Darkfly's right, it's a pretty common banner, especially on tech forums. I actually think it's a good thing, as it makes people aware just how much imformation is broadcast from their computer when they use the net.

As for signatures in general - Darkfly I'm not picking on you as you are in no way the only one - but some sig sizes are reaching crazy sizes. I'm not talking large banners, I'm talking *insane* sizes with four or five banners piled on top of each other. I know it's Haken's board and Haken's decision, but should we have a max sig size? A rule to let people know how much is too much?

Yes, I'm aware of the irony of moaning about this when I have a whole site full of banners I shove under people's noses whenever I get the chance. I know. And if it's just me then it's just me and I'm happy to let it go. The last thing I want to do is make things uncomfortable for everyone. It just bothers me a bit.

EDIT: Hey, Fly! Where'd your post go???

EDIT#2: EVERYONE STOP CHANGING YOUR POSTS AFTER I'VE REPLIED!!!! My replies don't make sense any more :(

I accidentally deleted my post plus I've taken the banner down and now given the post over to pirates since all I wanted was for 1 person to say it was a bad idea and then I would take it down

And I'm taking the voting banner down since 2 of the competitions are ended,and yes I did notice they were big,first time making gifs banners so sorry about that

DH...I love your sigs!

I will admit that some get a bit carried away, but I still like the fact that most of them are show related and spreading the news!

It's okay. I know how addictive making gifs can be And yes, it's all to easy to get carried away!

It's not just you though, overall I'm noticing sigs getting larger and larger. Like I said, it may just be me. The forums I post on normally have a maximum size, so it keeps everything small and neat.

Also, Mav is evi. I feel it very important that everyone is made aware of this.

I've noticed that too especially in the last 6 momths,people are learning to make gifs just so they can make them for Firefly,see Firefly persuades us to do things we don't normally do, me included,cause of Firefly...Ican make Gifs,I have a Myspace,I learnt how to have a Custom Avatar,& now like Forums(FF.net was my first).

It appears my work here is done!

Excellent point, Darkfly. Fandom does indeed expand your world. I never even knew about internet forums before I became interested in Buffy. Now I post or lurk here, Buffy forums, Angel forums, Heroes forums, Goners forums, Penny-Arcade, Fark...
