I was looking though the new rules and was wondering why the signature has to show after the left-bar. I did some poking around with firebug and found that we could save a lot of space if we removed some CSS clear: both tags.

after:

It reduces the entire page by 2000 pixels, or average 200 pixels per post.
techincal details: in line 894 of [FONT="Courier New"]showthread.css[/FONT] : for [FONT="Courier New"].postbody .aftercontent[/FONT] remove [FONT="Courier New"]clear: both;[/FONT]
(of course, this will need to be tested on different browsers, but this 'hack' alleviates the left-bar+signature problem. for short messages.)

I like the idea :chin:
Looking it it now, it would take a little getting used to seeing short posts have the images right under it.
Even if not 200 pixels, it could be 150 if it's much of a problem for some:
Or even so, if it was possible to have this as a option in "Settings" and see how they like it.

If it'll work in all the browsers then I'll set it up.

I don't mind the new signature rules anyway, though.
It would be nice to have both.

i like the new rules too, this is jsut something else i found that saves more space. browsershots.org is a good place to test various browsers if you can get a side-copy uploaded somewhere.

It's a good idea if Osay sandboxes it and it works on all browsers and doesn't screw anything up! :thumb:

Isn't this what we've been looking for?
Sooner is better while everybody's still adjusting to changing signature sizes.

Very nice. I think it should work too, but I suppose testing is always the best plan.

I approve of this. Cross-browser testing is a *****. Make sure you get IE6 and IE7 as that's where most of the crap gets screwed up. God I hate having to work around IE6 and IE7. It's a shame people even use those browsers.
