There are have been some questions about signature rules lately. Here's a new thread to explain it. While most of this is the same information that has been previously posted, some of it is re-worded to make sure everything is clear. Please read all the way through as some rules have been added.
The picture rules apply to signatures only, you can still post big pictures in the photos forum.
You may save these .jpg images to make sure your signature conforms to the rules.
1) Only two tickers of the allowed type are permitted.
2) Only 4 forum provided smilies are allowed.
3) Only 3 pictures are allowed.
The max size for pictures is:
300x300 pixels combined physical size.
What does combined physical size mean?
300x300 = 90,000 pixels.
So does 450x200 Etc.
So long as your image fits into the total signature size (see #5) and does not exceed 90,000 pixels, you are in compliance.
While 300x300 is the max size for a photo this does not mean you may have three 300x300 photos as that is greater than the total siganture size allowance. Please keep that in mind.
Examples:
300x300

450x200

4) Only 1 small blinky and 1 custom blinkie per signature:
The max size is 200x200 pixels:

5) The max size for the total signature, this includes, text, tickers, smileys, etc is 500x400 pixels, this is much larger than many other forums:

6) Staff will ultimately decide if something is appropriate or not.
7) No signatures may include a message intending to disrupt the peace and harmony of this board.
8) No signatures may include text or images that are obscene, vulgar, hateful, threatening, racist, sexist, discriminatory, and/or otherwise violates of any local or international laws.
9) Signatures violations are not to be discussed in threads on the board. If you see a signature in violation, PM a staff member or report a post made by that member with the reason: Signature Violation.
If you have any questions regarding these rules please PM a staff member.
This thread will be bumped occasionally when deemed necessary by a staff member.
