Site Help

Hello everybody, I hope you're all having a wonderful day :)

So this is more of an issue I'm having with this site itself, and not the game. Whenever I go to edit my signature, I get a message telling me that I have too many characters, even when it's an embedded image, and less than 50 characters besides that. Does it count the formatting tags as characters? Even when I removed the image and just had the two hyperlinked words that (even with the hyperlinked formatting tags) was still well under the 255 character limit. Also, thank you to all the members of the TTW team, you've give me the chance to play my first and favorite Fallout game in a much more stable engine and with so many fixes to it. I love it, and I love you all for making it <3

Thanks in advance for your help!

Yes, it counts the formatting tags and the entire link as characters, that is why I had to use a URL shrinker to be able to have a picture and a few links in my signature.

Basically it counts any characters you can see in the "Plain Text Editor" view (you can use the "Switch to plain text editor" (which is under your Signature window when you're editing it) to see how many characters you're using in total).

What it looks like:

How many characters it actually uses:

Yeah ^

Unfortunately there aren't a lot of options for expanding it either. One of those "it is what it is" things.
