I can see them with my nifty dark theme. I dont think the hidden sigs work so well.

I don't even know what you're talking about, by dark theme I assume you mean the darkling theme but what are these hidden sigs?

Probably people using white text in their signatures, similar to how mine has two identical phrases in the two backgrounds of the darkling theme.
(For those of you unlucky enough not to know what darkling is, it's the theme from the DF sections applied to the entire forum. It has two alternating background colours(every second post shares a background colour)

Qwertyuiopas right. I can see his just fine. There a few other with a sig like that.

You can only see one of them.  He has two.  Just highlight his whole sig, you'll see.

Yeah, the hidden sigs doesn't work too well because of those alternating colours.
If you use the glow tags, you could potentially hide it completely.
Like this, but with the right colours.
That would still not work completely though, again because of those alternating colours.

That could work, pretty well. Highlightly doesnt even reveal it.

Can see the text fine, don't even have to really focus on it to see it.

I can see'em both.
Without highlighting? I find this extremely doubtful. It seems like they're the exact same color. Just to check, I print screened, put it into paint, and bucket-colored the forum background. The bottom signature disappeared too. This should indicate that if it's not the exact same color as the darkling background, it's at least far, far too close to be seen by the human eye.
