Exclamation Siggy Size Limits - PLEASE READ

we love seeing all your great siggies, especially the monthly theme pictures but are now implementing some size limitations to help keep this forum running smoothly.

1. your main image should be no larger than 500 x 350 pixels.

that is this size:


2. you are allowed no more than 3 tickers in your sig

so far that is it but these limits may change.

thanks for your understanding in this matter.

Thanks for giving an actual visual! I am not so good with visualizing.

If we already have one that is bigger...will we need to take it off? I've only just put mine up! Have no idea how to make it smaller!!

Away to look into it! :)

Excellent idea! And, I agree with Jessica, that is still a very generous size!

Default Re: Siggy Size Limits

Is it to cut down on what's loaded on the forum or to keep the pictures from taking up so much of the screen?

I'm asking because I host my siggy pic on photobucket. I try to make it wide, but not too tall so there is less scrolling involved.

My last was 720 x 288. Would something like that be OK? I could make it even shorter & a little longer too so it takes less scrolling.

I just ask because I think a rectangular siggy pic fits the screen a little better. I agree with a siggy pic size limit. I always try to keep mine compact.
