You mean Ready is innovating his sigs by breaching the Forum AUP? Because I can do that, but I choose to abide by these rules. And according to Cucumba, Forum Staff are not above the rules.
So why can Ready have several, AUP-breaching signatures?
As for my signature, if you don't like it, fine. But do you
really think it's bad because it's a
rectangle? How many forums do you go to, if I may ask? I'm willing to bet over 90% of all the signatures you've seen were this same shape. But that doesn't mean they're bad, does it?
As for the same effects, what? I'm gonna show you several of my latest signatures, you tell me how they look similar okay?
Oh, and Phobius. Your avatar is too big. 10 kb is the maximum filesize, yours is almost twice that. Maybe you could resize it or decrease its quality to abide by the Forum AUP?
