Title: Banner Crackdown
Description: Read, Acknowledge, and Correct


Enigma Zero - September 27, 2004 06:14 AM (GMT)
Ok, rather than send a huge amount of PM lemme just make this one simple thread to explain the situation, and get things back on track.

If you have one of these in your Sig...

- Signatures must be within the height limit of two inches.

...then it means you broke the rule and I removed your sig. All you have to do to correct this is resize the image to meet the proper guidelines and then repost it. Simple enough really.

Now I know what some of you are going to say about this,"You removed my sig and not _____." Yeah, you're probably right. I probably missed a few in the 1st swipe, but rest assured that this was not a one time deal.

If you have a banner that is over 2 inches in height then consider this your friendly warning to adjust the situation on your own terms. Next time I might replace them all with Teletubbies pics put measures into place to keep them there for a while.

Just a minor problem to correct and nobody is going to be drawn and quartered over it.....yet.

I now return you to your previously scheduled CP: TCG Forum....already in progress. :angel:

What's the rules on 2 banners?

Enigma Zero - September 27, 2004 06:23 AM (GMT)
Presently there aren't any. The main problem with some of the images people were using was the fact that certain examples were absolutely huge. If you use 1-2 short banners it's not nearly as bad as one that's around 6 inches due to the fact that some people have them at ridiculous filesizes which are slowing down the ability for certain members to enjoy these forums.

My own banners, for example, add up to roughtly 2.5 inches if you combined them into one image and combined have a filesize of 110k. ;)

I wouldn't say they would, but what if a mod has a sig over 2 inches? Would you still put in the message?

TOYI1SOCCER - September 27, 2004 11:52 AM (GMT)
guys mods are not carrying over 2 inches siggies.

let's stop comparing BTW members, just everyone take responsability and try to follow the rules to the fullest.

Just think that you are doing us a hughe favor. B)

Actually TOYI is right Oplasma, but for the sake of arguement....yes I would. Then I would go to our ultra top secret Mod forums and probably poke fun at them about it, something I would not publically do to a member. :lol: ;) :lol:

You'll never take me alive copper

TOYI1SOCCER - September 27, 2004 09:20 PM (GMT)
Please TCG members, if you are considering to put a banner or a siggy bigger that 2 inches tall, you may ask mod/adm to reduce it for you so you can still use it.
(not sure who can handle that) but maybe Enigma zero or voltei can

just comunicate... don't just throw stuff and stuff to the siggy space, you can also take some time to make it very organized and cool looking under those 2 inches.

Just look at my St Seiya banner is less than one inche and is cool!! lol (Crystal some advertising for you) B) :ninja:

i did not know that this site was a dictorship. follow my rulle or i am goin to delete your thing. i think somebody is have a bad day

Taz L. Gonzales - September 27, 2004 09:50 PM (GMT)
well, its worked well enough, hasnt it? i like to think that this place is at least a relatively successful message board. without the rules, who knows how long itd last. big siggys get real annoying real fast. so we get rid of them.

DarkNess - September 27, 2004 09:55 PM (GMT)
i am new so i don't kno but how big is big

Taz L. Gonzales - September 27, 2004 09:57 PM (GMT)

Hey someone now how it is.

TOYI1SOCCER - September 28, 2004 12:00 AM (GMT)
Guys, I know nobody likes people telling them what to do, but please understand..
Is easy to understand when we are open to cooperate.. :P also reflects some maturity on your behalf...
Siggies are not the Most important thing on board, but they do make the board slower.. B)

I beg you!

Now, taking the Benny idea further.

Imagine if all of us sent 100 PM's about Benny to Enigma Zero at the same time?


gymnast22 - October 5, 2004 12:09 AM (GMT)
I like my siggy though! I don't want it smaller, that would be bad. :( Oh well, what am I gonna do? :/

Voltei - October 5, 2004 02:34 AM (GMT)
I think gymnast's siggy is okay.

It's not annoying like 5 animations of DBZ all in the same siggy. :lol:

It is pretty much within size limits, don't worry about it.

Voltei - October 5, 2004 06:43 AM (GMT)
You'll get used to his moose comments.

Just don't take offense to it and you'll be fine. :P

Anyway, to get words on to your pictures, you need to use Microsoft Paint to insert text or better yet, use Photoshop.

Tyson Granger - October 5, 2004 06:46 AM (GMT)
oh but what if i just got the paint thing that comes with the comp when you buy it

Voltei - October 5, 2004 06:47 AM (GMT)
It should work either way. ^_^

Tyson Granger - October 5, 2004 06:49 AM (GMT)
so what if i want to put the pictures together and make a new background like some peoples

Voltei - October 5, 2004 07:04 AM (GMT)
Open up your background, then copy and paste your image onto the background I guess.

Tyson Granger - October 5, 2004 07:29 AM (GMT)
