Am I the only one who finds these wildly annoying? I doubt it.

Yes.
No.

Am I the only one who finds the two question the opposite?

They are seperate questions Teo.

The poll stands on it's own.

P.S. Thanks for your support!

They don't bother me unless they stretch the forum, there's one over on the Rennlist that does it and it's sort of annoying. But as long as they're within a certain size it's fine with me, usually they're pretty cool.

Also, many forums have a size restriction on signature pictures and text. Like the image can only be 500x150 pixels or less for example.

I'm gonna say yes to that. But it's just a personal thing (you are provided an area for an avatar, after all)

Not that I really want it banned or anything.

Every other board I frequent has sig pics, and moderators who police them to make sure they're not too big, or too obnoxious.

I think my pic is pretty reasonable, and I use it as a link to my cardomain site through the miracle of URL/IMG tags.

If you're getting annoyed by sig pics of a reasonable size and relevant content, I think it's time to take a little vacation.

Actually yours are the most offensive. Paul and Neil both have a small reasonable picture at the end of their posts. When reading a thread that you frequent it is so choppy due to the size of your pictures it makes it difficult to read. When it is every other post it is awful.

We had this discussion awhile back on this board and was considering making this post/topic myself.
I fully agreed with the desision that was made previously,
Pictures ONLY in the avitar and NOT in the signature!

please disable this feature in the coding mods!

i think its a waste of bandwidth. it is especially annoying when you have one guy/gal with a picture signature that posts three or four post to a topic - how repeative is that . . . post a link to your website, don't showcase your pics in your signature - its just down-rigth distracting and online gamer-like.

I don't care for the animated avatars. Very distracting while you're trying to read. Rennlist has these and it makes if very difficult...like somone waving a flag out of the corner of your eye while reading.

no offense to the member, but could you imagine what it would be like if timstar92404 found out that you could put images in a signature?

well, I'guess I've made my point - I'll stop spamming. Oh, and for when I take my annoying signature example off, and folks want to get an idea of what was annoying . . .

this image was in my signature to make my point - imagine that on this page 4 times. . .
