Ever noticed that NC lags when you want to open a certain page?
Well its because of some people's really really image heavy and big sized sigs.

D;

So, a new rule shall be implied on this site. I know there's a rule for signatures under the rules, but it needs to be refined, since we have really cool graphics artists on the site wanting to showcase off their awesome sigs. ;D

Signatures requirement (This is just a skeleton of how it should be, since I'm lenient, I'll make a few exceptions):
- Maximum of 4 lines of text.
- Maximum of 2 banners/images that can be on the same line as long as they fit the size requirements
(you cannot substitute an image for a line, vice versa)


This means you can have a maximum of 6 lines. (4 text + 2 images)

* Each line must be short enough that it doesn't wrap. The maximum number of characters per line varies depending on the font size you use. The limits are listed below and remember that spaces count~!
size=1 : 140
size=2 : 125
size=3 : 110
Mixed : 125
* Maximum width for each banner/image = 400 pixels
* Maximum height for each banner/image = 175 pixels
* Maximum file size for each banner/image = 150KB


There's a loose rule for those people with awesome graphics to showcase out there.
You can have a big sized graphic but only ONE is allowed.
Maximum width : 530 pixels
Maximum height : 230 pixels
Maximum file size : 200 KB


(You can right-click an image and hit "properties" to figure out width, height, and size. Don't hunt the mods down if you violate the rules & we delete your sig and/or get warnings.)

Since this enforced rule is new, you are given a grace period of ONE WEEK to fix up your sigs, follow the requirements.
After one week, warn PMs will be issued out to those offenders. If the offender doesn't fix their sig, we will warn them + delete their sig.
So, fix your sig as soon as possible so that NC loads faster.

** Edit:
As long as your sig doesn't go over the automatic post size like Archie said, which is more or less like the skeleton provided above.
But...... if you got alot of stuff you wanna have in your sigs, put them in spoiler tags, but remember the automatic post size rule.
That means, spoiler tags in spoiler tags. =D

Don't worry, the mods won't bite ninja.gif. Or at least I know I won't happy.gif

Okay.... so, what do you all think about it?
