So, I thought maybe the time would be ripe for us to get to use piccies in our siggys again... So that's why this thread. And hopefully something will come out of it! :) :salut2:

I voted "Yes". I'd like that. :)
I didn't realise that it was forum people who asked for them to be removed in the first place. :hin:

No I didn't mean to imply that; I think I know why they were removed, because of some juvenile circumventing the swear-filter through them. I just thought maybe we could have them back? :) And post a poll about it, so that if enough people want them back, maybe that would amount to something. :hin:
Is that not ok? :hin:

According to the most noble Mole, they were banned because someone was abusing them, or summat like that. I voted yes, simply 'cause I spent hours making myself a sig for other forums, and I can't post it here :laugh:

Ah I was just wondering what the point of the poll was :p If the decision wasn't made by users then it doesn't make much sense in asking them what they'd like :p
I can't think of any reason why users wouldn't want picture signatures so I'd just assume you get a 100% 'Yes' response. It won't change anything though because we already have enough problems with swearing as it is. Maybe if the community as a whole grew up enough not to swear we could look into it, but we'd have to have a large period of time with no swearing for that to happen. The longest I've seen without swearing is only a few days sadly :(
(I don't mean to imply everyone needs to grow up by the way :p Just that there are still lots of people out there who join and then ignore the rules, but if the internet/gaming community outside of these forums grew up then that'd be less of a problem).

Ah well, sadly that makes this sound like a lost cause then..:( I just thought, maybe you mods could take a stand on this too with us users, and maybe it would have some effect?
Seems rather pointless to prohibit the use of piccies in siggies, as the moderators are there anyway... If someone breakes the rules, out they go, it's pretty hard to not to notice the siggies anyway you know...
Meh, I'm propably not understanding all the nicheties of this. Once again... lolblue:
Well, I'm out for a while, I'm hoping to purchase a new CPU! bounce: Yay! I hope they got them ready at the store... And I don't fry my set! lolblue:

Well, there you go all, not everyone wants them piccies back to them siggies! Maybe not such a useless poll after all!

Depends how big the pics are. If you make a reasonable limit, it doesn't look too bad...

Okay, so seeing as teh poll is closed, the results are in. And we win! w00t! Piccys, please :p
Imagine the bandwith involved lightbulb
Pics were removed for bandwith and abuse and are unlikely to come back for the time being. Sorry!
