I doubt I'll fix it soon. Someday it might be nice to let people choose which BBCode tags they want to see in posts, signatures, and PMs.

Although turning off ALL glow isn't good, because some signatures actually use glow in a nice fashion.
Maybe remove glow of a specific font size?
IMO there's no "glow in a nice fashion". I just don't want to be attacked by colors everywhere. Open a thread from the newbie forum to see what I mean.
I always look at signatures anyway (except the glowed ones) so that doesn't change anything for me.


I know some people are fine with colors and such things, but an option to delete/hide them (the colors) wouldn't hurt anybody and isn't hard to implement so would it be possible to implement it?
Also this would make the forum ad (just after the first post) more eye-catching
Just make a greasemonkey script, you'd already be done if you'd started it instead of this thread Cheesy
Good idea, first I'd prefer a word from theymos on this though. It would be easier to make it server-side.
Also does this work on IE and Chrome? (IE at work...)

Doesn't use these forums that often.
I'm not against. (Yes, it is annoying.)

Personally, the glow looks cool.
But you should have the option to do this for signatures yelling "BLAHCASINO.COM [tons of unicode] FREE ROLLS ETC [unicode] PLAY NOW!"
Edit: Glow should be like my signature - small, yet cool.
I'm just asking an option to hide it if I want to.
Are you against? If so I'd like to know why because I see no reason for this.

As it looks like I'm not the only one, I'd really like to know what theymos thinks about this
Even just a few words like bad idea/vaguely considered/will deliver soon would be enough

Maybe support signatures that don't use colors and people will stop using colors in their signature Tongue
Just like supporting whistleblowers makes governments more honest, right?

So they must choose matching Colors to soothe the Eyes

Pretty good idea. I don't think I would use it personally. But, I see why they can be irritating.

lol look at your sig

Keep it real
I like that idea, the colors do get a little annoying.
