The "Check Your Signature" Thread
Here, you can have your signature checked. As stated in the rules;

When you receive this infraction, you have one day from the time of your next post to change your signature so it matches the rule; if you do not, you may be infracted again.
(Note: Sigs are also subject to Copyright Violation, Inappropriate Content and Flaming and Baiting rules)
Please do not verify that a user's signature follows or doesn't follow the rules unless you are absolutely sure. If you are unsure, don't post and let a moderator verify the signature instead. Thank you.
Re: The "Check Your Signature" Thread
First post, it seems!
Browsing the "How many infraction points do you have?" thread got me to thinking that I should probably clear my new sig. The image is 213x120 px, so I'm pretty sure I'm in the clear. If not, I can try resizing the text in my sig.
Re: The "Check Your Signature" Thread
Can someone check mine, I think it might exceed the height requirements, but I'm not sure.
Re: The "Check Your Signature" Thread
Could anyone check mine? I just changed it.

This signature is 280x211 if calculated from the first pixel after the signature division line, which is 51 pixels too tall. If from the first visible pixel, it's 280x198, which is still 38 pixels too tall. Removing the banner or the FC area will fix the signature.

624x228 from the first pixel after the division line - 49 pixels too wide and 68 pixels too tall. If calculated from the first visible pixel, it's still 55 pixels too tall. The banner will need resizing to get it to fit.

No, not yet. It's still a bit too tall (175 pixels high) when calculated from the division line. (If calculated from the first visible pixel, it's 162 pixels high, but it also exceeds the limits a bit.)
Hmm... I wonder whether sacrificing the banner height will suffice? Cut another 15 pixels in height, and it'll be OK. Or you could try removing the FC part. Or you could make use of the unused horizontal space and just redo your image banner with the FC info inside the image itself, keeping in mind of the 575x160 size limitations.
Re: The "Check Your Signature" Thread
Always measure from the topmost visible pixel to the bottom. Wouldn't be fair of us to fault people for the space vB forcibly inserts, so we don't.
Ghetsis, 162's close enough. No mod will infract you over two extra pixels.
Re: The "Check Your Signature" Thread
How is my new one?
Because it's not a banner and there's words at the bottom does it have less or more space than a single banner?
Re: The "Check Your Signature" Thread
Text still counts, remove the extra lines between the links and you could fit those two links on one line like this:
Join my Fanclub-Visit Bulbagardens Gaga thread
then you are okay
Re: The "Check Your Signature" Thread
I've changed that but the space between the two pictures and first line and the first line between the second does not go for some reason?

Try editing your signature in Standard mode. The Enhanced mode is known for mangling up BBCode. Remove extra line breaks in that mode, and save immediately.
Re: The "Check Your Signature" Thread
Oh thanks
I checked before on that normal version and since it was on a new line with no space I assumed it was ok but then I just joined it up to notice that got rid of the space.
Thank you a lot and I'm sure I'll be allowed to add another link for my upcoming fic with the two links as long as it's in the same format as the other two are.

The signature total size is 537x121, which is within the size limits. The image is also way below the 500 KB limit. You're good.
