Obsolete: The OLD "Check your Signature" thread (previously NEW)

[Snowy]

I just made a signature, and I went to the signature section in my profile. But apparently, I can't upload it from my computer?

You can't attach images to a sig the way you can a post, unfortunately. SpinyShell's advice is good, and I would recommend imgur too.

Before you post you should take a quick look at the rules:

• Spoiler tags ... are not allowed.

So what is the reason for this?

They require staff to open the spoiler tag so that we can check the contents.

Why isn't there a box tag for non-spoilers?

I'm not sure I understand what you mean.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean.

A box that opens like a spoiler tag one, but, it isn't about a spoiler.

Boxes that open aren't allowed in signatures. If you mean on the forum itself, you can use spoiler tags for non-spoiler reasons. Just not in your signature.

I think what @Snowy is getting at is that a user could hide inappropriate content in their signature in a spoiler tag. They could have the mods check the signature, get approval, and then change the content to something inappropriate in the tag afterwards. I think this would happen irregardless if the content was hidden in a non-spoiler box tag.

That would make sense...

You're a bit over 180 pixels in height at the moment.

How is mine?

It's showing to me as 175px tall. Our rules are 160px.

I put it down to 130px.

I put it down to 130px.

Perfect.

How does my sig look?

How does my sig look?

you're fine =) Right at 160 pixels tall for me, which is within the limits (filesize is fine as well), but you won't be able to add anything else to make it taller

Guys, I've got a problem. The picture for my signature isn't accepted whenever I try to upload it. It's already got the correct size and a publicly accessible link on Google Drive.
Is it possible to directly upload the picture to Bulbagarden?
