OK Guys,
signatures have been getting out of control, we love your photos and what not, but keep them small.
The mods and I are talking about sizes and what not, and we will be coming forth with a standard soon... we may remove graphics from signatures all together.
On the same note, I am thinking about re-instituting Custom Avatars, as a way for you to express your creative pleasures. However, Copyrighted use of logos and inapropriate material will result in an instant yank of your avatar, and depending on what it is, maybe a insta-ban. (Read porn or other disgusting violent or degrading material.)
I want your feedback, the Mods and I have the final decision on this, as it is one more thing to police... but I want you to let me know what you think.
Oh, and for now, all you guys with big honkin pictures out there, MAKE THEM SMALLER! (Use good judgement for now, if in doubt, ask others, even me or a mod.)
You may have a PM or e-mail about your sig file from a admin, if you do, don't argue please, just change. Just because you don't have a PM or e-mail, doesn't mean your good...
general rule of thumb, if your signature takes up to half of a normal posts length, or more (some of you have pictures as big as a post in itself!
then your out of bounds... the requirements we come up with will be even less.
Here is another way to tell if your signature is to long... if your actively posting in a topic and you have to scroll down to the bottom past twenty big pictures in your signature file, and your finger is getting tired... you need to tone it down..
Thanks all!
