Just a few rules for new people coming into the forum.

Basically, I want to improve the quality of the posts, so no spam or advertisements.

1. Spam
Spam is not permitted on the LunaPic Forum. Spam posts will be deleted, and spam topics will be closed (meaning all replies will be prevented). Below is a definition of spam.

Spam, which stands for stupid, pointless, annoying messages, is any post that does not provide anything to the board, or the topic and any replies to the topic.

Examples of spam include:
1a. Signature tests
Signature tests do not provide anything to the board. Thus, you are not permitted to make a topic which only has the purpose of viewing your signature. There are 2 good ways to test your signature: Making a decent post and sending a Private Message to yourself.

1b. Advertisements
Absolutely no commercial advertisments or links are allowed. It must be remembered that the forum is not here for getting your site publicity. Do not make a topic about your site, and attempt to advertise it. The way to advertise your personal site is to put a link in your signature and post around with your signature. However, if you are just here to advertise your site, you'll probably be banned.

1c. Wrong-board posts
This probably happens the most out of all things. If you get your topic in the wrong area we will move it. Please make sure you get it in the right topic though. It helps us out alot.

1d. Post Mistakes
If you make a mistake on your post, don't just post again. Use the edit icon right above the post. Make your edits and go on.

2. Signature and Avatar Length
You are not permitted to have a signature longer than 700 characters. If you sig is longer then that don't try to save it for your sig because it won't let you.
Avatars must be no more than 175 pixels wide.
All signatures MUST be 550 x 200 pixels or LESS (Width x Height)

Please keep signature images small and please do not have a large amount of text. If a Moderator deems your signature to long or big please comply and shorten it. Please do not post full song lyrics in your sig.

3. Posting ettiquette
Please do not type in all capitals. And try to punctuate correctly. Poor spelling/grammar/punctuation makes your posts hard to read, as well as open to misinterpretation.

4. Language
PLEASE watch your language!!! If the mods think anything is unproper or insulting you say we WILL edit or delete your post.

Additionally, our ISP requires these rules:

It says at the upload area that avatars have to be under 6kb, but takes them anyway. lol

Seriously slows the page downloads...

Just a suggestion, but it could be shut off.

Cut and paste works fine for text.

(Some of us are still on dialups at home.)
