    Another blow to the firefox nerds!
    You've reminded me what i hate in sigs.
    The firefox promos.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,280 ✭✭✭✭Sleepy


    Anything with 1337 speak, sys-specs or pictures are in my ****can.

    My favourites are Mordeth's and cajun_tiger's

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,698 ✭✭✭garthv

    the main reason i started this thread was because of doodle_sketch's sig, you dont need all the info in a bloody sig!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,878 ✭✭✭Rozabeez

    Browsing sigs off is the way to go...

    User CP->Options:

    Visible Post Elements

    You have the option to show or hide various elements of messages, which may be of use to users on slow internet connections, or who want to remove extraneous clutter from posts.

    [ ] Show Signatures
    [ ] Show Avatars
    [ ] Show Images (including attached images and images in IMG code)

    can't think of any at the moment, there have been a few ridiculously large ones in recent times but they're mostly gone now. Anything sig taller than 5cm on my screen annoys me.



    Here's a hint ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,136 ✭✭✭Superman


    Yeah I definitely agree that the worst sig's are the PC Spec ones then the bent firefox promo's (most people seem to like it cause it's fringe, like independent movies, which are 90% crap).
    Then there are sig's which just look crap and don'tr make sense


  • Subscribers Posts: 9,716 ✭✭✭CuLT


    Err, any chance that people could *not* turn this into a bitching over Firefox / IE6 thread, like wtf :confused: .

    [edit] hehe, i'd just like to point out I've found someone with both firefox promos AND system specs in their sig ;) [/edit]


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,851 ✭✭✭PurpleFistMixer


    Any sig that has blatant spelling or grammar errors. (Because yes, I'm that much of a grammar pedant.)

    Any sig that has system specs. (For reasons people have already said, I don't want to know how much better your computer is than mine.)

    Any sig that has writing in the same size and font as normal posts. (Because then I think it's part of the post initially. Writing is fine as long as it's interesting/witty in a non pun way, or just easily identifiable as a sig, so I can ignore it.)

    Any sig that has big obnoxious pictures.

    Those'd be the ones that spring to mind...

    And now "sig" is losing all meaning...

    Wow... I was wondering... just opened up IE and checked it..

    That's deadly!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,258 ✭✭✭✭Rabies


    I have sigs turned off. Don't see any unless I look at a members profile.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,732 ✭✭✭StupidLikeAFox


    No-one is upset about getting the finger everytime i post then?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31,967 ✭✭✭✭Sarky


    That's a finger?

    i like my sig, primarily cause it took me ages cause im crap with php. it takes the RSS feed from my site and uses the php gd to generate the sig on the fly each time its viewed. it's actually in the same vain as those super-crap 'your operating system is...' sigs, but i hope not as retarded/annoying. it was quite the achievment for a non developer like myself.

    I like sigs, and i like making them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,484 ✭✭✭✭Stephen


    Any sig that's just someone's name done in photoshop/paintshop pro/whatever. We already know what your name is.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,851 ✭✭✭PurpleFistMixer


    Ever notice that when people sign things with their signature, it tends to be their name?

    Meditate on this.

    In the world of pen and paper, yes. Here, your name is there to the left of your post already though.

    I like pictures in sigs, seeing as you can't have custom avatars.

    Yeah. Good call. I wanted to use the pic in my sig as an avatar, couldn't so put it in my sig.

    1. Computer spec sigs
