    Forum suggestion

    Any chance of changing to a skin where the signature appears directly below the post. Right now the signature appears beneath where the user info on the left ends and this means you get a lot of white space. Then if you add to that some peoples ridiculously large signatures you get times when all you can see on screen is a single post and I'm on 1600x900.

    I don't believe it's possible to get rid of that excess white space. I think it's like that on other providers as well. Technically, the entire white space is the post. If you were to remove part of that area, you'd be removing part of the post.

    I think some CSS tweaks would solve this problem. I remember having had this problem with punBB and one CSS rule fixed it.

    I'm not quite sure I follow you? What is it that you want done exactly? and vBulletin's 'styling' is very different from other platforms so it'd take a little more tweaking to fix or add a rule/conditional to the CSS.

    See the excess white in our posts?



    I believe he wants to remove that.

    It's a single bit of CSS that needs changing

    Code:
    .postbitlegacy .after_content {
    	position: relative;
    	width: 100%;
    	clear:both;
    }
    The clear needs changing to just right like

    Code:
    .postbitlegacy .after_content {
    	position: relative;
    	width: 100%;
    	clear:right;
    }

    I believe the 'problem' is when a user has a lot of profile info showing in the mini profile. I don't have a lot in my MP, so my post is short, where as someone else's MP has a lot, forcing the post to stretch. (I believe the signature also comes into play)

    Disabled signatures for now. One of the first things I do in any forum I'm admin of is bring in a limit of the size of signatures to prevent this sort of thing. The white space issue just adds to the problem.

    That's a bit extreme. Personally, it's just excess space, I don't think it's that big of a deal. If it's causing resolution issues for you, you can hold CTRL and use the mouse wheel to zoom in or out. Disabling signatures all together is not the way to fix things. Plus, it's most likely gonna upset members.
