After a rash of very, very large pics being used as avatars or included in sig files, we're going to be providing some more concrete rules for what is an acceptable size for your images.
In the future the Mod Squad may ask people to adjust their images if it comes to our attention that your avatar or sig file has grown beyond the bounds of politeness. Right now we're just asking that people take a look at their files and voluntarily dial them down to the new standards if they're not there already. Conforming to these guidelines should keep images from breaking the forums and making it less difficult or unpleasant for people to navigate through threads. Your understanding is, as always, greatly appreciated.
Your avatar should be no more than 150 x150 pixels if square. For example:
If your avatar image is a tall orientation, such as a figure of a superhero, it should be no larger than 150 x 250 pixels. For example:
If you wish to include an image in your sig file, it should be no larger than 400 x 125 pixels. For example:
Thank you!
