    I've posted up two sigs in the last 2 weeks.

    The first one I made a bags up and put it up at the wrong size.

    The second one I resized it using[URL="http://www.imageshack.us/imageshack/[/URL] to 150X112 but again I've been told that is been to big.

    Sig Rules state
    All signatures should not exceed the following size limits, and you can't have both text and images.

    For text signatures: 4 lines normal size OR 8 lines small size, and up to 90 chars per line. Font sizes above 2 are not allowed. Do not use the [.quote] [./quote] tags.
    For images in signatures: 1 image up to 300 pixels wide, 125 pixels tall and 20k in size. No animated images are allowed.

    I had the same sig hosted on the members sction of boards with out any bother.

    Can the mod who removed my sig tell me why it was removed? Gona host it again but I wana do it right this time!

    Do you have a link to the image in question?

    If I can have a look at it I can probably work out what might have been the problem.

    Sig rules is 300x125
    Your sig is 320x111

    Maybe someone is being a little picky over 20px :confused:


  • Registered Users Posts: 23,216 ✭✭✭✭monkeyfudge


    Yeah... it was still over the 300 pixel wide limit at 320.

    I've sized it down... it should be acceptable for the SigPo now...

    The technical term for that image is "2big".

    I'd clip the right hand side to keep the width at 300 and the images inside would then be centered more.

    Yeah I just checked it when I found the image again.

    I've hosted another image but as you can see its tiny (150x112).

    How do you resize images so I can use the full allowance?

    Thanks very much for that. I thought I had saved it at the right size but I messed up some where between my computer and imageshack!

    Ok resized the orginal image and hosted it again. Its now 300X125 so hopefully all shoule be good now

    My signature was removed... can any mods tell me why?? It consisted of a logo of an Islamic symbol reading 'Another Muslim for Peace' and 2 Chuck Norris lines. problem??????? Its been there for ages...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 36,634 ✭✭✭✭Ruu_Old


    @InFront, I believe it was too tall (over 125px in height, which is the limit)
