Default why did I get banned?!?!?

I made up this account to ask this:
This is streetassasin I want to know why I got banned when my sig pic was small enough. The limit is 500x150 and my pic was 375x120. I dont know what is going on but I did what I was told. Its mot like I was a troll ******* up the site I have seen sigs bigger than mine

__________________________________________________ _______________ whould tha administrator that banned me please email me at streetassasin@hotmail.com to please tell me what I did wrong exactly

It appears that there was a 3rd strike for having too big of a sig image. You got a week off. Normally we would ban people permanently for re-registering another account, so please do not do that again.

I've seen your posts, and remember seeing your sig and sig picture.

Your sig picture was 500 x 160. Even though it "said" that it was 375x120, when I did a right-click / Properties, the image pixel size was 500x160. I would assume that's why. You sure you linked the right picture?

That's done here so that this site doesn't turn in to the sig-pic fest like other automotive web sites (where the sig pics are larger than 90% of the posts).

Yep, click on User Control Panel at the top, then click on Edit Options on the left, then scroll down (ironically) to Thread Display Options,

then

Done deal. Further discussion (read: complaing) is meaningless at this point.
