I'd like sig pics as well. But.....
1. Most folks don't know how to compress an image, and people were having 150K signature pictures. This is cruel to dial-up users, and it's tough to police all the signatures and hound people to compress their images. (time consuming)
2. Some people like BIG sig pics. Even if we had a rule about width and height, some folks won't abide by that (or not know about the rule) and it creates another situation where we'll need to police and be the "bad guy" and have to hound people to shrink the images. (time consuming)
3. Sig pics can be too long, causing a ton of scrolling to get to the meat of the thread. (time consuming)
4. Some people feel the need to put pictures of their dogs, boats, sports logos, and other trucks/cars. Not sure we want that.
5. Speed. A quick site is a good site. To go overboard on graphics can reduce the sites performance for everyone.
As you can see, it would add a lot of work for us if we enabled pics, and we'd end up being the 'bad guy' all the time when we have to hound members to modify their signatures in some way.
All that said, I would love to have a pic of my GS in my signature, but we'd be opening pandora's box, IMHO.
I'd be interested in hearing everyone's feedback on this, as I can only see this situation through my eyes.
Keep the comments coming..... :thumbsup:
