What are some signatures and avatars by members of this forum you dislike? What do you not like about them? Its interesting to see what other people think of other people's avatars and signature to appreciate their insight regarding pics and quotes that appear in memeber's signatures.You can also share with what signatures and avatars you do like even thought the thread asks the contrary.

Care, this could become contentious. Constructive criticism only please. Why so negative Asyte2c00, better to accentuate the positive. |

I thought it would be interesting to read members' thoughts regarding fellow members' signatures and avatars. To title the post "Signatures and Avatars You Dislike" would naturally compell more people to read this post as opposed ti titling the post "Signatures and Avatars YOu DO Like." Its a matter of phrasing. Moreover, isnt there a good to every bad? What one person dislikes another person may like, the chief purpose of any debate. |

BF!!! I'm getting visions that if I described yor you here,would lose me my Admin Status in an instant.
