I don't think it can be turned on on this forum.
I think it's off to save bandwidth.

Hmmmm, maybe that could be an extra paying member benefit? I would sign up for that!

gotta understand, this board is very popular. To let people have sig images, that would eat a lot of bandwith. Especially with as much as some of these threads are opened/read. every time someone would open a thread, every sig image would have to be rendered. that could means hundreds/thousands times a day for EACH open thread, potentially.

thats a lot!! imagine if only half of the registered members had images, in only half the threads, in a quarter of the posts. :p

I'm glad they are disabled, I find them annoying when browsing other forums with them.

i kinda agree there. some sites where they dont regulate the sigs, you have to scroll a page or more to get to the next post LOL.

My personal thank you to RC staff for not allowing it. My connection's slow enough already :(
