DOC forum rules - stunned_monkey - 14 Aug 2009
Just read the forum rules that were edited recently and double checked this part:
Quote:Signatures & Avatars
Avatars should be maximum 100x100 pixels. Signature blocks or text should fit within a maximum dimension of 640 pixels wide x 80 pixels high. Images and text within signatures and avatars should not contain anything considered offensive and may not be used to advertise other sites, services or products unless authorised by the DOC (UK) admin team.
I'd just like to point out that a large number of club officials, including the secretary, are falling foul of this rule (Chris, your sig is 130 pixels high), and that in the wording above, this rule is not subject to admin discretion, only the content of the signature is.
Was this perchance a typo and it is meant to read 640 x 480 ?

Possibly, This does need to be checked and corrected. Thanks for pointing this out Martin

Probably not, 640 being the width which is perfect as is, any longer and some users may end up having to scroll sideways just because of sigs.
80 being the hight, Which is also right, i dont want to a whole page of a sig

Just re read this, Sorry I thought you meant the Avatar, At the end of the day so long as it's a sensible size then I dont think there will be to much objection. It was really to stop the silly ones. i.e a recent one was a flag that was 15 x 10cm this is clearly not acceptable (dont know what that was in pixels!) Hope this clears this up for you.
