I'm doing a countdown for a specific game on my sig, during the last 2 months everything I typed in the sig space fit perfectly with nothing broken, but now that I updated it, some characters got removed and, surprisely ,don't fit anymore, the space cuts the URL link and I can no longer center my sig and display the logo of the game, so what just happened? the characters limit was always 450 max, wasn't it? In fact, I just changed the Only 2 months for to Only 10 day for, which actually takes less characters. This is what I use to get (and how I want it):My phrase of the moment: "3DS FC:0473-7780-2239"Only 10 days for: But this is what I get now:

For the time being, I'd suggest shortening your image URLs by uploading them to an image hosting website. I personally recommend imgur; not gonna preach, but it's never failed me before!

...does it have to all be centered and a tower? can't you have one half of it on the left, and the countdown part on the right, only taking up two lines? your suggestion in the OP is f*** gigantic.

I also suggest Tid's idea, just place it side by side because no one wants to have to deal with a sig that big all the time.

take out the brawler card and the userbar
everybody already knows you're an mg user so why the f*** would you want that in your sig? + i'm pretty sure i don't need to explain why brawler cards are stupid

I'll be removing some stuff, the point here is not the sig being so large (I'm aware of that) or how I aligned it, it is that, mysteriously, some characters got removed alone, by themselves, when I was actually able to put everything without nothing going wrong.

it was probably a mod covertly shortening your sig so that your posts don't become so long as to cause the universe to fold in on itself

Huge sigs are generally scaled down by mods or admins.

Or perhaps the amount of characters was reduced in the new forum update (after we got a minor hack)

This looks more convincent.

I'm not modifying the sig size limit, I recommend optimizing your URL sizes and such (use imgur or something) We've been doing fine with the current sig limit for so long now this isn't enough of an excuse for me to up it
