IWC: Unnecessary signatures

These stupid clutter boxes serve absolutely nothing, they contain huge pictures of little value. It is so hard to sift through a message quickly and try to find what is necessary and what isn't. shouldn't a signature be something along the lines of "AnsisK", "Keep it sideways", "rock on!" etc? not this chopping crew, newest projects crap? All of those quotes? I saw a maximum of 1 line or if that's not enough to keep the clutter down, 30 characters long. So annoying!

1. Isnt there supposed to be a poll for us to vote on this?

2. 500 characters is limit enough.

1. I oculdn't find any poll, too many signatures. Your for instance is 3/4 of the message, all of it is un necessary. I don't know if this BB has the function of displaying your website as an icon, but that cuts down a bit.

There is a poll option at the bottom of every "Start New Thread" Reply screen. It has nothing to do with my signature. The point of starting a thread in this forum is to include a poll along with it of some kind so as to have other members vote on it according to their thoughts. Im sorry if my signature is of an inconvenience to you, but Im over it already. If you would like to get a poll up, you can ask a moderator what they can do.

I'd vote no on the poll if there was one. However, maybe a better thread would be "IWC: Members who can follow directions"

You do know that in the "user CP" theres is an option that allows you to turn off members sigs, so that are not viewable by yourself?
