Admin Note to Everyone - REMINDER - Avatar and Sigs
Posted: Fri Aug 28, 2009 12:53 amAvatars are to be no larger than 100x100. We'll let it slide a little, but right now there are way too many giant avatars out there that are changing the size of the message board. The board is not currently resizing. If yours is significantly larger, I'm probably going to clean it up at the end of the month. "Clean it up" means delete it. So please resize it on your own.
Sig images are also getting way out of control. The rules are no larger than "500 pixels wide and 100 pixels high". That's plenty, so no leniency there. Again, please fix by the end of the month or I will simply delete them. If there are repeat offenses, I'll have to turn off your member privilege to have avatars or sigs at all.
And I'm sure I don't have to remind you that you are not to remote link to someone else's hosted image for your avatar, your sig or any other image you use. If you find something you want to share, host it yourself. If you find it here and want to share it elsewhere, you should ask for permission. Then download it and host it yourself. Since 2004, the rule has been: "Everyone gets one warning, and if you insist on linking to images again, you're banned."
Thanks in advance.
