It has become necessary for us to change Rule 7 to reflect in particular what is allowed in signatures as it applies to links.
We have seen a shift to members adding lines in their signature that amount to advertising, and adding extra website links related to their business, so we must now limit what is allowed for vendors to website or company name as a link only.
As Facebook links can be placed in individual profiles, they will no longer be allowed in signatures. Because Photobucket links have been used for advertising as well, we will no longer be allowing the posting of photobucket/picture links in signatures.
Posting links to Non-business Sugar Glider Organizations like SGH, S.U.G.A.R, TGI, etc. will still be allowed.
In a few days the rules will change and everyone will need to agree as we do each time there is a rule change. GC staff will begin editing signatures for our members on August 20th, to give everyone a little time to edit themselves.Revised Rule 7:7. Avatars, Images, Videos, links, and Smilies. All Avatars, Images, Videos, links, and Smilies must comply with Rule 4. Avatars: must be in good taste and not violent or sexual in nature. Signatures: The signature limit is set to 300 characters max. Only board icons are allowed in your signature. Please limit your gremlins/smilies to 6 in your signature. Website or Company name as a link ONLY. NO product types/specialty mentions in signature. NO Facebook or Photobucket links are allowed in signatures (they can be placed in profiles).Images: Are allowed, sparingly, when it adds to the post's understanding. Gremlins/Smilies: Only board smilies are allowed. Videos: Videos can now be posted here even if they are not glider related. Non glider related videos must be posted in Community Hall and all videos must be embedded, not posted as links. All videos must be in good taste and not violent or sexual in nature. We will not allow any millbreeder or brokers videos to be linked or embedded. links: to news sites as well as other sites such as blogs are permitted as long as the page being linked to complies with Rule 4. links to personals (dating sites) and other sites that do not comply with Rule 4 will not be allowed. **** We cannot possibly cover every website individually so any website which leads to non PG-rated material will be removed ****

I guess it's a good thing I took my Facebook link out of my signature a couple weeks ago.

OK, I am pretty sure my siggy is OK just the way it is.
However, something that I have always had trouble with is my Facebook account in my profile. When I go to "edit profile" to add it, it is in there. But when I view my profile, the Facebook space is blank.
I have mentioned this to Eddie before. I am not sure if it is just me or the entire forum? It's fixed! Thanks, Eddie!
