Signature Rules/Restrictions Visibility

[Mikaiah]

I don't know if everyone who wants to put a signature in reads the Signature Guide on this forum. Is there a way to perhaps link to it on the actual signature page itself or include a small line of text saying something like "Signatures should be no larger than 715x250px total, including all text and images."
I don't know if this has been brought up before, so sorry if it's a repeat!

like maybe a small strip of text here

That would definitely prevent more people from having too big of signatures.

Specific FAQ threads like the Signature Guide are likely not someone's first stop - I agree. There is a section linked specifically to signatures here in our Rules and Guidelines though. It is also anchored on the top of the Rules page for easy navigation.

We can add forum and board banners for guided notices but I'm unsure if a 'text guidance field' above where you would add your signature is possible.

ah, I for sure understand if it's technically difficult, I just see it often like on other forums and such.
Having it under rules definitely helps, but I know some people don't like to read, so little reminders help out ^^;;

They have something like this on MAL, but I'm not sure what forum software they use, so I don't know if XenForo supports it:

Extra visual reminders are definitely helpful. I'll bring it up for discussion - thank you for your suggestion!

That would be awesome! I remember trying to track down the rules for signatures early on... since I didn't know much about the site it was a challenge
