• Right now there is a guideline on acceptable signature sizes.
• When you edit your signature, there is YouTube BBCode support.
• If you use this code, the resulting youtube image is larger than the acceptable sizes

• Either YouTube support should be dropped from signature editing OR
• The image that comes up should be resized to fit within the guidelines OR
• The guidelines should be modified to include a YouTube support exemption.

• Right now, the rules are practically begging to be broken.
• People who disable signatures will miss out on EVEN MORE, meaning they will keep sigs turned on.
• People with sucky art skills can still have cool, dynamic sigs.

BBCode is ON
[img] is ON
[flash] is OFF
[url] is ON
Smilies are ON

Since youtube is a custom bbcode, it doesn't come with certain limitation controls that are available in the Signature Settings for built in phpbb bbcodes. You can see what controls we can set when you go to edit your signature:

BBCode is ON
[img] is ON
[flash] is OFF
[url] is ON
Smilies are ON

In the end, this is a pretty minor to non-existent issue, and the time spent on it I think I'd rather see toward other "rule" items that have larger impact.

However, images and quotes describes the information in just a matter of seconds.
