Title: Forum Rules and Guidelines Update - Members Signatures
Post by: danny on December 22, 2010, 06:40:15 AM
Recently we have received some feedback concerning the size of the graphics used in some members' signatures. Large signature graphic files take a toll on the server performance and also slows down the loading of the affected topics for many members with slower line connection. This adversely affects the overall user experience for many members.
Hence we seek your understanding to minimize the size of your signature graphics so that the forum can focus on its overall content ie horology in the Malaysian context.

The section on Member's signatures have been amended as follows with the amendments highlighted in bold and italics.

Hi Kaka,
You'll need to host your image somewhere else like flickr or photobucket. Once you've done that you'll need to insert the following BBcode tag into your signature to get the pic:

Code: [Select]
[img]http://your_image_url/[/img]
Hope that helps.
Remember not to exceed the size limits.
 :Cheers:
