Yeah, I'm an Administrator on two of my own boards, and a mod on 3 others, and I've never had a problem with somebody posting porngographic images. I think you guys are just being a little to paranoid.

Porn isn't the only reason. I hate looking at huge banner sigs over and over again. The links to the Christina Aguilera board no longer work because they've gone to a membership only forum, but you can look at a variety of other boards to see examples. Besides, isn't it enough to allow urls in sigs so members can attempt to lure people away to their own boards on the exact same subject?

I still think you people are just to behind when it comes to forums. Get away from Phbb and you'll feel differently about sigs and avatars.

I agree that endless sigs and pics get annoying after a while. Esecially when there's an interesting thread, I don't like having to look for the actual post, which is sometimes a lot smaller than a huge (but irrelevant) picture.

Yea.
I think you should let ppl put images in their sigs and see what comes up.

If you dont like it then stop it.

Plus,I expect most ppl like me would have sigs of things like the last supper and with something like the v shape highlighted in it.

I think more are interested in the text content and the dicussion than seeing someone's absolutely pointless artistic efforts at a cliched Grail. The core membership here is so small that I think they all agree on this.

Everyone else usually pops by, says something along the lines of i just red de venci coad n i fink it wiz grate!!! kewl!!!!!! and disappears.

But why would we want to see that over and over and over again? If we want to see that, we can look at the picture in the gallery.

And oh, I know what comes up when you let people have pictures in their sigs...and it's not pretty.

LOL.
it took me a bit to decipher that, though. Spelling seems to me to be a lost art.

As for sigs, I think they are fine. A short quote or phrase is enough.
