Just a reminder to everyone that we are cleaning up the forums and getting everything ready for the v2 launch! With the HUGE help from Donna, our new Lead Admin, we are tidying and organizing things big time! So please remember a few things:

1. Flaming and other gross stupidities will result in a warning or ban

2. Forum sigs are to be no larger than 500 pixels wide and 150 pixels high with a maximum file size of 60kb. If you exceed any of the guidelines, your sig will be deleted. Ignoring the warnings will result in a ban.

3. The tutorial forums are meant for posting tutorials, NOT links to tutorials. Anyone who links to another site's tutorials will have their post deleted. Ignoring warnings on this will also... you guessed it... get you banned.

Sorry for taking a hard stance on this, but there's just way too much spamming on the forums and CRAZY sig file sizes. These rules are for the general good, and will make this place a better forum overall for everyone. So just stick to the rules and you'll always be welcomed here.

Thanks for everyone's understanding and cooperation!

Faken

Thanks Faken

P2L is going to slightly change and for the better its going to become one of if not the best Tutorial Forums on the web, personally I already feel it is just a few were abusing the generosity of Faken & Jay.

I'm tired of leaving little messages for members in their sig banners so just removing them from now on, please do NOT message staff as to why it was removed. You know why you never read the Forum Guidelines and they're extremely easy to follow.

All the Forums are being cleaned, dead tuts removed and tuts linking to urls removed. (Video & swf Tuts are an exception)

Warning System has been enabled please do not be afraid of it only you can see your own.

Pixel2Life throws a lot of traffic to our sites so lets help P2L become and stay THE BEST!!!!!!

So, when you say 60kb signature... Do you mean 60kb per image or total size?

Your total sig (all images combined) must be no larger than 60kb.

Forums & Catergories will be moved around and changed sometime today to make it 100% easier on everyone to find things we'll also have a few new things added and maybe some taken so don't be surprised when this happens ;)

The Forum will remain open while this occurs.

Cool, I prefer the new layout better. But I think General Discussion should be moved so it's above Websites 'r' Us.
