sig alone breaks the 600x120 size cap. In all fairness it was posted a long time ago and it doesn't exceed it by too much...

It is a perilous occupation for TGC to post anything by way of a promise, as the words get etched in indestructable marble for all time.
