Havard Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 I'm impressed! How long does it take to do each one? H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMiFFAD Posted March 28, 2007 Author Share Posted March 28, 2007 I'm impressed! How long does it take to do each one? H. Supra one took about 1/2 hour i spose. Its not hard to do, most of the time goes into tidying it up to look nice "what graphic designers do in the evenings" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hadyn Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Same as you Smiffad, once i'd defected from the SXOC board to here, I really missed being able to put up a sig. Surely the mods could run a poll or something to see if members can put a sig up??? I think it would be good for the board meself... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesmark Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Dare I ask why??? H. They are just awful. Not the ones above so not meaning them, just in general. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian W Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 i think it's a no no because of the bandwidth that they take up, while making each page take longer to load. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMiFFAD Posted March 28, 2007 Author Share Posted March 28, 2007 I can see the arguments against them. its not so much of a problem with todays broad band speeds, but i tried to browse UJCC on my pocket pc the other day, some of the pages were coming in at 2mb, which was deathly slow, mainly due to the sigs and other related graphics. We even have limits emposed on physical and file size, but still eats bandwidth. Of course, on most fourms you can personally turn off the ability to see sigs.... so if you didnt wanna see em, you wouldnt have to Horses for courses, i have my sad avatar, that will do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 They are just awful. Not the ones above so not meaning them, just in general. Actually, they do clutter up the board a wee bit. One or two is ok but too many ruins the view. H. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mas Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Am glad we do not have graphic sigs. this forum could do without the sigys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakewebster Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 They look good! In generall graphics sigs do my head in, they make threads difficult to read and follow quickly, especially is trying to post pics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogmaw Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 what's wrong with just an avatar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SMiFFAD Posted March 28, 2007 Author Share Posted March 28, 2007 Just like to point out before i get mobbed by a group of angry, pitch fork weilding supra owners... i wasnt petitioning for graphic sigs to be brought in just thought id share my supra one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanM Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Thanks for sharing. but they always get bigger and fancier and animated and then you spend all sodding day scrolling past them. I have a CarArts print in my bedroom with my number on the plate, just to show how sad I really am Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonB Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 If you want to know why they aren't allowed, just look at Supraforums. Bloody annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndrewOW Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 Thanks for sharing. but they always get bigger and fancier and animated and then you spend all sodding day scrolling past them. I have a CarArts print in my bedroom with my number on the plate, just to show how sad I really am I have a CarArts mug with a black Supra, my number plate and wheels on it. A bit sad, but no one else dares to use it! Maybe if the avatar area could be changed to take slightly larger images/animation, as a compromise? I hate the coloured sig thing personally, as it detracts from what's being said. Its almost a competition to make the grossest image possible on other forums. I like your 'Cars' theme tho Smiffad.

Nic Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 I hate negotiating forums with graphics in the sigs, you can't tell where the sig starts and the thread finishes. Banish sig graphics to Hell I say says he with a smilie graphic in his sig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
