FYI: New signature rules

Gizzmoe · 06-10-07, 09:28 AM

Hi! Here are the new rules regarding signatures.

The maximum allowed size for signature images is 400x120, the signature filesize must not exceed 100kB (under 50kB is preffered), and the whole signature must not be higher than 150 pixels. Animated sigs are allowed.

If you are unsure if your signature is within those limits, please post a message here and a moderator will check it, or use the below examples for comparison.

If your current signature is only 20% wider and/or 10% higher than allowed you don´t need to change it.

This is an example of a 400x120 signature:

This is a signature that´s about 150 pixels high:

No, it´s almost 200 pixels high. Change it to this and also make sure that there are no blank lines after the text, currently you have about 3 or 4:

"Running silent, running deep, we are your final prayer / Warriors in secret sleep, a merchantman's nightmare
A silent death lies waiting for all of you below / Running silent, running deep, sink into your final sleep"

- Iron Maiden "Run silent, Run deep / No prayer for the dying" (1992)

For the record, I tweaked mine down to 132 pixels high; invoking the '10% more than' law.

Sorry Gizzmoe. I'll have to size it down. I was trying to include my record score and SH4 results are much wider than SH3.
