I know that some of you may not agree with me, but I have some complaints about pictures in signatures.
1. They are so big! It makes it so that you have to scroll a bunch just to read the next post.
2. There are so many of them! Combined with the size, it once again it so that you have to scroll a bunch just to read the next post!
3. I am personally really, really annoyed by animae pictures. I know that I am not the only person on here. I just am really annoyed by it.
4. Some of the pics people use are not the most appropriate. I've seen some stuff on here that I don't think belongs on here. I really don't want to see some of the stuff people use.
So, here is my idea for a solution. We should set some rules for signatures. We can then elect somebody to enforce those rules. I really hope that you do not all get mad at me for this.

well in your siggy you have pictures. Why yell at everyone else when your just saying not to put them and you have them. I just press Page down to got to the next post. And siggys can be inappropriate at times so just don't look at them. Another thing is to show off someone's personality or apearence. I personalyy like looking at what people have found.

i'm not saying that i'm against pictures. and, if your pictures are inapropriate, they should not be allowed. i do not feel comfortable with some of the pictures people have. i also think that it is fun to look at peoples pictures, but, not when they are not appropriate.

I agree that some of the pics are a little large, but it's ok to have them and to have more than one, I mean, that's the fun of siggys, you can see what other peoples characters look like!
But I do agree that some of the pictures are a bit...objectional. And they're kind of hard to miss because they're so big.
All in all, I think that you (Angelina) should PM the Headmistress, not post a topic about it. That's not the best way to go about this sort of thing, if you know what I mean.

I agree with most of your points, but I don't think its fair to hound on anime, some people probably have that pic as the best one to look like thier character ( like me) and they are so easy to adjust to fit. While I agree with the very obscene and some rather large pics, I completely disagree with your opinion on Anime.

I agree with Kevin. See, there shouldn't be an inappropriate things in siggy pictures, and sometimes it's a little annoying if they're too big, but then again you can just press page down... and also, you shouldn't be against anime. Although it's not your favorite type of picture, you can't stop almost the entire site from using it.

I know that I can't do anything about animae. I just stated that I didn't like it. Some of the stuff that I think is inappropriate is animae. That's all. But, thanks for backing me up on the other stuff.

Im sure you find mine to be inappropriate then?
I agree that some can be inappropriate.....like I didnt particularly like it when Mai's sig said something about waking up with rei's shirt on (if its a PG-13 site, there shoudlnt be allusions to characters sleeping together) but its up to the admin to regulate such things.
I think if there is particular peopels sigs you ahve a huge problem wiht, you could just PM them, express your concerns, and see if they are willing to change it.....if not, then go to the headmistress

Good idea Blaze! You should do that Angelina. I don't think that Angelina was harping on Anime, just saying that sometimes the picture itself and what it shows or insinuates can be a bit obscene. So ya, go do that Angelina.

Yay, picture complaints! *grins* XD...sorry...
I agree, some are humongous...and at least if you are going to have one humongous one, keep it as one, not 3, 4 or 5... we don't need to know what your character looks like 6 times, we really don't. And there's no point putting your whole family in your sig either...at least not if they are going to be 800 × 900 or something around that... *slaps head*
Anime pictures, I don't have a problem with those, I think it's fine, yes, inappropriate anime pictures should not be allowed, along with real life inappropriate pictures.
On the site Magic Horizons there was a 'Signature Police' or whatever, someone made an account, and if they thought the signature was inappropriate, or too large (or too many large pics) then they confronted you about it...
^.^

ok well miss angelina apparently does not like my signature at all, so i this is what I said back to her
I personally feel that this signature displays who my character is best. I also spent quite a bit of time making it, and would be disappointed if I had to get rid of it. I know she is wearing limited clothing, but there is no nudity and nothing sexual about it. I have asked other people to make me a new one, but the pictures arent very good, and I hate to take down an avatar that displays my character perfectly to replace it with a mediocre one
I also stated that she has been the only one to complain about it....other have complimented it. and I said that she isnt even posting here anymore and I dont think I should have to remove my signature for one complaint from a person who isnt even on the site any longer
however, if others find it to be offensive I will remove it once I find a more suitable signature (i ahve requested one from Filles) but as it has been up for voer a month and i havent recieved any complaints besides hers, it is staying for now

Well, Miss Angelina is now Miss Rachel Duly. And Miss Rachel Duly doesn't like it. And Miss Blaze Oceana was the one who suggested to Miss Angelina to ask the people that had signatures that Miss Angelina had problems with to please change them. And because Miss Blaze Oceana doesn't want to change it, Miss Rachel Duly is going to take Miss Blaze Oceana's advice and talk to the headmistress about it. How does Miss Blaze like that?

I have no problem with that at all. As I said, I just didnt feel I needed to remove my signature fbecause one person who no longer posted anymore didnt like it. No one else had complained and other complimented it. Once Filles completes my new signature, then it will be replaced.......but i would also like to point out that there is nothing in my signature that goes against the signature and avatar rules.

I personally think Blaze' signature is fine. As for the anime getting annoying, thats a bunch of bull. Some people can't find what they like in human photos.. and whats wrong with Anime? This is, after all, a roleplay site. We should be able to have anime.. and yeah, we are.. but oh well, I'm rambling.. nevermind

Well, I think that your signature is not appropriate at all. And, you say that you've been getting all sorts of complements about it. By who?
