Avatars
Avatars can be up to 150x150 pixels in size.
You can either upload them directly to the forum or you can link to a file you have hosted elsewhere if you choose to do so.
It is preferred that you host your image and supply a link, rather than load it to the forum. Storage space is limited.
Please refer to this Proboards help topic for linking to or uploading an image for avatar use: Linking or Uploading an Avatar Image
Signatures
Signatures should be no bigger than 250 pixels wide by 60 pixels high, roughly 1/2 the size of a standard banner advertisement.
Using a text only signature is preferred.
Limited BBCode can be used to customize signature content.
Commercial links such as anti-virus, anti-malware products, computer utility products, etc. are allowed in signatures only when the member has no monetary interest in the product. Links placed solely to advertise products for the benefit of the poster are inappropriate and will be removed.
Links to Windows® or related websites are allowed. Links to forums either personally owned or operated, are not allowed and will be removed, these can be placed in your profile, if desired.
