Outstanding issues with avatars & signatures - read!

Recommended Posts

In light of the recent changes to the rules with regard to signatures, I'd like to take this opportunity to ensure users and not violating the rules that have been created for the use of avatars and signatures in particular. For future reference, the current pixel size limit for avatars is 120x120 and it's 475x125 for signature images. In addition to this, there is only to be one image in any given signature unless additional images are authorised by a moderator or site admin.

Below is a list of members who currently have an issue with their avatars or signatures which violates the rules. This is not a complete list and may not include everyone affected, however, I would ask you to inform me via Private Message (PM) if you notice any others that are not on this list and should be. If your name is here, please correct the issue mentioned within one day. If the issues have not been resolved by yourself within one day, the image(s) in question will be removed by a site admin. After this, you will be free to add a new image to the section in question, although, as normal, the new image should not violate the rules either. Please ensure this applies before you add a new avatar or signature, otherwise your new avatar or signature will be removed and you may be warned, as this could be seen as an act of defiance for the rules in place.

If you see anyone on the list that you have contact with via instant messenger or other contact medium, please inform them and ask them to visit the site to remove or replace the offending image to avoid losing it.

In all cases, certain exclusions may apply. These will be at moderator and site admin discretion. Complaints about these exclusions will not be justified, nor will they be taken lightly.

Something I neglected to mention in my original post:

"This is effective as of 2am GMT on the 23rd of February 2005, which is 9pm EST, 8pm CST, 7pm MST and 6pm PST on the 22nd of February 2005."

yankeexdev, your new signature image looks nice. Thanks. :)

Just a quick question, and don't get mad at me for this i am just wondering ok. Why all the fuss about avatars and sig's???

They don't need to be TOO big and one is enough...

Also, some people run their monitors at a 800*600 resolution...

And some people started whining about other people having too much Sigs or too big Sigs, and that got us to where we are now...

I don't care, my screen is at 1152 * 864, so it's all good on mine...

SwinginSoriano - Avatar is 90x135. You got until 7pm GMT (2pm EST etc.) tomorrow (24th) to change it.

And since you've addded a new image to your signature, which is 310x199, that can be changed before then as well.

Jabroni - 2 signature images, both 156x220. You only have until 2am GMT on the 24th (which is 9pm EST, 8pm CST, 7pm MST and 6pm PST on the 23rd) to change it, as you actually added one after the new signature rule was added.

Ever tried PM'ing 20 people at once about the exact same thing? It's not easy.

No offense taken, but it's crazy. I'm continually sending people PM's asking them to change their avatars (and now signatures) because they are too large. This way, it gets them all in one fell swoop, as it were.

OK, since some people seem to have conveniently forgotten the rules about this, here are some reminders.

The rules are still in effect.

Unless approved, only 1 signature image is allowed.

Said signature image is to be no bigger than 475x125.

Are they really that hard to obey? It's not like you're being asked not to breathe.
