Heads up on sigs and other things..

Redesign is going well, in preparation for a fresh look, we are making sure we come up with some fresh rules for the site, and part of that is sigs.

Our wish is that sigs be work safe, and of a respectable nature and size. This means

- no immense animated images (limit of 100k on animations) ..
- no large images (please keep them to under 500x350 total size.)
- no advertising other forums in your sig.
- you can do links to a business site if you have a TR Shop / are a vendor (or work for one who has that set up)
- no banners advertising businesses
- no offensive sigs, be that non work safe, gore, racial or anything else that could be found offensive. (it means if you gotta ask for clarification on whether its work safe or in bad taste, generally you know the answer already)

The idea here is that we are a car site, one open to the public and one open to anyone, as such we need to make sure the impression we give is one of maturity and openness.

You may find that mods PM you letting you know your breaking these rules and ask you to correct it. Don't get mad at them, if you want to complain, PM me. If you find these rules are something you just absolutely cannot live with, PM me and we can discuss it, but we feel its in the best interest for TR as a whole.

Our focus on the redesign, and on the changes we make is of the greater good for the site, its members and the thousands of people who read it every day. Of late the general maturity level and standards have been slipping and we want to correct this before it gets out of hand.

Thanks.
