I would like to give a heads up to forum members. Right now smilies and the Pokemon emotocons don't count against the signature image count. It was mentioned before by HMTKSteve that if it was being abused that they would be added to the image count. I am not pointing out any one member, there has been alot of signatures with alot of the emotocons in them from time to time. I would like for members to check their signatures and look at the number of smilies or Pokemon emotocons and decide for yourself if it is something that would be a problem. If it gets added into the signature rule, that means I will have to keep an eye on all signatures again and give infractions. I feel the signature infractions are at a low and are seldom broken anymore. I would hate to see new rules added for signatures. This forums give more room for signatures then any other forum I have ever been on. Stratics, Serebii, and Smogon give like 1/4 what this site does.

Not quite. What I will end up doing is turning on the image limit for every post.
The emoticons and such are for occasional use not for writing a novel.

Yes they have always been used to show current farming events, but you have to remember that you have 3 people farming and if you each 2 Pokemon that is a list of 6 emotocons, plus you have them around your link to your farm, the click pins info, and pins by viscosity. That is a ton of images. Also do you realize that you have your pins linked to the same post as the link in your signature? OVERKILL he-he.

It's supposed to link there so that it's easy to get there, and I consider my pins part of my siggy. I feel no harm, and come on, what else am going to link to? I feel pride for my farm :P
Whoops, the catch phrase probably shouldn't link there, but eh.
I also realized I had a lot of pokemon emoticons. I got rid of them. I was having a bit of fun with my siggy, sorry :oops:

I know the pins are part of your sig, but I meant you had emotocons around the text click the pins and a link in the images and in text going to the same place, as well as emotocons around the pins by viscosity. So um yeah alot of emotocons he-he.

No problem. I have seen alot of different members trying new things with the emotocons and boredom leads to most of it. I am very picky about signatures. Steve is a little more laid back as long as your signatures are not to tall he is usually o.k. with it. I don't like huge signatures, I think this stems from my Dial-Up days. I don't know if anyone has noticed, but when I am bored I like to write long winded threads about nothing he-he. Well can't really say nothing that is how my So you want to be a Master Breeder guide got wrote he-he.
Oh an Rroni, you are not the only one with the emotocons and please don't take this as if I was directing this only to you. I just wanted to say something before it got to be a hassle and rules got added or changed to fix it.

I do not much care for large sigs, either. Matter of fact I have Sig view turned off.
