What a lot of people are trying to do in their signature pics is more about hijacking other users' attention and less about being clever or funny. There are plenty of other places for users to express themselves on Newgrounds, especially after the redesign goes through -- and without the expense of those who just want to read the forums without being distracted.

no, I don't mean just the sig. I mean't a WHOLE post. The picture liljim posted doesn't really solve the problem of "will this look good in the new layout?" for those that haven't seen the new design.
I don't want to redesign my sig. So I just wouldn't have one.
Personaly I don't even make my own sigs, I have other people do it for me because I suck at photoshop and all that other stuff. I really wouldn't mind having to give up somthing so simple as a sig to make way for changes on newgrounds. Animation for some sigs are classic thou, if you got rid of that I think it would upset a lot of users. I have faith in what you will do will turn out just fine but some people are going to be really upset with the loss of their animated buddies :(.

I do.
I'm being serious. Just don't make it too bright.
Come join music competitions on Chips Compo and hang on our Discord!
Good artists copy. Great artists get banned from the Audio Portal.
Other than removing Gif.'s the rule is fine. Don't remove gif.'s, just make a rule saying no flashy sigs.
Let us wallow in the filth of the void clinging to one another.

But still, yeah, I would like them to be taller. 500x75 would actually be pretty good, I don't think it's that bad, and it gves you more space for creativity :P
Yup.. yup it's coming to me.. this image of a one word post and a huge sig after it...
Oh.. it faded.. Thank god!
Creativity is good, but we have an art forum now.. and a flash portal.. and an audio portal..
Yeah, I kinda want a pink layout also. PINK RULES. WHO ELSE THINK PINK RULES?
FUCK YEAH!

Just because there are borders on the example I posted, does not necessarily mean that there will be borders in the finished stuff. Everything is still being tweaked.
I understand that it's not the final idea, it was just the problem I had with the sample. :p
I agree with you about people bitching. People like Mad-Cow need to be a little more optimistic.
If bandwith is an issue with keeping animation on bigger sigs, then for all means take them out.Bandwidth is not an issue, nor is storage space. This is purely for aesthetical reasons.
If it's only for aesthetical reasons then I don't think anyone would agree with taking animation out,
In a site about flash animation you would think that they would allow animated sigs. :pWell, that's a point that's been disputed in our own discussion, by the fact that if you're a flash author, you put your flash in the portal. If you're on the bbs, you're there primarily for the discussion, not all the fancy user images.
Most famous flash authors don't come to the BBS though. The ones that do are regulars. (Like luis, stamper, etc) With the new user pages thing it would be the same way looking at it from that view.
Another problem that faces with this is that people are going to have to be able to post large images if the sigs are big like in liljim's example.Don't see any problem with upping the max width and height of the images in the forums. The only reason we don't currently do this is that the images at 595 pixels would break the current design.
Awesome.
Third party shouldn't matter.It's a third party (i.e. not staff member), who does go to the bbs.
Wow. :o
Who's the third party member among us?!

I'm your average Afro-American fetus. For example: I enjoy basketball, I'm rather good when I play too, but I'm much too busy scratching my horrific cracked skin these days.
Maybe you could put in a signature portal, like the flash portal, where users vote if the sig is allowed to stay.

Everyone's just asking for it. You might as well do it and just leave it like that for a few months, just for the fuck of it!
And as for sigs Tom. Screw it, they don't need animation.
It's pronounced Rag-el you fools!
