View Full Version : New signature guidelines.

October 17th, 2004, 01:00 AM
We have noticed recently that some members are using several lines of text as well as an image in their sigs.This makes posts look untidy and also increases page scrolling,especially in long threads.
We have therefore amended the Forum Rules (http://www.techzonez.com/forums/showthread.php?t=615) regarding signature limits.
9.) Signature images are limited to a maximum 420x100 pixels,and 80kb in file size and you are allowed only one image. You are also limited to 1 line of text directly above or below your image.
Note: If you do not use an image you may use a maximum of 5 lines of text.(A blank line counts as 1 line)Please abide by this new rule,and any current members who have signatures above these new limits please make any necessary adjustments immediately.
Thanks.

I don't have an image in my sig, so the "1-line text" rule doesn't apply for me, right Rev?

What about image included in text link - and text below.If you use an image,regardless of size,you are allowed 1 line either above or below it.
So basically you cannot have an image "included" in a line of text.

Thanks to Z3N for the new Sig! :D
yep thanks to Z3N, nice sig & spec's you have there Conan ;)
Oh Conan ? could you do as Rev suggest and use the Hardware forum to post any upgrades....you know just in case Z3N doesn't have time to update your sig, we wouldn't want Lynch & Phish to wait any longer than necessary for FG parts :)

Sure! But no upgrades will be forthcoming until I land a new job.

My pleasure gentlemen.
If if you do get upgrades ( and/or a job ) conan, just let me know - I thought ahead on it and realised that it would eventually need updating so I saved it in layers, wouldn't take me longer than 5 minutes to update it.
I didn't quites realise how damn imposing that conan text is. . Gah !!
Its still within the TZ guide lines conan, but i feel I should tone it down a little, its a bit in ya face.
Or do you like it like that size ??:confused:??
Just let me know if you want any changes.

Is there any way to center my image over the links without centering everything? Or can this be allowed (I know it's not the "text above or below" rule but it's so small anyway - but then again, you know how often I change my sig.....)
