Who is this anamoly we call Jumpman? How is he able to do what he does and still survive after years of torment? It seems he feeds on the hate, growing with an intense passion to put unassuming members in their place.

I browsed the Gamespot forums the other day. Ugh... I hate images in sigs, it\'s just awful. I like it neat, so I vote NO FOR IMAGES IN SIGS.

We don\'t have limitations on our sigs. We technically do since if the admins feel if its too big, they go in and edit it and change it to make you seem like your a homosexual.

Pics in sigs for mods only...

See what happens when you compromise?
July 2002: If you had bought $1000.00 worth of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00. Enron, $16.50 left. Worldcom, $5.00 left. If you had bought $1,000.00 worth of Budweiser beer one year ago, drank it all and turned in the cans for the 10 cent deposit, you would have $214.00. Based on the above, my current investment advice is to drink heavily and recycle.

one thing I hated bout this site is the no images in sigs rule. I highly doubt 400x150 size pics in sigs are goin to be the end of the world. When you guys rag on sigs in pics you must be talking about the unregulated friggin huge ones that take up half a page.

It\'s pretty easy to follow, maximum sig pic size is 400wx150h, if someone makes one bigger they get thier sig privledges removed for a week and if they do it again they get banned, plain and simple.

For everyone whining about sig pic size slowing down all the 56gayers, they deserve to go slow for still having that shit. aAnd like all the "hot babe threads" arent slowing them down but you know they\'re waiting for those pics to load with the KY next to them.

I think it would definatly add some more color to this forum if it was allowed, it\'s too bad there are to many fucking anal people.

^ What he said.

Building a web forum to accomodate 56kers is ridiculous in 2005.  It\'s a weak argument anyway.  A pic that is 150x400 pixels ends up around 11k - 15k in size if you pay even the slightest attention to the jpeg settings.  That is probably smaller than a normal banner image, and I\'m sure we ALL visit websites with many more images than psx2central.

Some say we would just get sick of seeing the same image over and over, but don\'t we already get sick of the same avatar, and the same signature over and over?  How is this any different or worse?  I don\'t understand why this forum has to remain in the stone age, when adding a little creativity and flexibility might keep things interesting.

Thats why you can choose to not have one ;), just because it\'s allowed doesn\'t mean you have 2 have one.

Seriously I think it\'s worth a try and hell if it doesnt work out just remove the privledge and it\'ll be like it was before.

I agree with that first statement completely. Personally i dont care too much, it is just that sites that allow pictures in sigs carry associations to stupid forums/people in forums etc. so i can kinda understand  the sentiment of not wanting them.

I guess there are just a lot of low tech fogies on this site but this is in some ways a technology forum.

Meh.

Always gotta make sites with low end users in mind.

Besides, I don\'t read your sigs now, I don\'t want to have pictures in the way, too.

bandwidth was never an issue for sig pics

i just don\'t want to see them 10 times in a thread

therefore, we will never have them

I agree with mm.

Any site I go on that has them, the first thing I do is delete them.
