Looking across the forum, I've noticed that people are not paying attention to the forum's signature rules. Please read this if you are one of the people I'm talking about (You'll know if it's you if you find your signatures been removed.
* Don't make your signature too big: it can be 200 pixels high and 550 pixels in width. If you like to have text under your sig, then make your sig smaller than 200 pixels high! * A moving avatar is fine, a moving sig is forbidden to use. When you use it, it will be removed. Moving text around your sig is fine as long as you keep it small (no bigger than size 2)
I also did ask Mir about blinkies, and they are allowed as long as they're small and not too annoying for people to look at.
Also, these name tags that people are using underneath their siggies, please make sure that they are small.
and lastly, people are using buttons under their signatures. If you're going to have one, please make sure your signature is smaller than 200 pixels high.
I won't be warning people about their siggies any more, I'll just take them down with no warning whatsoever.
P.S. If you don't now how to check how big a signature is, right click on it and go to properties. A little window will come up and the dimensions of the siggy will be written on it.

If you are requesting signatures from other members please can you:
. Actually use them because people are making sigs and don't seem to be using them.
. Use them for 2 weeks or more because people spend time making them.
. If they are going to be used on another forum please speacify that you are going to do that as it is disrepectful.
. Credit the person who made it, either a thank you by PM or put a little thank you under the signature.

A little explaination about why I don't want big sigs: - They take a long time to load and for some people with slower connections that's annoying - Bigger sigs are usually bigger in kb's as well. By downloading big sigs over and over again, it costs Proboards a lot of bandwidth and if that happens, it'll mean more downtime for the forum.
