Everything you need to know about the Signature space

First, you must be an upgraded member of the forum before you are allowed to have a Signature. If you want to upgrade your account, your options to upgrade will be shown on your Account Upgrades page.

Your Signature appears on the 'About' tab of your profile, and directly underneath the first post you contribute to any thread. Note: Signatures will only appear once per user, per thread, and won't appear on screens less than 481px wide.

Section 5 of our Terms and Rules sets out the rules for Signatures. Please also read our related Newbie Guide thread: Everything You Need To Know About The Signature Space Rules | BlackHatWorld - you'll also find out how to create your signature here. 

You may post 2-3 lines of text or 1 banner, 728x90 pixels max. Do not use a font size larger than 13, crazy fonts/colors, sound clips, excessive smileys, or anything else that might be considered annoying, e.g,. flashing images.

How often can I change my Signature?

There are no restrictions on how often you can change your signature. Once you are eligible to have one, you can change it as often as you like, ensuring that it complies with our Terms and Rules.

Why has my Signature been removed?

If a moderator has changed your signature, it's likely that it doesn't comply with Section 5 of our Terms and Rules somehow. Check the rules, and if you're still unsure, please submit a Support ticket for further guidance.

If your signature does not comply with the rules, you may receive a warning. As with all warnings, if you repeatedly ignore the rules and any warnings you receive, this may result in a permanent ban from the forum.

Can I have links in my Signature?

You can include:

-    up to 3 text links OR 1 banner (not both)

-    No Calls to Action (CTA's), such as 'Message me, Buy now, Shop now, or similar promotional phrases.
