No sig/thank you/request should = no post.

Everything else should be deleted, the same should go for the desktop thread.

I think in the safety valve a post doesn't count anyway so it does = no post. hehehe. :P

Why? Seems like good clean fun most of the time and I think that we've established that "women" should stay out of the forums..... well at least provocative pics of them. :D

I'd like a fancy sig. I just haven't found the makings for it yet. I like Ireland's work. Maybe he'll have some time to waste and knock one off for me.

Not exactly the point I was trying to make. I was suggesting that all off topic posts be deleted, but that would be a lot of extra work for the mods although I think after a while everyone would get the picture (pun intended.) lol

and make it a tech forum like it should be?

actually i agree

the only SV threads should/would have to be approved by a mod before it was allowed and a limit of say 10 threads so the mods can keep an handle on it.

BTW Pacman777 outstanding sig made there by Ireland. his the best

Yup, what a great way to keep traffic on the site to a minimum....Because everyone would leave.

As for PacMan777's sig, not really my thing. It's way too big imo. But, to each his own.

bubba,
I agree, I think the rules should be changed to 400x130 or less, as those huge sigs ireland and others put out are large and distracting.

When the rules change, let me know, I have the software to make it smaller. I'm not stuck at this size. Most people could care less about the sig size (not ridiculously large of course) as long as the content doesn't mess with pages loading or one of those flashy moving sigs. Still some dialers out there. Smaller pics with their added lines of print can take up as much space and can be just as distracting. Maybe the rules should be a pic or text, but not both with a set limit as to how much space it can cover irregardless of content. AD could do away with sigs entirely. That would be a bit drab though.

Thanks Ireland. I like the interesting sigs, irregardless of size (within the limits). They add color to the forum; more so than ads we're presented with. ;)

I was putting my opinion out there, because I do not like to scroll down a page trying to read something to be halted by monster 500x200 sigs, i dont care what the KB size of it is.

Pacman, i find your sig extremely distracting.

If you notice, other users have to scroll almost the same amount of space to get by your sig. I'm not complaining, but some might.

As for mine, it is the exact same height of several others on the site, and I've heard no one complaining about them. When the rules change or I tire of it, I'll do something about the sig.

Other than the legal size of the sig, what is so distracting? As I mentioned, it's about the size of yours and surprisingly, both yours and mine contain warriors. ;)

oh the complaint wasnt made to be aimed completely at you, you just happened to be the poster on top of me lol

Everybody with large sigs here bothers me, but maybe this should be in the bitch thread instead of here :P

and btw mine is 350x120 as compared to 500x200 for u which for a forum is huge difference :D

faqman, give me some time or ask someone else if i take too long, sorry for the delay buddy :)

pacman, i have no problem with yours except for the space between the picture & the text, see if can reduce that space or incorporate the text into the picture. other than that leave the sig alone as it has my approval & mods trump staff member on that.

Thanks ddp. I was in the process of incorporating credit to Ireland inside the pic. That single line was taking up unnecessary space. It now meets what you were asking for.

Edit: DVDBack23
LOL You're right, our preferences for sigs would be a better subject for the bitch thread. Just a note though, you counted the size of the pic in your sig, but the 3 lines of text are taking up space as well. The pic in my sig fills in where you have text. To tell the truth, both are a bit bulky.
