I'd think there should be an outright ban on images in signatures.

I'm all for hard technical limits, but I hope images don't go away entirely. While mostly used for flashy stuff and often abused, images can be a great way to display hard info as well. I'd love to recast my reading list into a live image -- much easier to manage the list that way, far more info can be shared in a more readable and less crowded way than how I share it now.

(several minutes later) Halfway through this post, I've started doing just that using a blog-like tool to make an RSS feed out of my reading list and feedburner to organize it into a fairly unobtrusive image. I feel your pain, but I hope you don't persuade mobileread. I think this will make my sig less annoying.
