Signature Size Guidelines
-
-
Any signatures seen that are not adhering to the guidelines described below will be edited down, without notice, at a moderator’s discretion.
-
In the event that common sense does not prevail and stupidly large signatures are still being used, a static size limit will be enforced in the forum configuration for all users. As this can sometimes be irritable, we would prefer this to be a last resort.
As a guideline, signatures should include no more than the size of a single line, standard-size horizontal banner, and three lines of text. (My own is pushing the maximum tolerable size).
This should be no larger than around 200 pixels combined. (Take a screen snip and check the height in the file properties / details page, or simply PM a moderator if you are concerned).As previously mentioned, if some users continue to fail to grasp that this is a game discussion forum, NOT Bebo / [generic profile whoring site here], we will enforce a static limit for all users. The focus should be on your posts, not your signature.
Examples of acceptable signature sizes:
-(Preferable)–---------------------------------------------------------
Good clans don’t just consist of good players, they consist of good people
@StijnVKralingen
–--------------------------------------------------------------------------(1 Image & 3 lines should be enough)–--------------------
Interitus - Duels click to connect
1st Place - North American 2v2 Tournament
1st Place - North American 8v8 TO Tournament
–-------------------------------------------------------------------------(Steam banners are ok to mix, use this small one though)–-
–------------------------------------------------------------------------We would appreciate your cooperation. Be aware that these guidelines are also now part of the Chivalry Forum Rules.

As to the above, use your common sense.
We’re not going to delete anything or ban anyone for 202 pixels, however some of the sigs on here are completely taking the p** and take up over half my screen on a 24" monitor.
I would hope that common decency is respected so we can keep some general freedom with sizes and creativity. :)

Just a reminder that this rule is now in effect.
