We don't have a lot of rules here. Our street team is a family and everyone here is awesome - we haven't needed rules. But, the thing about signatures is that some people are on dial-up (one of our mods included) and the gifs in the sigs are starting to weigh pages down, making them too heavy to load.
So we have some new guidelines for signatures:
Thanks everyone! Hopefully this will reduce the amount of pressure on other people's connections and make the forum easy for everyone to read.
Of course, make sure you post your gifs in the GIF thread in the pictures forum. We love the gifs (those that can handle them!)
I will give everyone a week to amend their signatures and then after that this will go into effect and mods will amend them for you.

So we have some new guidelines for signatures:
- Signatures should contain one image or gif per person.
- Images should be no bigger than 500x400 pixels (static and gifs)
- Gifs should be used sensibly. It's hard to put a limit on these, but please be considerate to your fellow poster and not use extremely large gifs. They can take ages to load.
