I'm just curious how people feel about this. Please, feel free to post and elaborate on your answer.

I mainly only use this to show bandages, healing wounds, bruises and things like that.

I do enjoy those of you who use it to show different styles for your hair though.    ;)

I was actually unaware there was a limit to the length of tdesc until you posted this.

I want a longer ldesc myself.   ;D

I'm good with 320 characters (four full lines and then some). An average description is probably 7-10 lines so adding four or five more at most isn't much of a burden. Most people probably add one or two.

On a slightly related note, I think some people need to remember to break up their lines though. Some tdescs I see stretch across the screen. A different kind of length, but one that can appear spammy to people with different clients.

I plan to go wild with it. Bandages, wounds, hair, face paint, anything. I love it. My main descs are not that long anyway and I think people usually read the bottom part first.

Tdesc is possibly one of the best commands ever, just sayin.

I do like to seperate it from my mdesc with one line, to make it stand out a bit more since I figure most people only skim mdescs.

I voted no complaints.  I use it a lot, and have never hit the limit.

I use it mostly for hair or other things that change, though.  Occasionally I put noticeable wounds/strange shit.

The only time I have hit the limit is with pregnancy.
