What's the deal with the signatures?

[UndergradSteve]

I'm fairly new here but one thing I have seen a lot of is signatures with like gif ads for games or girls from games
What are these mostly for and is there a reason why some of them have F95zone on the bottom?
Can I promote my own games on these?

Thanks

I guess people like to show what games they like/support.
Though personally I just disabled all signatures. This makes the forum easier to read, less cluttered.

For promotion of your game. I'm not sure. Maybe there are some rules about the content inside your signature.
But as long as it something similar as what most people do here, I don't see a reason why not.

There's a section on signatures in the general forum rules, link at the bottom of the page. They might have F95 on them because it's how Krull made them and it just caught on, along with people using their templates.

Developers often have their games as signatures, and linking it to something like a patreon is allowed.

There's a bunch of Signatures here:

I did a quick guide to setting up your sig here:

Like a lot of devs I enjoy making them; it's something to refresh creatively with.

Any image can be a sig; just steal one you like by copying the Image Address


Then go to your profile:


Once there, it's just like editing a post. Click on Insert image, and paste in the URL you copied


Press SAVE. All your posts now append the sigs at the bottom.

Easiest place to find Sigs you like is probably in the thread for games you like; fans will already have made/found SIGs you can use.

That was helpful. Thank you! How can I find signatures from a special game?

Most games have a link to their signatures on their thread(s). If you can't find it then check out the signature thread that was posted above.
