Signatures + Avatars

[Enderfish]

Edit: Alright, I'll humor you and pretend that your signature displays the way you wanted it to.

It's still in violation of the size policy, this time width-wise.

bbr, I'd hope if you were going to be policing signatures you'd make sure your own isn't in violation first.

[GreySkies]

Am I wrong in thinking that the signature policy applies to the size of image signatures only?

[Deleted]

Nah, states somewhere it's the same for quotes and text aswell.

I think it's getting a tad ridiculous tho, reporting people who have gone 1-2 pixels over :/

Maximum amount of images, quotes and text in your signature: As much as you can fit within the other rules.

All MMOcluster signatures should be removed aswell then, as it's 5pixels over the allowed size.


http://www.mmo-champion.com/profile/?u=96714 sig too big.


edit: sig too big (626px × 181px)

[Sidonis]

Thanks for the edit, I'm glad that the humorous achievement generator gifs are 5 pixels too big for someone's PDA so they can browse MMO Champs during a meeting instead of paying attention to their job.

Going back to World of Raids as of today.

I don't know where you got that meeting stuff from but our rules are there for a reason.

[Melonberry]

You may want to change the character limit on the sig box, since using half of it on text puts you way over the size limit.

[Indilgo]

Above has a pretty good point.

[NonMagical]

My signature was removed as well and it had only 1 simple thing in it (a quote from Ghost Crawler using the blizzquote tags). Nowhere in the rules does it say I can't have that. It was 2 sentences long...

"YOUR FORTUNE: A mod will find a stupid reason to delete your sig."

HOW DID YOU KNOW?

[Punks]

There is a way to NOT show Sigs and avatars for the mobile users but it requires something on MMOC side.

[Punks]

Wait, are you saying that this sig bullshit is all about people browsing on their cell phones?

/facepalm

Lazy web developer is lazy

Apparently it is.... Don't see why it's a big deal. Would take one HTML code and no more sigs/avatars for Mobile users.
And if your using a 600x800 128 Ram with 100megs of Space, than why are you even at a site that your comp can't play (and if it is your 2nd comp use your main one, or wait til you get home.)

I like the look of "most" sigs. However moving avatars should go away.

[Deleted]

We have rules and guidelines for this forum. Those includes signatures and avatars.

If we find signatures or avatars that are breaching those rules, we will remove them. Us actually PM-ing the signature or avatar back to the user is a service and not a given thing. We do not *have* to do it. I personally only do it when I think the signature in question had a lot of effort in it, and perhaps with a few edits it could be made into compliance with our rules.

This thread wasn't made to discuss the signature and avatar guidelines. I believe it was left unlocked to report users with sigs or avatars that are too big.

[TallanX]

Gotta agree here. I find a lot of intresting Sigs when reading the froums. Some are large ya but lots have funny things in them or a intresting pic. Looks really bland out there now.

*Edit* Also I find it odd that I read the site every day and this is the first time I am seeing this now when the topic was created back in Nov... Miss the front page much did we? Would have been a great idea to post a link on the front page so all users can see it as they loaded the page up. I would also like to mention that I think people using their phones for stuff like this is a bit... silly. Nothing on here is THAT important that I would ever need to check it on my phone.

[Deleted]

The thing is there is no way to check if our sig fits with in the guide lines. I can't eyeball it and count every pixel to make sure it fits.

Right click the image and go to properties. This will give you the dimension and the file size of the signature or any other image. I hope this helped.

[Skiball]

So my sig was nothing more than an armory link with "Bring back Shockadin" on it. That does not break any rules nor offend anyone other than the people who would get owned by a holy paladin back in BC.

Lets not go crazy with a witch hunt and false reports please.

[TallanX]

Hes talking about a image + text under it which would make it larger then the pxiel allowed. You can't eyeball the extra distance with the text added unless you use an external source on the page. Thus your not able to see if your sig breaks the limit. Pics are easy to tell yes, pics + lines of text not so much.

[NonMagical]

Yeah, some of us had simple quotes in our signature. We can't simply right click on it to check the size or pixel count.
