These are the current signature standards for the SydLexia.com forums:


1. One line of images and videos not exceeding 200 pixels in height and 800 pixels in width, and three lines of default-sized text. This includes line breaks.
2. One line of images and videos not exceeding 200 pixels in height and 800 pixels in width, and one line of default-sized quoted text.
3. Up to seven lines of default-sized text. This includes line breaks. Quoted text counts as two lines.
4. One line of giant-sized text.


The following people in particular are asked to check and adjust their signature sizes:

Usa Satsui
Mr. Bomberman
Eddie Hyde
lordsathien
Ky-Guy

There are almost certainly more of you who are violating the site's signature policy. Please try and keep your signatures within the official limits. Please note that the site staff reserves the right to remove oversized signatures at any time, with or without warning. We prefer to conduct forum business in a more civil manner, so this will not be done if it can at all be helped.

If you don't know how to resize your signature, I recommend downloading IrFanView. It is very free and very easy: http://www.irfanview.com/

Feh, I thought I could get away with it. It was unreadable at the 200 size and I didn't want to put it sideways.

I was gonna change it anyways.

Fixed it. The picture didn't look right at any size smaller than that.

Really? Did you try resampling instead of a straight resize? That usually works better. Sharpening can help too.

Yeah, but i just couldn't get it to where i liked it. Considering the image was a line on a white background though, it kinda just looked like a off-white box when I tried to resize. I had shit to work with though, so I will probably try again later with something better.

I guess I win for getting away with an oversized sig the longest: The Charlie vs. Bison one I had since December 28th. =p

Guess I'll do away with the E&N banner and streamline everything.

I was wondering if KyGuy's video was against the rules, but I didn't want to come off as a snitch.

As per usual, if you have trouble with an image and need help, please ask and ye shall receive assistance. PM me directly if you are afraid to ask direct in the forums.

I'm always up for some fun Photoshop work.

This is what happens when you drown your sorrows with liquor and John Lennon records.

My gif is 17 pixels over the height restriction. Does irfanview resize gifs? I used to have the program on my old computer, but never bothered redownloading it.

The Purple Nurple Jerker has an mage size of 300 pzx when his french fry head levels out with the Nerkle Burken and heads off to Uranus for a vacation in the wintertime.

Thanks, I'm gonna use Option B.

Edit:
Damn, it's still showing the same version, even though I replaced it under the same name in my photobucket account. Must have to clear my cache or something.
