As some of you are aware we increased the sites security this weekend and added a SSL layer (SHA2) Encryption to protect your data while using digitalworldz!

This affects the images and sizes because we used to allow you to have a link to a image for your signature.

We had to remove this feature because external links would break the padlock SSL unfortunately.

HOWEVER

We have had a complete overhaul of the dinosaur signature, profile, avatars rules we had in place and we are trying to move with the times...

Everyone can now have a signature and the limits and sizes are universal to keep the layout looking tidy, and a massive increase in size of the pictures / images you are allowed (they used to be 20k for everything :eek:).

Here are the Limits and Sizes:

Signature Images: (click here to edit yours now)
Signature images / pictures are found below your posts.
*You are now allowed to have a width of 500px wide and 300px high, with a maximum file size of 300k

Avatars: (click here to edit yours now)
Avatars are the images / pictures you find on the left of your posts (mine is a drunk darth vader at the moment :)).
*You are now allowed to have a width of 160px wide and 200px high, with a maximum file size of 300k

Profile Pictures: (click here to edit yours now)
Profile Pictures are the pictures you want people to see when they visit your personal profile page
*You are now allowed to have a width of 300px wide and 300px high, with a maximum file size of massive 3MB (profile pages are personal so we have allowed for this).

Of course we can negotiate these sizes if members want something different, the only one that is set is the avatars that is specific because a bigger (dimension) avatar breaks the post pages so this has to stay at the current size!

We also have a fantastic thread where you can get our fantastic members to make you personal avatars, signatures, profile pictures.

Thank you for reading hope this makes sense to you all.
