First topic message reminder :
Hello everyone! Me and the other mods talked about some members having over-sized signatures. Well, if you don't know what is the max of the size of a signature, maybe try visiting the rules topic. Our signatures shouldn't be big so that people wouldn't have a hard time scrolling down just because of the sizes of your signatures...
But here's a tip, if you don't know how to resize your signature, try going to Flickr or Photobucket. I don't know about photobucket, but I will tell you all how to resize it on Flickr.
~Flickr~ Sign up first, if you have signed up, then lets proceed to step 2. I am sure that Flickr will give you a tour.
Then, upload your signature! Its up to you if you wanted it to be private or public. If you have uploaded it, click the picture.
If you are there on the picture, right-click then you will see certain sizes like [Meduim 500, Medium 800,etc.] It would be better to click 500, then when you click it, to get the url, right-click then copy url. GC Users: Copy URL IE Users: Properties, then copy the link adress Firefox Users: Copy Image Location
Then there! You have it in a smaller size but in a high quality! The resolution and quality would be like my signature, having that resolution and quality is great right?
So, this topic is mainly about the over-sized signatures, please PM us mods for help, ok? I do hope this works, but if you still don't understand, try to PM me since I wrote that tutorial...
NOTE: IF the Medium 640 is like 640x364 or 365, etc; I suggest you go to paint and crop it, you can as well see how big it is. It should be 630x360. Try cropping the bottom or upper part.
ONE MORE THING! Since many people are asking us if their sig is in the right size, how about I tell you all how to know whats the size of your sig is.
1. Go to MS Paint. Then look at the bottom part with its length and width (i.e. 640x360) 2. You may ask assistance to me and the other mods about re-sizing OR telling if it is enough or oversized. 3. You may also ask us where or how to re-size.
Thank you for reading this!

See the difference? Well, you may go to Flickr or Photobucket for your image to have a better quality!

^ I agree, but maybe I should tell everyone to ask me or the other mods about the signature... All you just gotta do is go to MS paint! As simple as that.

Also, I would also consider limiting the signature to one image each; not just 1/2.
All members should only have one image in their signature. Not only does image dimensions matter, but image quantity does also.
It's not very healthy to have like 4-5 images in your signature. That is also another problem in the signatures.
What do you guys think?

There actually is a limit of 2 images, and both of them have to be within 640x360. For example, you could have 2 images but both images could be 320x180, so that adds to 640x360 all together.
Although I think it would be better to limit it to one though since that rule is kinda hard to understand and people don't seem to pay attention
