I've noticed something with the signature part of the rules.

Depending on the screen width, some originally 5 line signatures get "word-wrapped" and exceed the 5 line rule.

e.g. My signature is 5 lines on 1650 x 1050 (something around there) resolution, but on the N900, which is 800 x 480, it's apparantly 9 lines.

My question is: Does the 5 line rule apply to all screen resolutions, and if not then which screen resolutions should it apply to?

According to the rules:
Singatures may only contain up to five lines of text (measured from a 1280 pixel width screen).

Thanks for pointing that out, Rob1n, for 2 reasons: to answer xomm's question, and to highlight a typo.

I can't edit the page; can someone else fix " Singature"?

I don't see a way for me to edit that page. It should be "singatune" though, right?

Fixed. Sorry, I just lifted everything off the original.

Thanks.

You're really asking for it.
