You did notice that this ended about a month ago, right? Anyway, I haven't noticed many people with image signatures, but I don't know if this is just from generally low interest in them or low knowledge of the opt-in preference. (I would say more the former, since I have gotten several compliments on mine.)

I'd vote for several lines of text and no images...if I knew how to. :P

Images in signatures are excellent for fora which are status oriented and put a high value on creative artwork and/or creative plagiarism.

DF artwork that bags status tends to be of the ASCII variety, while other more elaborate art can be better posted as links or images in a post anyhow.

Those are my 2 dwarfbucks.
 
Many fora give the option to limit signatures to the first post of a member in a thread, IIRC when the thread is initiated. But sometimes also in memberprofile-preferences.
Haven't checked what this forum allows as I'm not much for signatures.

So, now that we've had images in .sigs for a few months, have the boards turned into an elitist version of 4chan?
 
No?
 
Didn't think so. :)

The point of your post is to instigate more arguing over something trivial, right?


Good job.

Since this matter has been resolved, pretty much, and it's now teetering on the edge of the potty, I'll go ahead and lock this.
