Any way to get more room in the signature area for listing mods?

I added 100 characters. That is a total of 500 characters for signature space. If you have more farkles than that on your bike, quit bragging!

We need more room on our profile page too, some of us old guys have owned more than five or six bikes, and it's fun to tax our meager memories trying to see if we can remember them all.  Tech23

I want less space. The problem with listing all your mods in your sig line is that it becomes impossible to do a reasonable search. The search engine finds your signature line and returns every post you've made. Do a search for "illumination", which I pulled as an uncommon term from Tech's sig...more than 10 pages of results, and only one or two that aren't from Tech. It is a pretty common problem with forums and, unless you can figure out a way to eliminate the sig line from a search, ryde, a pain in the butt to hunt for information. Besides Tech, you don't have to brag....we know you've got a sweet DR.

Ryde won't be able to do it, if we send enough emails to the forum hosting company they might get it done.

This site is powered by a variant of PHPBB and it is pretty customizable form what I know. I previously worked as a Mod for buncha websites back in the day powered by Vbulletin, Phpbb etc but dont remember if they had a limit on the siggy space. (Vbulletin is nicer and has more features but is also expensive). Update: A quick search showed you can indeed increase the siggy size.

I didn't realize it screws up the search function. It's seems easier when people ask what are the mods you have done on your bike, to have it all spelled out at the bottom of each of your post's.

Tech23 I have an idea you could try. If there is no limit on Image size, you can create a jpeg or something similar with all the mods listed. (640X200 or something similar.) (Probably type it all up and take a screenshot) Below the image, you can add plain links from the forum as Link1 Link2 etc That way you can avoid showing up in the search. ############################################################ # Your image with all the related text # # # # # # # # # # # ############################################################ Link1 Link2 Link3
