I also keep signatures and avatars turned off--both for bandwidth/speed and because my wife gives me displeased looks if I'm browsing what appears to be pages of scantily clad women.

I must be the only one, but I recognize a poster by their sig and/or avatar. I have associated some names but I always know the sig or avatar. I don't know if I could handle having them turned off. Nope, you're definitely not the only one...

I'm not too fond of signatures or generic models but do like seeing sexy gifs.

I'm the same way. I've never been good at remembering names, so the sigs and avatars help me keep track of who everyone is. Yeah, me too.

I see as unintentional advertisement for the girl their showing off. That's how I discovered the model Christine Mendoza and the kpop group Girls Generation.
I don't mind as long as it's not a gigantic close up of a woman's ass. I remember how awkward that was while using the library's computer for internet. And I'll just try to forgot the horrors of Max-fat chick thriller's sigs.

I could definitely do without the guy who has the creepy cut out heads of girls, especially as he picks totally fug chicks. Fully support Melanie Iglesias, Kaitlyn and Layla though.

I think the idea is that signatures exist for someone to put whatever they want there. If you think it's there to impress other people with your hobbies/interests, I can see why you would be disappointed or confused by their choice of photo. I kinda do think that's why they're there. What do you think the reason is? Since when do sigs have to mean something or have reason behind them? As often as not they're just pics that the poster likes.

As often as not they're just pics that the poster likes. It seems to me that people normally use them to share something about themselves, like an opinion, an interest, sometimes a link to something they're involved in. I don't think people are choosing them at random. Just to be clear though, even though I said what I said and meant it, this is not a big deal to me and to the best of my recollection I have never formed a negative opinion of a poster here based on a picture they've put in their sig. Obviously I had a couple of thoughts on the subject or I wouldn't have commented at all, but it's not a conversation I can see myself personally bringing up.

People like anime, so they put anime in their Sig - Nice! People like women, so they put women in their Sig - Oh my god, you don't have to prove you're not gay you uninteresting man you. Wait, what if the combination of the two is used? For amusement, I checked the old photobucket account I use for sigs and images. Pretty much all of them were more or less anime babes, and a few traps here and there. Come to think of it, maybe I should have one again. Also, for the record, I don't put women (anime) in my sigs to show my heterosexuality... I put them in 'cause I love fanservice! That's not all I'm interested in, but eh.

I'll admit it. I'm happy with it. I've pm'd quite a few posters asking who was in their avatar/sig. If I'm at work I might turn the avatar/sigs off though.

Since I have to make sure rules are being followed, I have to look at everyone's dirty filthy sigs daily.
