Well Met Everyone,

. . . . . Please have a look at our Signature Regulations (also quoted below). Keep in mind, the 500x250 size restriction encompasses ALL the contents of a Signature combined, not just one element there-in. I am only quoting the Rule 4.04, but please do keep all of Section IV in mind also.

. . . . . We are generally very lenient in signatures and usually only send requests/warnings for changes when we are either notified of a violation or it is just so blatantly over the restriction, we are obligated to. However, I'm going to start sending out more requests for signature fixes starting next week, so please do us both a favor and double check your signatures and get them in line please. If you are sent a request/warning for a Signature Violation, you will have 3 days to comply from the time the warning was sent, after which PWE Themselves will remove your signature for you - and in extreme cases, an infraction may be placed on one's account.

. . . . . To help people who may not know how to tell if their signature is within our restrictions, I'll leave this open for those who wish to post and ask if their current signature is okay. Keep in mind, as signatures are dynamically updated an "okay" here doesn't mean it is an okay for the future and won't be a permissible defense for any Signature Warnings issued in the future.

Thank you for your cooperation,
The Moderator Team

Section IV - Avatars, Signatures, and Images
. . . . Images, Avatars, and Signatures are an important part of expression and identity for many players on Gaming Forums. In order to both provide allowance for this yet remain vigilant in keeping the forums tidy and safe for viewers of all walks of life and ages, we have several Restrictions upon the use of such on our forums. They are as follows.

Rule 4.04 - Signature Size Restrictions
. . . . The following are our Guidelines and Restrictions on Signatures and Avatars. Please keep in mind that the dimensions span the entire Signature Contents, not just an image contained there-in.
Signature Image Restrictions
  • Images and Text used in Signatures must be no more than a combined 500 pixels in width and 250 pixels in height and may not be more than 200kb in total file size.
  • You may not use animated images in any format.
  • You may use transparency in images and they may be of .jpg, .jpeg, .gif, .bmp, or .png formats - just watch their file size!
Avatar Image Restrictions
  • Avatar images must be no more than 82 pixels in height and width and may not be more than 9.5kb in file size.
  • You may not use animated images in any format.
  • You may use transparency in images and they may be of .jpg, .jpeg, .gif, .bmp, or .png formats - just watch their file size!
Text Restrictions
  • You are limited to 500 characters of text in your signature, which includes VB Coding.
Uploading/Hot-Linking
  • You may feel free to utilize the upload feature for your signatures and avatars.
  • If possible, please use an image host, such as Photobucket or Imageshack, however as this will help us keep bandwith usage down.
  • Please do not hotlink to any images you do not have permission to hotlink to.

    . . . . Also, if you need help in re-sizing a signature, we have an awesome thread in which you can request help from the Community or even ask if someone can make a graphic/avatar signature for you. Some have even already created some awesome basic avatars and sigs for anyone to use!

    That would have best been asked in the Signature and Avatar Thread Zebular linked. ;)


    Your "Profile Page" is part of PWE's Core Connect. It is not a part of the Neverwinter Forums.


    In order to access the Neverwinter Forum's options and controls you must click User CP at the top. If you have any further questions you can either post within the Signature and Avatar Thread or PM a Community Moderator and they'll be happy to help you more. :)



    Thread Closed to prevent it from becoming a random discussion. It'll be resurrected when the mods feel it's pertinent to the community.
