Rocangus, your avatar is fine, it's simple short looped animation and being an avatar it's kept to the right away from the text. I at least am not bothered by it at all, just those dragonadopters get on my nerves.

[Nezdragon]

It's a smooth animation, too.  Hardly distracting.

Yeah, I think sillydraco's animations are perfectly fine as there's not a lot of movement, it's smooth, and not flashy.

[Rocangus]

Well, what's done is done. I'll go this way, that is much more compact, in the future. Also, the animation is to the left of the text, and regular, short also.

*pride*

I can understand that, little friend.

Now that I see that people are getting pissed, I think I shall change my signature totally right now. You know, I don't wanna have my posts ignored just because of my signature. I hope my little avatar can stay though...

I can't speak for everyone, but I'm not pissed at large animated sig lines.  I just find them distracting, is all, and a bit overwhelming.  I don't think I've ever ignored a post because of that; I just found it harder to read.

Don't worry about it, Rocangus.

I have been thinking of it myself, to be honest, a bit. Actually, I think this one fits me better than my last one, which is a plus as well.

You'll probably remeber I used to have the dragonadopter images in my sig. I wouldn't mind having one, but the site pressures you into getting clicks for up to five dragons. I quit because it takes too much time, and switched my signature to a few small, static adoptables. Are those okay?

[Kiantis]

I generally ignore signatures, avatars and everything, and jump to the content.
Though, i've also learned that having an image representation instead of a name tends to help mind linking the person to the posts he makes.
I've seen that sometimes this can also be replaced using a favorite quote.

But this just because i generally don't remember names so easily.

So i guess it's just a problem of size.

About animations... i'm an old school web surfer and i dislike somewhat things like animations, musics etc on sites.
... or epilepsy-making colors for that matter. It's like the web wants so much attention, that generally makes it an empty shell.

[Rocangus]

Are those okay?

I think so, although they take up some space when they have grown up. But not as much as the DA dragons though. I think I'll pass the smaller ones I've got anyways.

I truly believe a community can be managed very effectively without writing any rules down.

That is some interesting insight you have there, Selroth. I've got to remember that if CGB is ever finished.
