Our Very Own OCUK Branded Steam Sig Generator

My sig has disappeared... The site hasn't broken or anything it's just literally gone - the text in my sig has been taken away completely

Why has mine been removed twice now with the "read FAQ" when im using this same one as everyone else?

Great stuff

Pure speculation, but my guess is that the file-size of the generated image varies slightly dependent upon what the "current/last game" graphic is (simpler images in general compress better) So unfortunately when you play certain games the image crosses some sort of threshold maximum size for the forum. If that is what it is then there isn't an easy solution

(perhaps Koolinger could do something fancy with the sig generator to cap the maximum file-size at the expense of a small amount of quality - by using slightly more aggressive compression if it goes above the limit... but I suspect that could add a fair amount of complication or even make all signatures slower to generate so he may not want to)

Yes, probably what has been said above. I will raise it with the team.

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Am I the only one finding that these don't link to the English steam site?

 

[CaptainRAVE]

These don't seem to be showing the current game played at the moment?

 

[V_R]

Still borked... Need a replacement!

 

[uncle_rufus]

It's not totally broken, I expect Valve might have messed with the API very slightly and what Koolinger had put before isn't quite working with it

 

[CaptainRAVE]

This sig needs an update. It doesn't show the game played anymore

I got an infraction for using one of those signatures, so be warned people.

They sometimes go over the sig size limit rule, but we generally allow them - sometimes the mods forget

 

[uncle_rufus]

You know what's funny, RAVE...

In some threads the game played part of the sig still works... Just been in the Skyrim thread and it's working for a few in there

Is it possible Koolinger saw what's been discussed above and perhaps setup something on the OcUK sigs that stops the game being displayed if it would mean pushing the sig over the size limit? (not sure though)

Mine seems to be picking up my old username?
It's showing geoffpalmeruk not UrbanFreestyle....

***EDIT***
Seems to have updated guess it just took a while to refresh.

Just see your sig pop up on the live ticker on that website
