- Your signature may include links to your talk page, contributions, or other applicable pages.
- A small image may be used, limited to 20 pixels in height. The image should be approximately square and must not interfere with line spacing or collide with either of the lines above and below it. Preferably a signature would include no more than one image. If you add your own image, it counts as one of your personal images. Images that are distracting are not allowed. Likewise, animated images are strongly discouraged.
- Your signature can be a different color or colors, provided they are readable. A background other than white is strongly discouraged, and any such background must be confined to the immediate text area. Borders or blinking (or anything else that gives undue salience to a signature) are not allowed.
