Avatar and Signature Guidelines:

* Maximum avatar size is 100 x 100 pixels and 50 KB.
* Each of your signature images should not be wider than 500 pixels or taller than 200 pixels.
* Your whole signature's height should not be greater than 300 pixels so it's recommended you use only 1 large sig image.
* Total size of signature images must not exceed 200 KB.
* No BMP images please. Please optimize your images to JPEG and GIF formats. PNGs are allowed as long as you consider the maximum file size limits.
Please check your avatars and sigs. We're not very strict though when it comes to the file size or height of the signature so it's okay if you exceed with an extra 5 KB or 10 pixels. These are just guidelines.

There'll be no punishment but an admin or mod might warn you so I advise everyone to read and follow this. It's here to keep this forum a clean and organized place for all fans. :)

S. Espoire:
isn't it that if you use a sign bigger than the given size then it will be shunk by itself according to the limit? that way we won't really have to care much about its size.
I hope mine are all under the rules because i hadn't read these before.

D.J.P:
Its not so much display size (as this is adjusted) - its file size, the full size image still has to be retrived.

I'm bumping this up so that those new to the forum plus all existing members know about the size limits of signatures here. Most are starting to become borderline and we've been pretty easy-going with it for now. That could change soon...

Little Wolf:
^ It surely will with the new rules.
