Sigs are bandwith hogs and makes it difficult for ppl with slow conncetions to browse. As a matter of fact, I know some ppl that surf with sigs turned off aswell as animation.

Unless you can make a strong arguement that it's gonna enhance the surfing experience, it's not gonna happen in the near future.

[Ratko]

Just to clarify, sigs dont affect OUR bandwidth, but the bandwidth of the people browsing TN.

[Peter]

well as u said with people with slow connection and turn it off as the alredy do but with poeple with a faster connection its ok.......its up to them to keep on sigs and pic or not...

[Toysrme]

Force log everyone off and put a forced read poll on when logging in. Ask who's on broadband and who's not and who wants animated sigs and who doesn't.

Personally I don't care as long as the size of the sig does notget any larger.

How about this. I got it from Mazda forum.

You get a huge sig and stuff on your first post. Then the following, you don't have ur sig anymore.

I didn't understand that at all.... Graduate a few more grades and then post


Basically it will only benifit you for your own amusement. So why should we allow it when it slows everyone elses connection speed? We're lucky they even let us have signatures. They could ban those too for all they cared.

There's no real reason to have animated ones besides amusement.

Well, i meant if you want the idea, here is something you could do.

The first post you make to a thread, you can have a pretty big pic as a sig.
The 2nd, 3rd, etc posts you don't have the pic anymore.

Go browse some other car forums where they don't enforce sig rules. It's a complete mess when browsing. It's bad enough when someone has an animated sig, and posts like 10 times within a thread, but imagine 5 other people involved in that thread having an animated sig as well? I don't care how fast your computer is, it WILL slow down your browsing, especially the scrolling of pages.

Anyone remember that sig with a kid drifting a tricycle? That used to screw up my machine on broadband big time.

[CamNub]

What about small animated smileys?

Not like these =, but ones i find off the net?
We can use those right?

[Piddy]

I think as long as it's under 50kb and within the size requirements it shouldn't matter.

[SmokingTires]

Give a decent reason of why you need one. Otherwise give it up
