Could animated sig pics be prohibited? They are very distracting when viewing threads. I don't mind sig pics usually (Eridanus notwithstanding), but animated pics are a little much.

Well, although I think that sig pics slow down a thread and lengthen the page, I know that some people take great pride in their pics(some of which I can understand why). Perhaps it should just be considered part of netiquette that sig pics be posted only only once per page of topic?

Hey, how do sigs work anyways? Is it just a block of text and BBcode that folks paste at the end of each post, or is it automatically added somehow?

And WPW, you have to insert it into every post you make, it's not automatic.

No.

How can a picture slow down a thread? Especially in RP's where you have many characters, sig pics enhance the thread, and are sometimes even essential to keeping one character straight from another. Want to look for the last post about that certain character? Find the last picture of that character!
