Is it cool now? That quote lost it's funniness after it's been there so long, anyway.

Also, how can one tell when their signature is not in compliance?

If you look at your signature and it's too long, there will be a scrollbar on the right side.

Yours is fine now though. :3

[SIZE="a"]What is the purpose of these sig rules? Do they take up lots of space?[/SIZE]

Yeah, when a signature is really tall like that it takes up a ridiculous amount of space, especially on smaller resolutions. The 350px limit already takes up about half of my screen on an average-sized laptop, and on a smaller computer it's even worse.

I just added a quote to my signature that is rather long. Does it fit the 600px?

The total width of a signature cannot exceed 600 pixels in width. Images stretch the forum for smaller styles, and 600 pixels is the point where some of our smaller width styles and smaller screen resolutions start to break the HTML tables if something is too large in the post content. Text is permitted to exceed this limit.

Yup, since text isn't included in the limit it's fine. :)

Does my signature comply with theese new rules, I only saw the notice up top by the new features untill 28/11/11,

I think it'll be okay but I would hate to crop off all my RPs.

A scrollbox appears so no it's not fine :( You'll need to remove everything below teen heroes for it to be within the limits. :x

On my screen it starts to scroll with the "Birth of Legends" line.

Is it really necessary to list all your roleplays anyway? I would just take them out tbh. xD

is mine to long????????????????????????????????
I think you should be more concerned on the height. The Smeragle image is too tall and causes a scrollbar to appear. As for the width, I think with the userbar it's also too long.

How's it now? I put my former list on my rp page.
I still see a scrollbar. Try getting rid of the extra space at the stop to see if that helps, and maybe rid of some other spacing if it doesn't.

I don't see a scroll bar.

I do as well. It's that last line. But you don't have to remove any text; you have more than one line of empty space so just delete one of those and you'll be within the limits.

your image is fine but the text is below the image on my screen and creates a scrollbar. Try using css alignement instead of pressing enter a bunch to make it exactly aligned. Or in your main css box put an overflow:hidden so if it does go over on accident it doesn't show.
