Anyway, what Andreas is saying is that you need to check your server's phpinfo file, in particular the setting for "allow_url_fopen." To check this, go to your admin control panel and scroll down to the menu area's MAINTENANCE block. There's a link to check the phpinfo. Or you can go directly to the URL, which will be something like yoursite.com/forum/admincp/index.php?do=phpinfo. Do a search on the page for "allow_url_fopen." The options will be "ON" or "OFF."

Having said all this, I don't know if the setting is supposed to be ON or OFF for the sig limits to work. It appears that many hosts prefer to disable this setting for safety reasons.

Anyway, good luck, and I hope this helps!! And to Andreas, thank you very much for an interesting and useful addon. It isn't working 100% for me yet, but I'm still grateful to be able to use this for since at least it's working for text restrictions. (So far, I've had more problems with members going crazy w/text sigs than images.)

My forum/admincp/index.php?do=phpinfo says "allow_url_fopen On On " is that the correct setting to limit image sizes in signatures?
