Signatures are getting a bit out of hand. Should I make a limit? And what should it be?

Why don't you just remove them and add small text things to your avatar area (like your orange Site Admin thing)?

My suggestion is:
a. Text: 500 chars max + 1 small pic (~300x50; 100x50)
OR
b. Pics: 2 pics with total height of 200px (max lenght ~800px)
There is only one condition for the pics - lenght must be bigger/equal than/to height Cheers

P.S. Yes, I fit in these limits Laughing

OK, basically the limit for the whole of your sig is 700 pixels wide by 200 pixels tall (approximately), so if you want you could have ten small pictures, as long as they are less than 200 pixels tall. And no image should be more than 700 pixels wide.

If you need to check if you sig fits the limits, do this:

Press Alt+Printscreen while looking at your sig
Open up MS Paint
Press control+V
Using the marquee (selection) tool, drag a square from the top left of your sig to the bottom right.
While you are still holding the mouse down, read the number in the bottom right of Paint.
This number is the width then height of your signature. It must be less than 700x200
