username Posted July 24, 2002 Share Posted July 24, 2002 Get rid of image sigs, and keep avatars, they just have to be hosted someplace else. Anything so the server runs better, this blows man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hurting101 Posted July 24, 2002 Share Posted July 24, 2002 If avatars are externally linked, then we get the ugly popping up all over the place. Since it seems alot of us use avatars for identification, I think it's better to leave them on Neowin's server, or store all the avatars some place else.

There's enough images linked already. I used to spend alot of time on the Winamp and Spinner forums and theirs are set up perfect. As I remeber and always did there, when people keep replying to the same post, they disable their sigs so they don't show up over and over again. Never noticed any probs on those forums.

riven_uk Posted July 24, 2002 Share Posted July 24, 2002 All sigs make a user that bit more unique in an ocean full of posts We all like a bit of eye candy and some people have real talent and this is shown in some kick ass sigs - and then there's people who don't and spend like 5mins just playin about - like me :p If gfx really do cause a problem - then tighten the sig rules - but don't remove the option all together :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twist Posted July 24, 2002 Share Posted July 24, 2002 img sigs don't matter, they aren't one the server so it just pulls the stuff outta the db. [vB] code would take more to process then an image tag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
