Signature Reminder

[calidude]

Is my sig OK or should I change it? :unsure:

wait n/m don't answer that, the site is down anyway :p

[insanekiwi]

I just noticed someone with a sig that is an animated gif of 1.4mb in size.

What is the correct proceedure to report this? Or should it not even be reported?

i would report it. 1,4mb would take around 5 minutes of loading time on my dialup.

[enigma-penguin Veteran]

I also see quite often members using their sigs for ad space for their personal business, especially hosting companies.

There was a notice/warning issued about that a while ago, but maybe people have forgotten since then. (plus new people)

As far as that goes, simply report it, because as far as I can tell, its still against the rules.

[elliot]

Is my sig too flashy?

And I also made animated sigs for toejam, neomilan and drgrudge, will I have to change them? :cry:

They might not be flashy but they all exceed the 50KB limit.

Thank god...some of the sizes of sigs were starting to annoy me. I firmly believe that this rule should be STRONGLY enforced.

I agree, some of the sizes out there are extremely annoying and a huge waste of space and time to navigate down through the posts.

Report it.

Personally I find Neowin without sigs and avatars much prettier. :)

Click on their name to go into their profile, then copy and paste then PM a Super Mod (Green badges) or a Supervisor (Maroon badges) the link to their profile.

Delete your avatar and sig then! :whistle:

[Toastyone]

I think yours is too big.

It seems it'll be fine if you remove that quote.

585546467[/snapback]

But then you can't read the wisdom of Wickedkitten :no:

[eevoo]

Delete your avatar and sig then! :whistle:

585548153[/snapback]

Done. Happy? :p

[Toastyone]

There I shrunk it :p

[jokeripa]

Done. Happy? :p

0wnage... lol

Neowin looks better with sigs and avatars, gives users freedom to show off skillz, and give us a sense of individuality

[chmsant]

^ why did you bring this back after 2 months?

[Gelob]

I just adblocked your sig image, now it fits with the guidelines fine :rofl:

585546468[/snapback]

LOL

Ill be changing mine

:EDIT:

Rofl was a good idea. Had 2 fix mine

[Chad]

I don't know why the thread was brought back, but I'm glad it was. I can't speak for other Mods, but I won't notify anyone if their sig is too large anymore. It's getting quite old that people insist on putting these massive sigs up. If they don't have the courtesy to abide such a simple rule, I don't feel I need to notify them. I'll either remove the whole sig or edit it until it meets the criteria. If you continue to break the rule, you'll lose your sig privileges

I guess mine is too big then? :/ I think it is like 651x247 :wacko:

585546464[/snapback]

Delete your avatar and sig then! :whistle:

Your sigs are too large. If you see them edited, you know why

I put

Sig Guidelines - Joel

in place of the offending portion of the sig (whether all or part of it).

[Chad]

Nice. I like that better (Y)

I need some type of keyboard macro system to save me some repetitive typing...

Edit: There are also buttons in IPB for those that don't dream in BB Code.

[Chad]

Bahaha...thanks for that code. Not sure if I could have figured it out otherwise ;)

Now...where can i find a victim large signature

[Chode]

And what if Staff members breach these guidelines?

I mean, High ranking staff? :shifty:

:crazy: Graaa! Chad did you edit mine? Some mod did and they did not do it the right way! :laugh: they only took half the code off :rofl: Oh well when I made that post it had been too big but I had shrank it, I am pretty sure it was not oversized anymore.....oh well :ninja:
