Ciber, Wilik, is there a possibility for you to allow animated sigs, that's within 400*80 and the filesize, just like a little glow in the pic or whatever, if you wont allow it ever, then taskete, tell me why?

Anyone has anything to say about it...

...Remember this is a spontaneous question... just feel free to discuss.

Animated sigs will NOT be allowed. The reasons are they are distracting and people dont go on the forums to look at pictures moving, they go to read the actual content of the posts.

However I've seen some people with animated-sigs here, strider for example, hmm... this makes no sence.

We havent removed them yet, we have over 4000 users. It takes time to go through all those users and check for sig violations.

Read the rules, animated sigs (this includes flash) is not an option. We DO NOT allow them.

ehh fair enough.

i guess i skipped over the flash part, i just decided it was easier not to even use a sig.

Flash i can see why, takes time load, some people may not have it, uses banwidth.

.gif's i can sort of see also. Ive been to many forums where some guy has a dancing image, or something to that degree and i have to load it up everytime i click on one of his posts.

Yeh, i remeber when i use to browse a couple forums before i had flash, it would hang up on me for a while and ask me to install. Really a pain.
