Title: Images in signatures
Post by: Grizzly on June 25, 2007, 05:59:23 am

Is it just me, or is my nice image in my signature not showing up?

the image is supposed to be this:

Sig images are disabled here, thankfully.

As Black Wolf said - we've found it easier to disable image signatures as they'd inevitably be abused and don't really serve much of an advantage. You'll have to cope :)

I believe the admins made a good choice in disabling sig pics. I've seen other forums with them (as I believe we all have), and it is extremely annoying to scroll past all these pics that invariably take up far more space than 80% of the messages posted.

Like i said before, Those forums could add options to disable viewing of pictures in sigs, but lets not get into that arguement :ick:

Who cares about images in sigs? Just quote people and make a nice long siggy with lots and lots of text. Images in signatures is about as smart as expecting ice cream to stay frozen on the surface of the sun.

Not siggy images makes the pages load quicker, too. :nod:

-Joshua-, put this in your siggy:

Code: [Select]

[url=http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d102/dvj4/Ban1337.gif]For the sake of the future...[/url]
which produces:

For the sake of the future... (http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d102/dvj4/Ban1337.gif)

I think that will be sufficient.  Just add size tags and bold or italic, if you want...

I believe that summarizes my position well enough.

BTW, -Josh-, I suppose you've got a problem with shorthand, too, right?  :lol:
