Graphics in Signature Guidelines

[Mindi]

With an increased usage of graphics in signatures, these guidelines have been established. Starting November 1st, 2006, you will be asked to change your signature graphics if they do not comply with the below guidelines. If they are not changed, they will be removed from your signature.

Graphics in Signatures Guidelines

1. No copyrighted material- No copyrighted photos or logos from other sites without the owner�s permission.
2. No hotlinking- Either host the image on your own website or on a free service, don�t steal someone else�s bandwidth.
3. File size limits: Combined size limit for all signature graphics can be no more than 35k
4. Dimension limits:
a. Combined maximum width of all graphics in signature is to be no more than 600pixels
b. Combined maximum height of all graphics in signature is to be no more than 125 pixels

If you are unsure if your signature graphics comply with the above guidelines, right click on the graphics in your signature and add together the dimensions and file sizes to get the total. If they are over the maximum width, height or file size then you need to remove or change your signature graphics until you comply with the above guidelines.

Signatures that do not comply with the above guidelines will be altered to remove the graphics.

Anyone who needs help altering their graphics to comply with the above guidelines, feel free to PM me.

Thanks,
Mindi
