Actually, you're _less_ likely to be flamed for big sig here than in
other groups - _if_ it contains some nice ascii art. Such signatures are
on-topic for the group, and often part of the content (ever see
llizard's final "twist" to messages by adding a comment in her sig?).
However, you are _more_ likely to be flamed because you use some "bad"
character - anywhere in your message! (except possibly if it is needed
to spell your own name correctly)

As a new user you are expected to read the FAQ. If somebody posts
pictures made for proportional fonts, or pictures containing
"non-standard" characters that in itself suggests that that person did
_not_ read the FAQ!
