Where is my necklace, hmm? Omygosh! I want Nathan's beard!

By the way, I made a suggestion somewhere about lining these items up horizontally under the sig, instad of vertically, because all this scrolling is just getting silly! Razz

Hmm, I see your point. I originally upped the number of items shown from 3 to 5 based on another request to have more items shown.

Not sure if you noticed, but I just switched where the items are displayed from the side to under the signature and while it cut down on the scrolling it added a "visual clutter" effect like on other forums where there are a ton of images in the sigs.

I'll keep thinking about this - maybe limit the number of items shown back to three? Leave it as is? Punt? I'm sure with enough thought we'll come up with a good solution.

Hmm, I saw the results of sig stacking. Yeah, it did look poop didn't it. Might have looked better if all the images were uniform size and maybe a bit smaller, like;

...or maybe regulate & reduce the image size and have them stack where they are now, only in 2 columbs, like;

Though the 3-piece limit is also a good anti-scrolling solution Smile

Happy Scratching!

I'll play around with it more tonight. I originally did the images with uniform width in mind, but it should be easy to alter the canvas to give them uniform height as well.

I like your idea of a three item limit SuperHiro.
It would clear up some of the clutter as well as
make members carefully consider which items to keep.
It might be fun to create an online auction
to sell off surplus or unwanted items
and hopefully the occasional One of a Kind Item as well.
Perhaps you could create an item or two just for the auction
or offer up some of the more expensive special effects
like change someone's title
or even auction off a large wad of rep points
to be distributed by the winning bidder.
I might be fun to see how someone would give them out.
Of course you would have to go by the honor system
that they do so and not keep the poinst for themselves
but that too would be interesting...
Anyway, just a few ideas for you to mull over.
