watto,
sorry to be a hard ass but your avatar and pot sig was giving me ceasures (spell check can't find right word).

well ill take this as a great chance to say that your sig and avatar gives me the sh*ts with the flashing red stars and glowing name

and yes i agree that watto should not have that in his sig but you are noone to state the rules unless you abide by them yourself

mine isn't as fast and bright to the extent of annoyance. And if you ask me, its more soothing than repetitive/annoying.
Your's is the only complaint I've gotten on my avatar ever since I put it up (about 5 months).

But w/e....I'm thinking about changing it anyway...

If you want to know for future, it's spelt seizures.

I have to agree with this - as I've already used Firefox's ad block (ok, why if I do that as one word does it get censored by the forum?) attachment to remove them. There are rather few animated avatars I don't block to be honest - STHORNE's current one is an exception.

Same goes for images in sigs - I'll look at them the once, then I'll get Firefox to take them out to avoid cluttering the forum layout, and slowing the page loading.
Actually, I think that sig might be too large on the pixel dimensions too.
Does that thing kinda look like a big cat to you?

Wait, so you block my avatar? Cause the way you worded it, it sounds like a double negative..

No, yours I don't block. There was indeed a double negative.
My sig?
Nah, Watto's pot sig - I've just gone and looked, and there's a 90 pixel limit on the height. At 134 pixels tall, Watto's is outside the limits.

It's not so much the signature, rather the problem is the flashy Scarface avatar.

Don't you mean 'ours' :lol: I've had more input into that gun of yours than you yourself... so it should be perfect then :P
Haha, that is true but it is still mine but i have to thank you so much for all the help since it did go through many different design stages but its all good now and cant wait to come to perth to get all the stuff i need to get this one finished.

Should be a good one either way.

EDIT: i dont know why you guys turnign this topic about Watto new piston gun into this big disscusion about his wicked Scarface avatar and yes i know the rules, but come on its the coolest avatar on here to me personally so if someone who is known to have seizures caused by some fast flashing images they would always be awhere of what he or she is looking at, But it is still good that it is in the rules to stop it from happening be acciedent. But come on is just a little avatar of scarface killing some pissed off drugys)lol had to put that in there).

so to me i dont care about avatars and what not and like Ragnarok said you can just block them through Firefox.

but now my rant is over so go about you reading.
