Signature Rules

[CFC]

Due the excessive space taken up by some signatures we have come to the decission to limit signatures to just 5 lines of standard sized text or one picture/gif (maximum size of 100k AND 400px wide x 300px tall) and 2 lines of text, large text should be treated as a picture and limited to 2 lines. If your signature exceeds this please alter it to within the new guidelines ASAP. Failure to amend signatures will result in moderator edits.
Information regarding fish stocks and tank specs can be placed in the section provided for this in your personal profiles.

For those with large pictures they wish to keep this site [URL="http/www.irfanview.com/"]http/www.irfanview.com/[/URL] may be able to help with reformating them to a suitable size without loss of quality.

We are sorry for any inconvienience this may cause but of late signatures have become increasingly large and action has had to have been taken to rectify this.

Thanks, the moderating team.

By excessive size do you mean physical size or file size.

 

[CFC]

Isn't that a little small for stating all of your tanks and fish? I crunched mine.

 

[demonmagus]

you're meant to put tank info and whatever in your profile

 

[tetraman]

Yeah. Most people aren't going to go in your profile just to see what kind of fish you have.

if they're interested, they will. if they aren't intersted, they won't read your signature either. also if you need to refer to your stocking lis, you just say "check my profile", or post it directly in your post.

I don't know that much about what physical size or file size the signature should be - but I do think there should be a rule banning signatures with a video of someone having a glass bottle thrown at their face!

But hey - I'm just picky like that

Turning off signatures is great.. I was one of the ones annoyed with everyones 20 line signatures, so I just turned them off..

Much better that way.

good point

gets ridiculous some these "signatures" keep it your profile thats what i say, all we want to read on the actual forum is your post, not your signautre (unless its fairly brief), it just takes up uneccesary space and most of them are very boring anyway LOL

I like how some sigs have peoples tanks info. It helps you to know their experience right away.
