i'm working on another sig, however, i start off small and i keep
adding until it takes up a page and then people complain and i try
to make another. someday i'll learn and just make a monotonous
four-liner.
This is a ascii-art group, however, and i don't believe one's
imagination should be limited to 4 lines. However, i agree that
there has to be some limit or people will put all the quotes and
songs and movie scripts and pictures they have in their sig.
i think it is best to make a variety of signatures and post some
different ones, that way people will not get bored with what you have,
and you can change your quotes, etc. for each one.
Seeing that i am new at this signature stuff, my sigs are a bit large,
but once i get a quadzillion of them, they should gradually come near
the 4 line limit.
anyway, don't consider this a flame; just a discussion.
here is my "way too big" sig.(best if viewed on the same page)
i need to add some art to it anyhow.
