Hey guys, I know images are not allowed in signatures, but what about SVG?
Quality of signatures would for sure be much better with vector graphics, but I am not sure if I ever saw a forum that has svg signatures, and I am not sure we even need that.
I think that theymos is trying to reduce all the risks and I don't expect to see any changes with signatures, at least not with current forum software.
You an get very good signatures for your business even now, if you pick a good designer.
I have taught of why signature designers doesn't use SVG to achieve fine and scalable designs. But I didn't attribute it to risk of vulnerabilities or maliciousness. I just concluded that signature space is not that much, only the vector codes will occupy the majority space of the signature space. I couldn't remember that Theymos can increase the signature space, then the whole system can be loading slowly.
I believe Theymos doesn't want to include anything that will not benefit the forum, it's not worth risking.
