Have check image re-sizer settings,they look to be ok.

Haven't heard from anyone that a different image re-sizer has been installed

Maybe James has broken it again :D

Blackheart is the only one i've seen so far without it on. Its on mine too even though it hasn't changed the size of it at all :rofl

Suppose its one way of keeping folks sigs down lol.

mines hosted on a personal server so nothing to do with photobucket .. must be board related ;)

someone has set the limit sizes without knowing what the general sizes are.

my guestimation is its now 400px with by 100px high which stops the bar at the top, which is wrong for things like gamercards etc.

potukxystus
15th November 2009, 09:47 PM
^^^ its 600 x 126 which is enough for the std gamer cards such as the one james is using.
some members on the forum have had images in their sigs which were are large as 600 x 525
really no need for such large sigs.

examples of resized images on this post alone

450px × 150px (scaled to 376px × 125px)
348px × 126px (scaled to 345px × 125px)
450px × 150px (scaled to 376px × 125px)
556px × 203px (scaled to 342px × 125px)
510px × 135px (scaled to 425px × 112px)

any image that is 600 x 126 remains unaffected regardless of file size. although due to server costs, smaller files would be better ie under 100kb

Mark what about folks with playfire sigs like me... I cannot adjust the height of it as far as i am aware as its set by their servers? for the sake of 1 pixel im stuck with a box above it making it even bigger :(

Not trying to cause a ruckus but a thread with a bit of notice wouldn't have gone amiss ;)

Ummm guidelines were set at 500x150 :p


edit: so being bitchy back why is this one:
521px × 151px (scaled to 434px × 126px) :p

edit: "guideline" being the operative word. At 500px the lettering wasn't sharp so i extended a little...

edit: thus neglecting the 'guideline' lol

15th November 2009, 10:45 PM
600 x 125 is the absolute maximum a sig should be anyways. i know the ps3 gamercards are quite long but not high.

its ok to limit the sizes cos it does help with page loading times (except with Sarge's art gallery on his :rofl)

Kaitlyn1982
15th November 2009, 11:02 PM
Im not on about the guidelines Wayne i know what they are and checked before i got playfire put on :P Im on about the size limiter ;)

ReVoRolla
15th November 2009, 11:03 PM
a sig shouldnt be more than 120px in height anyways, Playfire should know that.

Kaitlyn1982
15th November 2009, 11:10 PM
Well if its written in stone somewhere on the world wide web i've never found it. Would you like to contact playfire and let them know?

ReVoRolla
15th November 2009, 11:16 PM
well, its a unwritten rule cos banner placements are use in websites and the rectangle shaped banner common used is no bigger than 600px by 120px, so what most ppl go off, like eu ps3 for example.

but its playfire ... its poo .... what do you expect? :rofl

No worries Wayne i misread it ;)

Revorolla you choose to have the sig on you want and no one shows any disrespect towards you or your choices so what gives you the right to rubbish my choices? Keep your holier than thou opinion to yourself in future thank you.

i wasnt disrespecting you at all, i was just saying its playfire's fault for the dimensions they used when they set up they generators.

when did i even say that your sig was rubbish??? but please dont tell me to what to say and what not to say in future, thank you.

clam down everyone please. :)

the initial 'guideline were set at 500 x 150
too many people are displaying pictures way over this size. on a post that contains a few words, in some cases its taking up a quarter of a page.. not much fun to read through.

forward images to me if you want and i'll resize them and email them back. am off for the next two days so plenty of time on my hands

You might want to rephrase what you originally said then as it was taken differently from what you meant it. I have a great deal of admiration for the graphics you produce and haven't had a bad word to say about you before now :(

oh grow up. what i said was "a banner shouldn't be more than 120px high and playfire should know that" only you took it as an insult about you when the whole subject was all about sig dimensions.

15th November 2009, 11:39 PM
enough please. no need for modern warfare 3 :rofl
have amended the sizes to sort kait playfire sig

15th November 2009, 11:42 PM
To be honest i was asking Mark or an admin who had the information i wanted. I didn't ask for what the rest of the internet has or does.

Thanks Mark that was all i wanted to know! :gr8

what a totally pointless argument :( just read back and Gav's comments weren't directed at Kait :( he said playfire sigs we're too high :unsure he only commented cos he knows about sigs. His tone obviously left him open to having it read it many ways. = fail. Irrelevant now cos he's left lmzf :huh

posting that as a member, not admin, and no i'm not having a go at Kait, just dismayed at the way things turn out all the time :(

so are we at 600 x 127 now??

My sig was at the old guidelines of 500 x 150 now that's reduced to 127 pixels high with a 23 high pixel "click this bar to view the full image" so the display hight is unchanged :)

....meanwhile back on topic......

I removed the sigs fom my view ages ago as they are just too big and take up too much space on the screen. :(

16th November 2009, 12:07 PM
Nothing to add just seeing if my sig is still the same



EDIT - Yay!!
