The avatar you sized for BRgetthenet is too large. The dimensions for avi's can be no larger than 150x150 and 30 kBytes. The one you sized is 225x150 which will get whacked if he tries to use it. This particular photo has to be sized at 150x100 for it to be in proportion to the original while remaining within the approved dimensions per the guidelines. I've re-sized it to the appropriate dimensions.

Also, the sig pic you made for RaginCajunsULL is awesome, but it's too large as well. The dimensions are correct, but it's 59.3kB. Sig images also have to be 30kB or less per the rules. I've optimized it for you getting it to 26.9kB.

I'm not picking on you, but avatars and sig pics have been getting whacked a lot lately for being too large. Some I've made for people have been removed because they had too many kB, so I've had to go back & optimize them. I've begun checking them now when I make them to be sure they're not too large & optimize them if necessary. The site I use to do that is Online Image Optimizer (tools.dynamicdrive.com) which gives several image size options and can also be used with an iPad or other tablets. It's really easy to use, as well. Just giving you a heads up for future pics.

I should of clarified, but its not for a sig, its just a header for my Off-season thread on Saints Talk.

Don't take this the wrong way but I know the guidlines for images here. I've made hundreds of sigs for people here and I size mine accordingly before uploading to the web. I use photoshop and use the save for web optimization tab that lets you adjust the image size (kb) before saving, so I dont know what you're seeing. I upload all my sigs at 29kb so if there is something that adds size to an image when uploading, then maybe you know something I dont. Otherwise the sig was fine. I still have sigs floating around here from years ago that I made using the same format and none have been whacked. Now, the avi is wrong. I uploaded the wrong image and didnt resave the size accordingly, but I assure you it was under 30 as well. But thanks for the little tutorial. Be safe out there kid.

You need to clarify better dickhead. You want me to redo it bigger just like the raiders one? I'll take care of it this afternoon if the smaller sig version wont suffice.
