Is it just me . . . .

Or is djomlas new animated signature a little distracting when trying to read a thread that he has posted in?
No offence intended to you DJ.

Not really, personally i think it looks good but i can see how it would be a tad bit distracting if i were reading a long reply below his post.

What I think is more distracting is when someone uses the quote button to reply. I know you use it to highlight a comment you want to follow up, but some people just use it on every post when just replying to the last one. I have never noticed that much use on any other forum.

That is tough to look through on multiple post in a row to read the new comment.

Sorry for the rant, DJ's doesn't bother me. Maybe I'm just lazy, I get to see alot of pics of his car with no effort.

I like how DJ is always changing his signature. Very creative and great photography.

Well, most forums impose a size limit on pictures in signatures... keeps the posts from becoming cluttered with pictures and flashy things.

I've noticed a few here (not dj) that have some rather large photos in their signatures.. .and when they post multiple times, a large portion of the page is taken up by these pictures.

I say K.I.S.S.

Since you're taking signature requests... can you post the Boten Anna video with subtitles?

"ARE YOU READY?!?"

Hi,

IMHO, DJ's photos are good, DJ's car looks great, but the Slideshow is distracting to me.

Btw, DJ, what type Camera are you using?

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

Dj -

Did not mean for you to change on account of my gripe, now I feel bad......


But it just goes to show everyone your true character, where you were willing to change based on one comment instead of saying "Flake off"

Now who is Boten Anna ? I watched the video, like the song even though I could not understand it

I think there's nothing wrong with DJ'S signature it keeps me from falling asleep and by removing it to please some other forum members just shows that this kid has class.

Maybe some old farts on this forum could actually learn something instead of always trying to get the last word and indirectly attack others with their foolish comments
