Due the excessive space taken up by some signatures we have come to the decission to limit signatures to just 5 lines of standard sized text or one picture/gif (maximum size of 100k or 400x300 pixels) and 2 lines of text, large text should be treated as a picture and limited to 2 lines. If your signature exceeds this please alter it to within the new guidelines ASAP. Failure to amend signatures will result in moderator edits.
Information regarding fish stocks and tank specs can be placed in the section provided for this in your personal profiles. For those with large pictures they wish to keep this site http://www.irfanview.com/ may be able to help with reformating them to a suitable size without loss of quality. We are sorry for any inconvienience this may cause but of late signatures have become increasingly large and action has had to have been taken to rectify this. Thanks, the moderating team. |

I'm not sure how to get the picture on the side that goes with your name, any one a pro at that could give some instructions?

the picture that goes under your name is called your "Avatar".
click on your member name to go to your profile. scroll all the way down the page to where it says "Avatar Options". it's pretty well self-explanatory after that. |

Cheers x URL is uniform resource locator (for goodness sake   ) it means the web address if you have them stored that way or simply where the pics are kept on your pc.It's not being thick, remember there's no such thing as a silly question, simply a question you dont know the answer to (trainer's qualification coming out here!!  )

Does anyone actually do anything about member's sig's being too lengthy/large? It seems like EVERYONE has rediculously long sig's listing all of thier tanks contents and it takes you 3 times as long to read a thread because you spend all your time scrolling through the mess. Frusteraiting, in my book. It seems to me that there are those who are polite and heed the guidelines on signatures, and others who blatently ignore them and I was just wondering if anyone (mods I'd assume?) does anything about it?

Just disable signatures in your options. Problem solved (for you at least !)
