n_odie Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 (edited) We've recently seen an increase in reports of people visiting our forums and getting malware warnings from browsers like Firefox and Google Chrome. These warnings are caused by signatures and images hosted externally on sites which these browsers consider potentially harmful. First of all, we'd like to stress that visiting a page containing images hosted on these sites does not put you at any extra risk. If you get such a warning, please use the report function so that we can remove the signature or avatar in question. Please note that this will not count as an official warning. We simply remove these signatures and avatars because of the inconvenience they cause to users. While we have no official rule about what sites can and can't be used to host your images, we strongly suggest using a dedicated image hosting site such as Imageshack or Photobucket. By using sites like these, you can prevent your signature and avatar from triggering malware warnings like the ones we have been getting. Thanks!Tip.It Staff PS:Or you can upload them here too! http://forum.tip.it/gallery/ :) Edited September 2, 2010 by n_odie Editted In PS: Section RIP MichaelangelopolousThanks to cowboy14 for the pimp sig!

Den Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 I probably should make a photobucket account then. Though I dont think tinypic has ever caused any problems. ........::::: Rainy's YouTube Channel - Rainy's Twitter - Rainy's Facebook - Rainy's DeviantArt - Rainy's Tumblr - Rainy's Tip.It Profile :::::.........

Bows Posted September 2, 2010 Share Posted September 2, 2010 I probably should make a photobucket account then. Though I dont think tinypic has ever caused any problems. Imageshack is loads better for quick uploads. I just save every picture I upload into a folder on my desktop for quick access. Then I categorize the folders, for even easier access should I need to upload again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll test and see if its still as slow as before.If it is, I'm moving over to photo bucket. :P ........::::: Rainy's YouTube Channel - Rainy's Twitter - Rainy's Facebook - Rainy's DeviantArt - Rainy's Tumblr - Rainy's Tip.It Profile :::::.........

Wizz Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 What about people with a Dynamic Sig or Avvy? Wongton is better than me in anyway~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandorf61 Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 What about people with a Dynamic Sig or Avvy? Generally sites that host dynamic signatures are usually fairly reliable. Of course you can always use Tip.it's Dynamic Signatures if your looking for a Runescape stat sig. Pyramid Plunder Guide Tip.it Forum Rules Adventurer's LogThanks to Cowboy14 for the awesome sig!
