Dear TRites,

I'm enforcing a new rule that animated signatures are not allowed. These cause too much lag when browsing boards and are generally unnecessary. If you still want to keep the theme your animated signature has, I suggest turning it into a static image and saving it as a .png.

Staff: Please remove any animated signatures that are used.

Related: Who wants pony-themed signatures?

Thank you for your compliance,
-V

Unless if it's pure html or can be done through editing the stylesheet, Forummotion offers little support in terms of installing custom scripts.

Intensely animated .swf's are banned, but ones with buttons for links (like the x-box sigs) or MoTM plaques are fine.

It moves. That's exactly what's being banned. Does it take a neurologist to figure that out?

Just got to say, that isn't what causes the lag. That's done with the UBBC code, which is built into the forum and isn't laggy... the lag is caused by the images that are actually more like videoclips. (And which drive me crazy; I applaud this rule.) So I'm pretty sure it's just the movie images that are the ones being banned...

Vamp, clarification?

Juliana is right in that respect. Gifs and Swfs generally upload larger files whereas the code simply changes the inherent html code to make the image move from side to side, similar to marquee text.

Juli is correct is that movie clips cause the most lag. That being said, marqueed images are still generating animation on your screen and thus creating some amount of stress on your machine.

Besides, they're annoying.
