Question about my sig avatars,does it bother you guys?

[ABMAC]

not yours specifically, I find them all annoying. I didn't know they could be turned off. I looked around and can't find the switch.

there I put a funny one instead,I was thinking of this one


thanx again for the help guys

Honestly, I tend to just gloss over the graphic sig lines - didn't even really notice yours! For whatever reason, I'm more likely to read text than to look at the pictures.

I like the Mr T.... But I like the Dumb and Dumber one better

Awesome! Now I can browse the forums in peace.

I made this one about a year ago (from scratch)... but I think it's way too intense for dial-up people

I love the Excorcist, it's one of my all-time favorite films, but the images do jar me a little when I'm reading through a page. I'm mostly thinking fun, entertainment-related thoughts when I come to post here at the MM (recent Heath Ledger threads aside), and then -- Yikes! It's Pazuzu and Regan MacNeil scowling at me! It's a bit unnerving, I have to admit. But maybe I'm being too sensitive.

They don't bother me for their content. They bother me on principle. If everyone on this board had "sig avatars" that were animated like that it would be a nightmare reading threads around here. They are very distracting.

To be honest, yeah they bother me.
And no, I won't turn off pics and such, cause then I can't see any pics or avatars anymore

I'm almost positive they can be all turned off.

I think I remember Paul (Hulk) mentioning that he keeps them turned off.

I don't turn them off, I just use AdBlock (a Firefox browser plugin) on the image the first time it loads and I never see it again (I use it at work as well, so I guess I see them twice). Obviously there are some people that find them amusing, and I notice them changing (or adding to them) frequently. Mainly I do this because it kills the flow of text and makes the forum annoying to read.

The good thing about AdBlock is that I can kill any image I want from ever appearing again, so at work I kill the forum headers, Amazon ads, signature images, etc, and I have a fairly tame looking experience. At home I keep the forum headers I like, and just kill the less interesting ones.

I turned the sigs off a long time ago (thanks to Commander Pat's 10 or 20 sigs), so I don't even see them.

Its getting to be much. Pick one and than rotate it with the others!

Funnilly enough I had thought about this a couple of days ago before you posted this thread.
They don't bother me as an adult but as a father I have reservations about two of them. My son(7) often hovers over my shoulder when I'm on the PC and he caught a glimpse of them the other day. I had to switch the page quickly.
It's a free world and i'm certainly not going to ask you to change them, i'm just giving you my thoughts.

My 6 year old daughter tells me its scary and she asks me to change it.
