Q. Why are there size restrictions on signatures?
A. Although we love them too, a signature is merely intended as a shortening to your posts. It will appear underneath every post you make on the forum and should be as minimal as possible to avoid threads getting messy. Large signatures or lengthy passages of text are unnecessary, distracting and take forever to load for users who don’t have broadband. Signatures that are too big will be removed without notice.
Q. Why has my signature been removed?
A. If your signature exceeds the signature guidelines below then it will be removed. These limits are here to make the forum as easy to browses possible, massive signatures slow things down for other users.
Q. What are the current signature size limits?
A. The maximum allowed signature graphic size is 500x150 pixels, which should be more than enough: -
Your signature will be removed if it:
1. is larger than the above mentioned size limits
2. Contains several 'stacked' images that total in size to more than the above mentioned size limits
3. Contains links to commercial products or services, including other websites - so NO advertising!
4. Is overly distracting - i.e. bright flashing images etc.
5. Contains links to illegal content or anything naughty
6. Contains images of an unsuitable or adult nature
7. Contains more than 500 characters of text
Q. I want a signature image; can I host it on SlimmingWorld Club?
A. No. You will need to upload the image to an image host like servimg or Photobucket in order to use it on the forum in your signature.
Q. My signature is only slightly over the limit ? Can't you let me off ?
A. NO!
Q. How large can my profile quote be ?
You can have up to 150 characters (including spaces) in your profile quote in addition to the graphic space… that’s about 5 or 6 lines worth of text!
