Signature graphics, FTE guidelines
There has been a recent trend in this section of huge graphic files being inserted into signatures. While they are arguably nice, signatures which can be seen from orbit really aren't browse friendly to other users especially those with lower screen resolutions.
From our guidelines:
6. Signatures . Please do not post overly large or obnoxious signatures. Users are here to read the content, not to be annoyed by your signature.
Please folks... tone them down so we don't have to resort to hard guidelines. Its like "flare" --- express yourself but don't go over the top!

I'll take fault for this since I'm the one that's making these signature pictures. I think the one that sparked this thread was the one I made for eco, and I only did that because his current signature is disgusting and offensive. Why have you not moderated his sig pic yet?
Anyways, what size would you like me to limit these sig pics at, Ken? I've been trying to make them LOOONNG and short but sometimes its tough. Seems to me that as long as they aren't super tall then there's no problem, right? Gimme a number and I'll keep it toned down.
As for Jr (flareside thunder)'s sig pic, I thought that one was rather compact in terms of its vertical dimension... Is his really that big?

How do you expect users to understand what that blanket statement means? You need to at least set some form of a guideline. As in 'whatever x whatever' dimensions.

agreed - we've been trying to keep them rather small. if you have a dimensions (pixels) guideline, i think we'd all be happy to follow it.
as for my signature, i'd love to have both of my images (my pic and the folding at home image) on the same line....if someone can figure that out

no code, just try to get 2 images to show up on the same line ....can't be done. once you get 1 image, it automatically bumps you to the second line

Even though Ken did not mention any names as to whom he is specifically referring to, my gut tells me that Skan's sig is the main rule breaker, and possibly mine too (which Skan helped me make).
Ken, if you do consider mine a rule breaker let me know and I (with Skan's help) will come up with something else or just get by without one.

For the record, I took no part in the making/posting/recommended/ANYTHING of eco's current signature. I did however post an alternate signature (which he requested from me) to replace his current HIDEOUS sig. This is the one I posted which for some reason has now been deleted, I'm assuming because its too tall:
I think it's rather comedic But perhaps it IS too tall to be a sig pic. Still fun to look at though

you are on your way to being thrown off the fte forum.

you just do not understand that fte has rules.
no matter what anyone says you do whatever you want and than you reason it out in your special way.
it is all getting very tiring.
