ToME sig

#1 Post by Minion »

Hi, newcomer to the game and thought I'd show off my ToME inspired forum sig. :P

If anyone else wants one just let me know.

Nice looking one, though I generally dislike signatures that take up more space than the post it comes with.
In long threads with big signatures they tend to use up quite a lot of pages.
Stronk is a potent combatant with a terrifying appearance.

While I really like the sig, we don't do images in signatures. Being a low-bandwidth forum sucks sometimes.
And it was such a good idea...

The sig isn't being hosted on your server.

Understandable, which is why users are given the option to disable sigs in their individual forum preferences.

I thought we don't do signature images because signature images usually suck?

Think about it how even you could have a snazzy picturesque signature linking to your site.

We've never done sig images (or avatars, for that matter) in the 11 years that I've been here. We don't get a ton of server space and not everyone who comes here has an excellent internet connection. This is a simple forum, and images would start to clutter things up.
And it was such a good idea...

What, no way.

I just finished hand-painting my own awesome sig image.

Oh well, I'll post it anyway.

If a picture speaks a thousand words then that, sir, is a strongly worded essay listing all that is wrong with allowing picture sigs on forums!

I for one prefer non sig. messages. Sigs. waste screen space - less is More.

That was the determination of the staff when we brought the question up. So yeah, no images in sigs, sadly.
And it was such a good idea...
