It's very distracting when I'm listening to music, and the bananas are dancing nearly in time. 8O

Oh Justin, what are we going to do with you?

Your new official size graphic is fine, perfectly in keeping with the new rules that the J Dude came up with.

I must confess, the little animated thingies are just annoying and I think you are pushing the limits of the sig rules.

A lot of the things you have done are really good, I like some of the cars you had photchopped. I don't like the narners, but that's just me. I'm certainly not going to lose any sleep over it. In any case, I'm sure you will make something different pretty soon. :D

Agreed. The intention of the sig policy was to make signatures unobtrusive so that people can focus on the content of the post. The dancing bananas do precisely the opposite.

They are the same height and they do not exceed the width. They are so cool! Com'on you guys! :D

Here's a tip for ya, Justin: Don't argue with the guys that run the place. They can make life difficult for you. :wink:

I was going to let this one go, but I can't. Justin, your small sig button is tolerable. The animation is subtle and not too distracting. The bananas, on the other hand, are not cool. They are, in my opinion, stupid and quite distracting. Please consider losing them.

Edit: I fixed the problem myself. I just told Firebird (http://www.mozilla.org/products/firebird/) to block all images from the server the bananas came from. (Right-click image, choose "Block Images from [hostname]")

well one thing for certain, if anyone wants to put a sig it needs to be cleared by jason, other wise it is a waste of time to put anything there if it is so easy to get rid of it.

Some have crazy saying, some have those bananas. I am wondering how many people will complain and they will get rid of stuff.

Since we are a community and a forum, I am just making a comment. I dont dislike anyone, but maybe we need an official rule book that we can all refer to before we start to do anything. Or maybe I missed the book about all this, is there one jason?

This thread (http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=19998) pretty much sums it up nicely. While Justin's graphics technically do not violate the letter of the "law," they do violate the spirit of it. It's implied in Jason's signature policy that a sig is to consist of one 88x31 image, not as many images as you want that just happen to individually be within those dimensions.

Now ya done it! This (http://www.absolutelyric.com/a/view/Liz_Phair/The_Tra_La_La_Song_(one_Banana,_Two_Banana)/) is what's going to be going through my head for the next few weeks. :wink:

We simply haven't implemented the code yet to restrict sigs to a single 88 x 31 image. Until we do, people like Justin will continue to find new ways to irritate the rest of us. Just ignore him - the more attention you give him, the more he "performs". :roll:

What is that supposed to mean Jason? You have a new email message in your inbox...

FYI: The banana's are gone due to popular demand, snide comments, and a general lack of humour.

Since the bananas are now a thing of the past, so too is this thread...
