regarding dynamic signatures. - Vaxorr - Aug 3, 2015

Hello,

i've got small question rolling in my mind.
some members are selling their signature spaces and saying they got x amount of views in the past x days.

how do i count my signature views without breaking the rule.

Use a url shortener for the link that gives you stats when clicked.

There's no way of knowing how many views your signature gets.

There is, they're just not allowed:

No. You're not allowed to use dynamic sigs on HF. They can be abused and normally slow the loading of pages. So we ask that you do not use dynamic images in your sig. This rule also applies to avatars.

Yes there is, if you're hosting it on your own server you'll see how many times the picture is requested.

^^ this. I personally prefer using a click counter instead of a view counter because it means more imho.
