another opinion.

Im not bothered by half naked men or half naked woman in a sig honestly i could care less i barley notice them and giggle at at the funy ones. But if it means this much of an offense then ican live without the,

Think of signatures being t-shirts; would you really want some kid to see a half-naked girl scrawled across your back? I think it'd be rather awkward. tongue.gif

A simple solution could come from this. If we put the sigs on photobucket, you can just image block particular albums from particular people. So, say you don't wanna see Robbie's sig, you can just image block anything that comes from HIS photobucket album. This way, anyone that still wants to see it can, and also, anyone who doesn't/can't, will not be forced against their will to see it.

I personally agree with the skin thing... Everyone has it... Unfortunately, for say, Wayne's case, his bosses or peers might night think the same, even if he did. Which is why, you could always use the photobucket block if need be. I think it's a better way than censoring everyone.

The internet, tis a weird place. Normal rules of life don't apply.

But yes, its mostly about the image of the clan. If everyone has semi-exposed bodies of the female variety in their sigs, you're going to attract horny testorone-brimmed kids, which isn't really the ideal market, so to speak.
