[Ryan]

No ones getting shirty, we're just saying that it looks absolutey sh1t.

Hmmm ok , ive worked ****ing hard to get where we are now , and im proud of what myself and my fellow board members have achieved and im dam well going to show it of !

:lol:

That ludicrous picture represents what you have achieved??? How on earth do you figure that?? Remind to not come to any event you're involved with!!!!!! :lol:

(See what I mean??? I wouldn't attend an event on the strength of that image alone!! I wonder how many other people feel the same?? In fact, I wonder how many people decide to not even visit this community because they can't deal with all those Gatecrasher-esque cyber pictures???)

its clear you have a strong view against them mate, ive nevereally thought about them too much, i expect on 56k modem they will slow you donw quite a bit when thers a lot of larger ones but i think sensibily sized promotional ones aer ok, i mean we are a community here and all about a simialr scene so most of the people with the promotional ones are for the nights they put on etc, but yeah to take on your point of view perhaps ther should be a size limit or something to keep the big ones away.

Cool, at least someone is paying attention. The thing about the promotional aspect is - do these parties not get promoted to high heaven on here ANYWAY? I don't reckon that any user will go to the lengths required to create a mahossive signature promoting their wares, and not post them elsewhere, as an individual thread, on this foum and others. That's why it comes across as some kind of trophy, and self "big-upness" and I think that stinks. Promoting the notion that showing all that you do, all the time, is unhealthy, and will eventually lead to bad blood and competetiveness from fellow board members when there is no need for it.

Not to mention the previous reasons I mentioned- perhaps a size regualtion would be a good start.

ok, no disrepect here mate but you have only been a member here for a short time, while i can understand most of the points your making idont agree with this trophy/big-upness comment at all, everyone on here i know is pretty passionate about what there doing and i do think have a right to stick a banner on a forum advertising ther work, i dont see it as being a trophy at all and you can never have to much publicity for something as im aware of how hard it is to keep thigs going these days.

I think that a size reduction/limit to a banner is a good idea to speed things up and banners that arent doing anything other than looking nice possibly removed (random images etc/mine included) but i think we should see the majority of the boards views first.

I understand how it mustslow things down on a 56k modem also

[death on a stick]

Actually, going back and noticing which avatars/sigs I find annoying, they seem to belong to equally annoying individuals, so there seems to be a correlation there.

[Ryan]

No no no, that was an error - I tried to post a direct link to a pic in the gallery, but it's just posted your website - and that wasn't intentional at all.

[WEZ]

oh right , then i apologise for my outburst !

which picture did you want to post ?

[Patrick]

My tuppence worth : regardless of any artistic merit, or lack of, they definitely do slow the board down and make it much more difficult for people to use the board discreetly at work. Therefore they are definitely a deterrent to users.
As people (and coincidentally it seems to be the same people who are wittering on about "mutual respect" who are the main offenders) can't, or don't, voluntarily seem to want to respect the fact that it is annoying at best for work users - and some of the images, particularly the dodgy porn ones, could be sackable offences for some people in their jobs. For example, that one Wez has just used is blocked by our firewall, so my IP address will be appearing on our admins report for attempting to access a banned site every time I read a thread with that signature in it.

I agree that there should be a size restriction at the very least, if not an outright ban on them. Text only signatures would be preferrable.

The entire of the newest gallery actually - hence why it just linked straight to your homepage.

Don't worry about the outburst - I can take it. :)
