View Full Version : Images in signatures are turned back on but there has to be some guidelines

With the new server, I think it will be able to handle the load.

1 or 2 photo limit, and try to keep it under 50k in size (so you could have 2 25k images). The smaller the images in kb the better.

Report any signature violators via the 'Report this post' link. Violators will receive *1* warning, if you violate it a 2nd time you will have your signature removed and you will no longer be allowed to edit your profile.

Thanks TJ. Maybe now people will realize that they can't take this board for granted. If they had just shut up about it and complied, there wouldn't have been any argueing and they would have had their images back in less than a week. :lol:

What's happening with email notification? Is it just me who's not getting those, or is it not working?

You can check the size of the photo by right clicking on a photo and then hit properties.. For example, that photo in Brandon's signature is over 90k.. he probably is going to have to reduce that.

I understand that you have resource limitations that can't just be wished away, and that when you come up against the limits of your resources, something's got to give. It's nice of you to provide SO for us in the first place.

Check the user control panel again. When I went there about a couple minutes ago it said the img code is on.

You are directly linking to lisawhelchel.com - they probably don't let you do that anymore.. You need to upload the photo here and link it that way. Your image shows up blank.

Do attach file then right-click on the photo and click on properties. Get the url (you'll have to scroll down a little to get the whole thing).

Why don't you just highlight the url, right-click it, hit copy, and then hit paste when you insert it?

I don't recall her family going to see the Jefferson Memorial, I wonder if they didn't because, in spite of Jefferson being one of the greatest presidents and finest minds in American history, was a little too "unChristian" for them? He was a Deist and freethinker.

You're fine. Check the properties, it says 20011 bites, which means 20kb (k = thousand). You're under the limit.

I still can't figure out how to get my siggy pic to work...:confused:

So now I'm having this problem where every once in a while the picture comes on, then it's off. I checked the properties again, and it's all different numbers and letters...:confused:

TJ
07-06-2003, 10:13 PM
You aren't doing it right.. it can't have all those extra numbers and letters in it..

Greg, I am fixing your photo now. Do not change anything! :)

ABlairican Pie
07-06-2003, 10:19 PM
Actually, what happened is that before, all those numbers and letters at the end didn't come up. And I even copied and pasted the URL in the properties and had just the last eight numbers. Very strange...:confused:

:thanks: for fixing my picture!! Also, was the quote at the end too long?

ABlairican Pie
07-07-2003, 12:30 AM
So the image came back on after TJ changed it. So I leave and come back and the picture's gone. I don't think it has anything to do with adding the siggy quote, because it worked fine after he fixed it. Why does it keep doing that?:confused:

Darkweaver
07-07-2003, 02:25 AM
TJ, how's my sig? It's really only two pictures. The one on the sides are the same. Also, both pics are very small in file size ranging from 5-6 kbs. Besides, I'm on dial-up so believe me when I say I don't want to wait minutes for my own sig to load. Heh.
