Description
EDIT4: okay I've been away for a few years and some things may have changed but, some additional information:EDIT2: Now featuring how to add community emotes to your comment signature
Special thanks to Krissi001 for sharing the secret
That text for anyone too lazy to type is
EDIT3: Double check the above text against what's in the image; dA likes to mess with the description text
Edit: added an extra section on what to do if you still cannot see your comment signature (or anyone else's)
A tutorial on how to set your comment signature.
I had trouble with this when I first started out, and I have seen many new deviants asking about it.
There are probably plenty of these floating around, but for some I decided to make my own.
I hope people find this helpful

for some reason, when i try this, the emote part just shows up as ": bademoticon :" any idea why this could be? O ^ O

It usually does that when the emote you're trying to use isn't actually submitted to the emoticons / chat friendly emotes category.

Not only a description but a fully illustrated example. WONDERFULL! Thank you so much!

Why I always got a :bademoticon: ?
EDIT: I tried resizing it as 150x26 but it still give me the same error...

Is it in the customisation/ emoticons /chat friendly emotes category? It will only be recognised as an emoticon if it is in there.
EDIT: I think I've found the one you're trying. Perhaps deviantArt only allows Customization / Emoticons / Chat Friendly Emotes / Small - up to 25x50 / Animated in signatures. Don't know for sure, but all the ones I know that work are in there.

Don't know, yesterday while browsing I've found a 150x11 emote and it was working fine both in comment signature and everywhere else, why mine shouldn't work then? :T

No idea if this will work, but maybe if you get the height under 25px?

I tried making it 150x24 but still nothing...
EDIT: also tried making 100x24 but still won't work :T
EDIT 2: I found the big emotes and is this:
I tried even making my emotes the same size as this one but still gave the same :bademote:. I reuploaded, resized, made it 1x1, everything, there's no guide anywhere about the problem, not even information about the limits. I have totally no idea what the fk is causing that annoying problem.
EDIT 3: Ok I tried making 5 different emotes on a side accounts and seems that now works, even if not animated.

Perhaps it was the file size? I recall it was around 211kb, but the working ones are much smaller than that. Although, your 1x1 attempt probably ended up as small as these others, so maybe not..

i saw a deviant use this

Just tested in my own signature and that emote works fine for me? 👍: 0 ⏩: 1
double check you have it entered as follows:

Ah, the issue is that that one is in the Digital Art / Pixel Art / Characters / Non-Isometric category. It needs to be in the emoticons category for it to work, like the other one is: Customization / Emoticons / Chat Friendly Emotes / Small - up to 25x50 / Animated
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
is there a pixel size limit on what's allowed in the signature?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Not that I know of, but it does need to pass as an emoticon to fit in the emoticons category.
