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

[toys2cool]

I'm glad you took them off, they were pretty creepy. I wasn't gonna say anything though. To each his own and all that.

I thought since there were so many horror movie fans here that they would'nt mind it.The Exorcist in one of my favorite movies and I loved the way they made her look

Sorry, animated smilies are here to stay.

If it were up to me, signatures would be limited to one picture and/or three lines of text. It's supposed to be a signature, not a MySpace page.

I've seen other sites where you don't have to see the animated smileys. There must be an option here that I could use so they don't slow me down.

Turning off seeing signatures has nothing to do with being able to see pics in posts or the avatars next to people's names. I still see all of that normally, and I have sigs off.

Didn't know that.

But when you turn off sigs you lose other helpful information in sigs, such as website links, announcements when Joe or Hulk are having a sale, or when those freakin' Dida Displays finally come in.

But yeah, I don't mind the sigs, sometimes they're useful, so I won't be turning them off.

Damien, thanks for limiting your animated sigs

[megoscott]

Yes, thanks, that's very cool.

Toys, it was nice of you to consider everyone else's eyes with your animated sigs. I've gotten used to your Ultimate Warrior one, so even though I don't care for him, I barely see it anymore. It was pretty jarring when the other ones showed up, and there were scary monsters looking at me from the bottom of your posts!
The only one that bothered me was the overweight kid, but having 2 or 3 of them was a bit much visually.

Nice of you ask Toys but seriously don't think it really matters. Some things will always be offensive to somebody else. There's no getting around that, it's just a part of life. I do get tired of the "what if my child sees it" attitude though.

As long as nobody puts up one of those "Hang on in there Kitty" posters...we're cool!

[toys2cool]

Cool guys,thanx for the kind words.But honestly if I would've known I would've never put them.I didn't know it would slow some peoples computer or scare kids

[Johnny]

Very thoughtful of you to ask. Many people would not bother to do that.

>I bet they're killers for people on dial-up too.

Not only am I on dial up, but my computer is almost 15 years old (parts of it, anyhoo*) and they weren't a problem. After a few pages they get cache'd.

*FUN FACT: Windows XP freaks out when it detects a 15 year old SCSI port. Who knew?
