Only one link per signature, no files or downloads
An image would be a file and download. There ar technical reasons not allowing files in sigs is a good idea, two reasons that come readily to mind are page hangs and viri.
From an aesthetic and readability perspective, I have seen various forums go from great to garbage when the posters were allowed to use graphics in their posts.
No more than two lines, including spaces
While two lines is limiting the line limit has to be drawn somewhere.
I'm on a car forum where it seems people list every bolt they ever touched on their vehicles. I've seen 20, 30, more, line sig files.
I have no doubt some people would put their life stories, hopes and dreams, pictures of their children, Grandchildren, and 42 cats in their sigs, IF they were allowed.
I've seen it and it turns forums into messes.
