Hi all... sorry, I'm not used to this Wiki... is it acceptable to have a small image in one's signature here which links to their userpage, or is that not acceptable on Central Wiki?

I checked the Policies but couldn't find an answer... so please help me out here =) A F K sig 2.jpg A F K When Needed 23:28, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

I can't see why a small image would be a problem, but it shouldn't be any taller than a normal line. Ose TalkContribs 16:10, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
There is no official ruling but there are users consensus or more like etiquettes to follow in this forum, for example this apply also to template signatures but as i told there is no official saying or restriction except for the image user policy where the image could fall --Cizagna (Talk) Dofus » 18:28, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
It may be my curmudgeonly nature, but I hope images and other annoyances will not be encouraged in user signatures. Imagine the arms race: you have a very sweet image that's not a problem. Then someone else will want something with a bit more punch. Soon people will have their family portrait gallery in each signature. It's not terribly relevant here, but the Wikipedia signature policy clearly rules out images. JohnBeckett 00:20, 19 May 2009 (UTC)
I for one don't see a problem if it isn't too big and doesn't force a line break. The "what comes next" argument gets really old. Master_Conjurer 06:50, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
Well, thanx folks, looks like I can add it. If there's any problem just drop me a line here please. =) A F K sig 2.jpg A F K When Needed 14:05, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
The other issue that appears is that Central wikia is not a common wiki so then it comes to consideration what is the purpose or relevance of the image here... --Cizagna (Talk) Dofus » 20:26, 20 May 2009 (UTC) 20:26, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
As long as it's named and categorized appropriately so as to show it isn't a content image. Though, the link= parameter should probably be used in place of an annoying redirect. Master_Conjurer 21:53, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
