3 Why

·Why doesn't my signature show up?
·Why can't I get an image to show up in my signature!?
·Why is my signature replaced with (sig was too long)?
·Why don't posting tag or signature changes appear right away?
·Why doesn't all my info show up?
·Why do I have to do so much reading?
·Why does my poll show up blank?
·Why did the graphic in my post show up small?
First, make sure you selected "show signature." Also your post must be longer than your sig. For instance if your sig is "www.dslreports.com" your post would need to be at least 19 characters long.

HTML tags for images are disabled for signatures.

If your signature is more than 255 characters long, including HTML codes, then your signature will be replaced with (sig was too long).

Just find a post before you changed it and restore it.

Server caches may cause your changes to be slightly delayed. Wait a few minutes and post another test.

If you are using a posting tag, you need a certain amount of characters for the info under your username to show up. Date joined, etc.

All the info will show up with any amount of characters, even one, if you don't use a posting tag.

It is your responsibility to find the answers to your questions. No one can just give them to you because they don't know what needs fixing. When you have searched for the answer you're looking for in the site FAQs and the various forums and still need help then it's time to ask your question.

One reason that your poll didn't work may be that you did not enter a poll question. Another possibility is that you did not qualify to make a poll.

See FAQ 1140 for more information about this and the correct way to construct a poll.

The preferred dimension of an uploaded/linked graphic is 640 pixels or less in width.

Using the Got Attachments Feature
Any graphic wider than 700 pixels uploaded via the "got attachments" feature will be auto-thumbnailed down to 200 pixels. Anything between 1 and 700 pixels wide is shown as is, unless the image file is very big in which case it is thumbnailed, and then is displayed using 1 to 3 column-spanning cells and as many rows as necessary for all attachments.

At this time, all .png graphics uploaded are reduced to 200 pixels.

The image below was uploaded as a 1600 pixel-wide .jpg file. The system auto-thumbnailed it to a smaller image clickable to see the original large version.



Using Image Tags for Linking Off-Site
Any graphic wider than 700 pixels linked off-site using [img] tags will not be resized, and will blow out the right margin of the posting window. The extended margin will affect the entire posting page, and can render the thread difficult for you and others to read. If this occurs, mods will edit the graphic to include a "width" statement, changing the graphic size.
Please be considerate of others when posting images.

If you must use "inline" images from another site, you can also bury width, or width and height attributes in the image html, to stop margin blowout. If you see a wide external image, "hey-mod" it, so a mod can edit in a width attribute.
