    I see daily many people asking for advice or help on the forum.But dont have any information displayed in there signature regarding there current system spec or hardware .For the time it takes to put the information in your signature its really worthwhile and helpful for others here & you will find your questions answered faster or will pointed in the right direction with your issues. ;)

    I think I recall reading from a Moderator's post that Sig's are too large but they haven't been enforcing the size of everyone's Sig. Seems like if you do put this information in, soon the Mods will require you to remove/reduce the sig and then it will be useless.

    As far as I remember, they removed couple of sigs that had giant pictures. If you need to put a lot of text, you can make the text size smaller by clicking on the sizes and choosing "1".
