Sig Rules Clarification

[Skydiver]

you can put stuff behind spoiler tags...the catch is that ALL of your graphics must total less than 50K. It's not 50K per item, 50K is the total sum of file size you can have

is my sig to big?

[jelgate]

I read your sig to be 575x 200 pixels and the forum rules say IRC, say the limits are 700 x 200 pixels

[tombombadil]

excellent......

the size is fine but it's over the KB rule

all sigs but be 50KB or less your's is 65KB

[Skydiver]

what he said, it's about 15K too big file size wise

How do you check KB size? I was told by one of the mods my sig is now fine, but I don't know how to see if the stuff I will put in spoilers is going to make the sig over the KB size.

[jelgate]

Photoshop should tell the pixel and KB size of a pic. You pic is over 200 KB according to my computer

[TrueRomantic]

But some of us don't have photoshop. And I don't see how it could be over 200. Does the stuff I have in spoilers add that much?

out of all your sigs from what i can tell the David Boreanaz yellow one is the only one that is over the KB rule

306 according to what i'm seeing


all the others seem fine but it's up to the mods to make the fin determination

[Skydiver]

there's an easier way

right click the graphic
choose properties
it tells you the pixel size along with the kilobyte size

woudlnt' work for me

i've noticed it people with roating sigs (Unknown (not cached) is the message i see

[Skydiver]

it doesn't work on rotating sigs, yes, however the owners of said graphics can use that procedure to check their own graphics before they upload them

[TrueRomantic]

Ok, I think I've fixed all my sig pics to be small enough. At least, they all say they are small enough when I look at the properties.

But how do I check if my WHOLE sig, including the spoiler stuff, is small enough?

Pixel wise? You can check it by looking at this post which shows you what 700 x 200 pixels looks like.
