Why change of mind?
These graphic tickers in signatures are a shame on the forum face. Signature is supposed be something short, something telling us about the owner, some bit of wisdom or like that. It is not supposed to be a mirror of your personal profile. It is a forum for goodness sake, not an art gallery.

Moderators
Thank you for limiting signature size.

I would thank you even more if you outlawed usage of graphics but it will never happen, so I gave up on this idea and befriended AdBlock Plus!
But seriously, it was only graphics from a specific site that was an issue. It was those dragon things that some of the moderators and a few others decided to use in their signatures that did slow down MR. I have yet to find any of these tickers to slow down MR. I have yet to find anyone's signature currently that slows down MR.
