Personally, before I do something, I ask myself how things would turn out if everyone did the same. If I like the outcome, and I believe that others may not object, then I do it. You either prefer that everyone fits many large photos in their sigs, or you don't. If you do, then we should really discuss how clarity and brevity would suffer if everyone had photo albums in their sigs. If you don't, it's a bit selfish to be allowing yourself something that you'd prefer others didn't do.

I second the motion to limt them, if you want three, just make them skinnier so it all fits on one line at least 2 inches high. I just hope we dont get retaliation and someone makes a 10 picture sig now, lol.

I third the motion. I like the pictures, because I can immediately identify the author, but any more than one is, well, more important to the poster than the reader.

01slowbox's pic is about the size I'm talking about. Very tasteful. Just scroll through this thread and my point is clear. Even with the "adjusted" pics the thread looks like a neverending "show and tell" with the same few cars appearing over and over again.

I'm no expert but there's a basic rule in marketing that warns against shoving a product down the public's throat. It's counterproductive and the recepients start to build a dislike to what's being forcefed to them. In our case, what may have been a great pic of a great Box, when included in the sig in all its size and glory (to be seen dosens of times a day) will turn into something banal and boring with time. Medicine is good, but take too much of it and it turns into poison.
