Add A System Feature

[BALISTX]

We should incorporate an Add a System thing like they have at overclock.net where on the left it shows the Intel, AMD, NVIDIA and ATI logos depending on your system and at the bottom in the signature automatically have your system. It would require a form to be made where we enter in our system information.

Sounds like a pretty cool feature, but it also sounds like it would take a fair bit of work to set up.

Gav would be the one to look into this kind of thing.

If there is ever an option in regards to this I would vote for it.
However we need an option to turn off the little brand logos.. or add our own I suppose.

We've have quite a few things planned for the site over the next month or so, but this is definitely something we might look into.

awesome. we don't even need the brand logos even just having the systems be defaulted into our systems. Gav if you go over to overclock.net I beleive they also use vBulletin so I'm thinking that is an add on of some sort. I'll do some digging for ya.

I don't agree. I like our signature! I hate such kind of feature like they also have some sort over @ Guru3D.

What if it was optional? Anyway, it does not take up sig space, just space below the sig.

imo sigs should be 0 graphics and limited to 2-3 lines. We can have a separate profile or something for rigs.

It makes it DRAMATICALLY harder to search the forum for information when everyone's sig has a bunch of hardware crap in it.

Example: trying to find info on the E6600 will bring up every post made by someone with an E6600 in their sig.

I'd never considered that....... folks like sigs though, and system sigs are almost a must for a website that offers advice on solving hardware issues. (It becomes a pain in a many-post desnagging thread to find the "one" that has all of the hardware listed together.

OTOH, if there was a self generating sig image plug-in that could include hardware info on a low-res standard size sig block image, the keywords wouldn't pick it off of a graphic.
