Angry You guys forced me to do it...

Even with broadband, you guys forced me to turn of sigs. They are taking up way too much screen space.

I actually find the banner ads less intrusive

How about limiting your sig size to 470x60 like the banners? That's about equal to 5 lines for the text only guys.

I fully agree, and I'm on a T1 line.

The sig photos are nice, but I don't need to see a one-line post followed by a montstrous sig photo.

(amdeutch, are you reading this?)

No...actually your sig is just about right. Amdeutch's signature takes obnoxious to a new level

I really would like to see the sigs smaller...big waste of screen space even with a fast connection.

If I want to look at it, I'll copy it to my drive. Otherwise we're forced to look at it 446 times.

At least have that girl change her clothes once in a while.
:p

You guys think the sigs here are big? The sigs here are some of the most tame I've ever seen on a forum. Check some of these sigs out (especially mattrick's):

I get annoyed when I have to hunt for the text of the post. Additionally, text-only looks alot more like the contract I'm supposed to be reviewing, rather than surfing mbworld.

it's not how long the big sigs take to load that is the problem, it's the amount of screen space they take up.
