Hi

You just need to use some more nodes. Basically you need to connect a multiplyDivide node to one scale axis. Then connect the multiplyDivide to you scale node. So that length of the stretched joints are always in proportion to size of the character. There's a few other things you need to look out for.

Check out this thread (http://jonhandhisdog.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=1502&hl=scale) for a little overview on the process, with a mini tutorial by rigging101's authors Lluis and Javier.
