Rules of the forum part 1

Post Guidelines
Colours and other text effects are meant to make points, and are not to be used throughout an entire post.
When creating a topic, title it properly. It must be relevant to what the thread contains.

Stretching a Thread
Please do not stretch the boards, either horizontally, or vertically (ie: making a long blank post, posting over-sized pictures, etc.). This makes it very hard to read, and if you do it repeatedly, you will be warned.

Posting Images
Posting of images that contain violent, offensive and/or sexual content/images, is prohibited. Also, when posting an image that is larger then 600px in width or height please link to it instead or wrap it in a spoiler. If the purpose of a thread is displaying images (ie. an art thread, etc.) please post appropriate warnings in the first post that there will be larger images.

Spamming
Spamming (otherwise known as "Stupid Pointless Annoying Messages"), is the act of making posts that contain pointless and usually irrelevant content, or posting the same message or topic over and over again, and is not allowed anywhere. Continuous spamming will result in a warning.

Post In The Correct Forum
When creating a topic be sure to post it in the right section of the forum. Remember, the forum descriptions/titles are there to help you figure out where to post your topic.

Advertising
Links posted to advertise a site, or that have nothing to do with the topic at hand are not allowed. If you wish to advertise your website you may place a link in your profile or signature.

Signature Images
Signatures are pieces of text and/or images that are attached to every post you make. All forum rules apply to signatures. If your signature breaks any of the following rules you will be asked by an admin/mod to change it. If you do not change it your signature will be removed.
Signature restrictions:
-Images are to be no wider then 500px and no taller then 300px.
-There is to be no more then 1 image in your signature unless they are small images. (If you are unsure PM an admin for help.)

Advertising In Your Signature
Signatures are one of the only two places you are allowed to advertise, but if you wish to advertise in your signature there are a couple of rules you must follow. First: Using text that is either coloured or bolded or made to stand out in any way is prohibited. And second: Linking to sites for the purpose of selling is strictly forbidden and will not be tolerated.
