Annoying scrolling due to signatures

[Maximvdw]

Dear,

On chrome (PC) I am noticing some annoying scrolling. When scrolling through threads the page 'halts' when it passes a signatures (fast scroll). I have to move the mouse outside of the thread area before scrolling what is really annoying

My suggestion is to have expandable signatures but not automatically make it scroll

Yeah, it's not a bug but it is a bit annoying.

Maybe lock signatures from scrolling until mouse has hovered about 1 second to prevent this.

The reason this happens is because there is a signature size limit. But you can also put tall images in, so the signature must expand to show the whole image.

MC-Market can easily "fix" the issue by editing 1 line of CSS, but that means anything that doesn't fit in the 250px signature height (i.e. any images taller than 250px) will be cutoff and not visible.

The update would be .signature { overflow: hidden; }

If they don't decide to do this fix, here's a few options you can do yourself (ranked easiest to hardest):

1) You can disable signatures altogether:
https://www.mc-market.org/account/preferences

2) You can use uBlock Origin (I think Adblock Plus has a similar feature) to hide specific images:

3) I forget the name, but you can get CSS customizers (like the extension that the Onyx theme started on before becoming it's own extension) to make that CSS change yourself. Just add the following CSS:

.signature {
    overflow: hidden;
}

Or you can scroll on the side ?

I used to think that was annoying as hell too once, but I got used to scrolling from the side now, so.[DOUBLEPOST=1517519575][/DOUBLEPOST]I'm not saying I disagree with the suggestion, I was just what I did to solve the problem.

That is what I did too, I really don't see this as an issue.

This isn't really much of a problem I don't think, scrolling on the sides is the easiest solution so that users can keep their long signatures.

Denied, thanks for the suggestion.
