Hi - I like to put my TR's as links in my signature. I am running into a 1000 character limit. Is there a way I can shorten the HTML... or get a longer signature permission?

I just went through this via PM with another member the other day. Try using the THREAD tags instead of the full URL, should save on some characters.

Example:
Instead of:
Code:
[PLAIN][URL="http://forums.alpinezone.com/20310-sunday-river-november-21-2007-a.html"]SR 11/21[/URL][/PLAIN]
Try this:
Code:
[PLAIN][URL="https://testforum.alpinezone.com/threads/20310/"]SR 11/21[/URL][/PLAIN]
SR 11/21

You should be able to see where I got the thread id numbers from in the above URL.

You'll probably have to change your Editor Interface in order to see the vB code. Goto Edit Options under your User CP. Scroll down to the bottom and you'll see an option for Message Editor Interface, change it from "Enhanced Interface" to "Standard Editor".

EDIT: Damn, I guess we already had a thread explaining this....
