Personally, I never could stand signatures with images and all the other fancy, colorful junk that often gets thrown (...) (21 years ago, 28-May-03, to lugnet.admin.nntp)

It quite frankly draws your attention away from the text, and (...) (21 years ago, 28-May-03, to lugnet.admin.nntp)

| | | | | | Popping in for a second. I *mostly* use a newsreader still, so much of this doesn't effect me, but I still think it's a cool move to add some more dimension to Lugnet. As for people worrying about large or animated sig banners... The community has (...) (21 years ago, 28-May-03, to lugnet.admin.nntp)

But yes, in general it might be nice to somehow restrict image size. (...) (21 years ago, 28-May-03, to lugnet.admin.nntp)
