szhosain- the terror watch list crack was a bit of sarcasm based on some of the bogus names and people they've put on it. I'm glad you're not having any difficulty travelling, unlike the Gulf War vet and the commercial airline pilot that have been placed on the list for no official reason and given no recourse outside of suing.

Damn Z, you missed me in San Fran a couple years ago. You could have vouched that I'm not the bible-thumping, right-wing bigot/racist that a few on here think I am

Ah, yes. I missed the sarcasm. I am too literal sometimes ... sorry!

So what ever became of Obama's faked credentials?

Are they still going to let this liar run for President?

Wing. Your sig is in violation of Nico sig rules. 200x600 max. Please comply with the rule. Sig and text must be less than 200x600.

He's fine:

"1) Maximum sig size is 600x235 (including images AND text): Maximum picture size is 600x200 within a sig along with two lines of default-sized text. Text only should be no larger than 235px high. This means that if you're picture is 600X200 pixels and you have a couple lines of text you should be in the clear. However, the text is additional, the picture itself may not exceed 600X200 pixels. "

His image is 254 x 600. I know, I measured it. It exceeds the limit.

If that were the case, he wouldn't have a circle. Save it and open it in PictureManager, click on Edit Pictures, Resize. Original size = 200x200. Photoshop says 200x200 as well.

If his is too big, mine's too big. My pic height is 200 px with 2 lines of text which is within the stated guidelines. Oh wait, you don't like the image. Silly me.

He used the Electoral method of measuring sigs.

Oh NO!

You are starting to feel the effects of Obama's brainwashing!!! Non-existent or minor issues become blown out of proportion, obscuring the real topic at hand

Here is the NICO rule:Maximum picture size is 600x200 within a sig along with two lines of default-sized text.It took a bit of searching to find it. Being a member for so long, it was worth re-reading, to make sure.

It sounds like you are measuring the width of the ascii text, which has no intrinsic length... it flows with the width of the page. The image itself is 200 x 200.

Until Beanor stretched it out with that big picture, it measired 254 pixls, including the text. That using a $26,000 solid modeling program (the one we sell with our hardware) that exports to CNC machines with .001 accuracy.

The image has always been 200 by 200.

I went ahead & made the image smaller to make you happy. Also spiced it up some. Enjoy!

I don't care what you use to measure your images with, try using the industry standard. That would be IE or Firefox.

I'm actually surprised to hear that a program for a CNC machine measures in pixels.

I didn't stretch **** either. I took a screen shot of what was on my screen.

Welcome to the internet.

Well no wonder why replacement parts are always different sizes. I'll take what Photoshop says over what any other program out there says, and it seems to agree with everyone else.

Oh and before I get called out on it, I checked my sig pic, its actually 193 px, not 200.

P.S. You didn't like his sig that much that you had to use a $26,000 program to find something wrong with it?

P.S.S. I love the fiasco that has become this thread LOL, we're so silly and obnoxious.

Here's what I posted immediately after Bob's mistaken post:

Jesus Christ, Bob. Here, do this: Right click on the pic, go to properties and tell me what is says. When I do it I get 200 x 200.

Apparently, it got deleted by someone. Since everyone seems to agree with me, except Bob, I thought I'd repost it.

How about I end this right now. The pic was within the signature limits of NICO. I wrote the rules so I think I know what they stand for. End of story.

Now, back to the topic at hand.....
