What is the signature for? [edit your profile]
You may use a signature (commonly used in email messages) in your posts. You can specify in your profile a signature to use at the bottom of your posts. When you post, there is an option to use your signature. A signature may contain one or more images but they must fit within a box with maximum dimensions of 400 x 75 pixels (width x height) and with a maximum (combined) file size of 20k. Images containing mostly very large words or animated .gifs will not be permitted

IT DOES NOT CONTAIN MOSTLY VERY LARGE WORDS

20242 > 20000?

It wasn't a very good Sig anyway so don't worry.

dont be anal in Kb its under by 0.3! how many bytes are in a Kb 1024? acording to google 20k in bytes is 20480 so im still under

Fenris · 24 Sep 2010 at 13:23

File size was too high probably.

krooton · 24 Sep 2010 at 13:23

The rules state kb, not bytes, so I would have thought it was fine.

waah wah

Best bet might be to email an admin?

yhack · 24 Sep 2010 at 13:24

We're all on 56k and can't handle your huge filesize!

1024 bytes in a 1k , 20k = 20480 im fine my sig apears legal to me

admin wont know one of the mods might, im honestly curious as to why my sig was removed when i made this sig months ago i was very anal about it meeting the board requirements because the sig i had before it slightly broke the forum rules

KNiVES · 24 Sep 2010 at 13:25

I'm with Arknor, that seems perfectly fine :confused:

Greenlizard0 · 24 Sep 2010 at 13:26

To be fair he's got a point. The rules aren't that clear, it just says 20k (?). Does that mean 20,000 bytes or 20.0kB?

Wicksta · 24 Sep 2010 at 13:26

Obviously someone didn't realise how many bytes are in a kilobyte.

Maccapacca · 24 Sep 2010 at 13:26

Does someone sit here viewing the properties of every sig?

Cosimo · 24 Sep 2010 at 13:27

It shows as:

Size 19.7K
Size on disk 20K

20K=20480

There is nothing wrong with it.

The Signature Is Legal.

I remember Zefan used to do it years ago, then he was 'promoted' within the forums. I don't know how it didn't alter his sense of smell.

i can only assume someone reported one of my posts to a moderator claiming my sig breakes the forum rules but im pretty convinced it doesnt break any rules
1024 bytes in a Kb im clearly under 20k.

can i put my sig back or what :S

Doughnut007 · 24 Sep 2010 at 13:28

Its was not me

try asking the mods

Sp00n · 24 Sep 2010 at 13:28

It's about time the file size limit was "removed" or at least increased, imo.

Aye, probably.

Mods are obviously bored and needed something to do.
