Lu523 Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 Will we be able to use pics in our sigs? I have seen some. Just thought I would ask first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fulcy Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 As far as I know, pics were frowned upon in sigs, out of respect for users with dial up and slow connections... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UN Spacy Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 Well. Does this mean we'll be able to use animated gif's? I have a great Dave Chapelle BLACKZILLA one that I'd like to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azrael Posted August 21, 2003 Share Posted August 21, 2003 Well. Does this mean we'll be able to use animated gif's? I have a great Dave Chapelle BLACKZILLA one that I'd like to use. I think the rules still apply. Give em a week or 2 to get settled in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agent ONE Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 So are picts in sigs okay now?Vostok 7 No... I think Shawn is saying that if one wants to he or she can avoid 'sig stupidity' all together by opting out of the whole thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vostok 7 Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 Yes, I understood that part. What I was asking is if that means picts in sigs are okay now since we have the option of not displaying sigs and avatars on the client side.

robokochan Posted August 25, 2003 Share Posted August 25, 2003 To the Moderators, I apologise for having a pic in my signature. And thank you for saving me the time in taking it off myself. But you deleted the text and the pic and added, in my opinion, a "smart" comment that stayed there all day. I can understand that the Boards are in chaos right now. If something was wrong, just delete it or send me a PM to tell me to remove it myself. You don't have to put comments in my signature that make me appear as if I am stupid or something. You could have left the text which had nothing to do with the pic, and saved yours comments. You made it look as though I wrote that myself. I don't appreciate that.

EXO Posted August 25, 2003 Share Posted August 25, 2003 p.s. of course I will periodically turn my sigs back ON so I see what crazy stuff some of you put in there...LOL If sigs are not allowed then what does this mean??? P.S. I don't really care for pics in sigs either, some are really ugly, but it seemed to me, that Shawn said it was OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JsARCLIGHT Posted August 25, 2003 Share Posted August 25, 2003 I'm still waiting on an executive response on this myself in the pinned FAQ topic about sigs. If pics in sigs are outlawed then how come some people still have them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob MN Could you describe the "smart" comment in question? I am actually kinda rude to members who put pics in sigs as it is bad Ju-Ju, but I am curious asto what you see as 'over the line.'

Tekkaman Blade Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 Can we at least have 100 x 100 pixel avatars? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Jenius Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 He got the standard "I'm not allowed to have pics in my signature" You got the same treatment as everyone else MN, don't take it personal. I'm curious what was 'smart' about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robokochan Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 Max J, At the time I saw it, it took me alittle by surprise. I don't mind the fact that my pic was removed. And it is my own fault for not reading the rules more carefully. And as for getting the same treatment as everyone, well after I noticed that it was gone and check this section, I noticed there were still members with pics in thier sigs that post alot more often than I do. Writing something that made it look as though I had wrote it myself. That is what I ddin't appreciate. If someone added something to your signature without you knowing it you would be alittle irritated as well. And that would go for anyone. A simple "Sorry - No pics allowed." would have been more appropriate. Or just simply delete the pic. No comments necessary. A simple PM saying "Hey no pics please change it", it would have even saved you some time. Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People need to chill and realize that we're not out to get them. If I wanted to make fun of you, I'd do it in the threads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Monkey-N, you remember when that Jive talkin A-Hole from Arizona was giving you a bad time, basically calling you names, and or racial slurs? I don't remember exactly what he said but I remember he was out of controll. It was these same mods that kicked that guy out FAST and got rid of his posts. These guys log in multiple times a day to patrol the boards with no thanks from us. You should just forget it. The Mods left the same sig in everyone's sig space that had an image there.

EXO Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 I got the same thing when I put something there. It was a little tiny pic. But when I came back on the same remark was there. I thought it was funny, no biggie. Also remember that where Monkey-N is at, the temper is different. People are a lot more polite there, so maybe he's just not use to that type of indifference.

robokochan Posted August 27, 2003 Share Posted August 27, 2003 Max J, I owe you an apology. I did over react to the whole stituation. I think it was just an accumulation of various events that happened that day. It was just the straw that broke the perverbial camel's back. I usually take thing is stride and don't think too much about it. Everyone is right and I went alittle crazy over this situation. My apologies.
