huge signatuure pics

Is there a way I can choose to not see boardies' large signature images and animation? Is there some setting that controls this? Thanks

Yaaaay. Thank you! (I never even noticed that nav bar at the top...)

Glad it worked.

I use the app mostly, so I sometimes forget how big they get.

It's the constant rapid motion. I feel like it's going to trigger a stroke.

Funny.

If we see a lot of these, we can post something asking members to not use the big sig files.

I also hate the repetitive animations in siggies. But I like seeing everyone's signatures otherwise so I hate to turn them all off. : (

Oh i totally agree; the large pictures and animations really drive me nuts. But I love seeing what products people are using.

Will someone pls email me some examples that are maybe a bit over the top?

Um...I'm assuming you don't like my picture of poor Seamus, who spent 12 hours strapped to the roof of a car, sick as a dog? Don't worry...I only plan to keep it in my siggy until November. I don't want America to forget how poor Seamus was treated when they're voting.

I absolutely support your siggie of Seamus. It's heartbreaking and indicative of that candidate's non-caring, insensitive character.

I know I'm only referring to the fast-motion gifs and such.

I didn't know there were settings for this, though I have a habit of browsing the site before logging in or sometimes the site logs me off so the settings don't help. I made a post about this earlier but deleted it b/c I didn't think anyone else had the issue.

A particular signature pic aggravates my PCVs (heart condition) with its quick motion. I put the person on ignore but like I said if you're not logged in it that doesn't help. I thought about addressing it personally, but this person has made it clear that she doesn't care about offending people. In fact, she and someone else deliberately posted language that I had said in the Say It thread that I found offensive. I had had nothing to do with these people prior to and my post had nothing to do with them so don't know - it was upsetting. I came close to reporting it actually b/c I felt it was trolling - IDC if they're "popular" here or not. I bring it up now because I doubt this person cares at all about harming someone's health or multiple people's health if it would in some way restrict her freedom.

So, I would definitely be for Gretchen's idea of banning such signatures. I have only seen 1 but it belongs to a very frequent poster. The big ones in general are fine with me, but like I had said before, the internet in general has cut down on those flashy motion ads so I think the same should apply here.
