Color in sigs
I think we need a restriction on color use and font size in sigs. For example, Quake1028 has one obnoxious friggin signature right now that is polluting the sports forum and giving me a headache. Do we really need 5 colors and giant fonts allowed? It's just so garish and annoying. We have the five line limit, can't we make a 2 color limit and fix the font size of sigs too? (not too mention those godforesaken dancing bananas...why are they allowed if images aren't?)
one of the nicest things about this forum is the lack of clutter and no avatars....lets keep it that way.

A point I completely agree with.

I guess it's possible that what I was trying to say is that I'm as sensitive to sigs in general as some people seem to be about obnoxiously-colored ones. I suppose I could have tried to use actual words to get this point across.
