Can I shrink huge image signatures?

[Reiquel]

Some of you have ginormous images in your signatures. I don't want to disable signatures entirely in my preferences, but it would be nice if there were a way to set a maximum size.

Not a problem on mobile, at least.

You cannot resize other people's signatures.
I'll bring the topic to the rest of staff to see if we can add a maximum size for them in the forum rules.

A CSS snippet that seems to have worked for someone:

XF 2.0 - Signature Image Sizes

Hey, How can I decrease the size of the image from the signature, so users won't be able to upload images like this big?

xenforo.com

 

[Reiquel]

What maximum size sounds reasonable?

 

[ExLight]

I remember someone mentioning in the staff chat that we accept up to 800x200 (?), although these limits aren't being currently enforced. We're still in the process of standardizing it, but would appreciate suggestions on what the users consider an adequate size.

In the meanwhile we'd like to ask members to use common sense and resize or spoiler images in the signature that are too large.

If a member has a signature that has been disruptively large please consider reaching staff or them directly about it.

As for the xenforo plug-ins/ CSS code we're still waiting the staff that has access to them to take a look.

Second This please lol
The signatures being off by default on mobile seems to make some of our users not realize what it looks like when they post

500x300/350 or 600x370/400.

When I resize those tend to be good.

I don't even notice this issue on mobile, I just know posting any picture on here is a massive pain in the neck, even pictures I take with my own phone's camera.

Yeah once my art piece was 14000x3000 and I was like.. woah.

Well, even pics I take of my cats on my phone are way above 1920x1080 in resolution.

Just over the years, I find somewhere around 950x950 is just as large as you can get it, uploading images yourself, and posting higher resolutions requires hosting from a third party, and hoping they're using a sensible image format like PNG or JPEG, or you just convert the file in Paint to a sensible format, then resize within resolution limits.

WebP files are the bane of my existence.

Same. I use Lunapic to auto resize and then it has a bar that lets you select what size you want that works well for siggies and etc.
