Well, there are some forums that allow people to put images in their signatures up to 600 px high plus bloat stuffs at the profile section under the usernames. The funny thing is that some of them only post few words plus spamming. It made the page long enough but few wording. Wasting bandwidth.

oh yeah lor. just 1 liner but the siggy + avatar details already longer than that.
in LYN it's quite often like that too, especially when someone posted like 5 - 10 images and the next person quoted the 5 - 10 pictures and posted a 1 liner.

many of us are wasting bandwith already. I have to adjust mah sig so many time because goldfries nuked it even tho I always thought it complies with the rule. My current one IMO is just barely made it through the sig rule.
The one that you suggestd is Not needed really except to elongate e-penis, and you can do much better design if you're creative enough with ur sig. who wants to see the same thing from all users really?
hehe. 2 main conditions
1. does not exceed 15 lines of size 1 text
2. does not exeed 70kb

anyway lotsa images doesn't waste LYN bandwidth. it wastes our own bandwidth to the Internet. from LYN to our machine it's just a bunch of HTML.
imagine some sites actually have people loading 100kb++ sized siggies, usually a scene from anime, SPARTA (300) parody or whatever else.

nuts. I've seen 100kb++ avatars too. nutso.
the thing is that in the US they're not using ADSL!

AFAIK in South Korea they have 100mbps Internet connection.
