Re: Short Signatures?

I believe that they take the url to one of those URL shrinking sites like tinyurl or something to make them smaller and thus fit more of them in a sig.

Go to ls.gd, it is a link-shrinking site.

Re: Short Signatures?

Yeah, It just makes long links, quite a bit shorter. This is good for signatures because of the 400 character limit.

Re: Short Signatures?

You know, I don't think tinyurl helps that much with the long name they have.

However ls.gd id good.  smile

Re: Short Signatures?

Why not use something like (demonstration), instead of just shrinking the link?

It's the actual code that counts in the character limit  sad
