Hi guys!

I cannot seem to edit my signature, as whenever I try, I get this:

The following errors occurred when this message was submitted:

BB code size value is too big.

This even occurs when I make my signature shorter! I've already contacted a mod about this (albeit a while back), but it seems it still won't go away.

Help, please!

It sounds like you are using too many font, size, color or other formatting codes. The actual bbcode tags are counted so everytime you use the bold code you use 7 characters. WIth font size 17 characters and so on.

When you're editing it, try toggling from WYSIWYG mode to show the codes. Click on the A/A icon in the upper RH corner of the window to do this. Then rip out unnecessary BBCode lines. For instance, if you do a font size or colour change the automatic arrangement puts in start and finish code symbols at beginning and end of each line even if the formatting is carried on to subsequent lines.

Looks like I had one too many tags after all... D'oh! :oops:

Thank you! :)
