Yup, limit for these boards is 400x75 and 22KB for all signature images total, and 90x90 and 22KB for avatar images. Along with a *reasonable* amount of text. There are quite a few good-looking ones I've seen already (in use as sigs, posted in-thread to show works of art don't fall under av/sig rules unless they're a manual sig) that will be getting nuked sooner than later, in this thread alone.

Nice to see you've not long been back Talesin and you're already stirring up the hive.
To those forum members who haven't stupidly obliterated limits, there is a forum thread in the website feedback forum to support some rule changing on the limits. Give your thoughts to UWE and the community, I'm all for the rule changes as long as it's not making them silly dimensions or 1MB images, but there is a compromise as 22KB was made fit for an era in which a larger proportion of members were not on higher speed connections.
Only a couple of those I've looked through convey the game well to people who don't know about it. Most of them are still awesome and all could certainly be used on this forum because everyone already knows how awesome it is, etc, but to drag new people in you should try to find something a bit more representative of the game rather than just cool.

Alright. No Onos it is!<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd--> You do know that there wont be female marines in ns2 right? I think you could use the marines from background images but not the female model upfront like that.

Actually, there will be female marines. That female he used is old official concept art of the female marine...

actually, I was partially right- it may not make it:
"We're also not sure if the female marine will make it into the first version of NS2 but we hope so!" <a href="http://forum.readyroom.com.br/index.php?showtopic=5254" target="_blank">http://forum.readyroom.com.br/index.php?showtopic=5254</a>

No, with "first version" they mean when the game is released to the public and that the female could be included later on, on a patch/upgrade or something like that. They want her in the game for the first release, but if they can't make it, she will be included sooner or later.
has anyone converted any of these to sprays for NS1, so many visitors to my server have no idea NS2 is in development or available to pre-order at that. A spray that maybe shows the URL would be sweet!

Either Way, I don't see shoot.
no they aren't, they just have to be under what 100 kb ? 400 x 25?

Just seen a nuked Sig stating that.
Welcome Back, kid. Long time, no see.

Also, dude, I just realized you're in Davis too. =]
