Yeah, Sigs and Avatars can REALLY reflect what you personality can possibly be. Too bad my avatar is bland and I don't even HAVE a sig :O I must have a deadpan personality

I'm not a big fan of having pictures in signatures, they take up too much space.
Avatar: I think Bender from Futurama is underated (much like the show itself) Signature: I like to inform y'all of famous Bender quotes. "I'm a CB-er...GET ME OUT OF HERE!" was huge the first and third times, so I like to have a huge countdown to the next one, although some people tend to try and break the countdown by making one when they damn well please.  .

i dont think it is important but then in way it is individualizing ur self so that other can differentiate you out of the general population. bleh. something like that

Uhh .. My avatar is where im from and what i rep to the fullest (:
My sig is just me. Occasioanlly a few of my own raps,flos,written word or lyrics from a song i like at that current moment and time. I guess my av and sig would present me as a Bay Area female with a taste for music ? o_o |

QUOTE Well I only hope it isn't THAT important. I don't want everyone thinking im a chick. - Solipsist i thought u were a girl... glad that u covered that  QUOTE(fishcake-y @ Dec 29 2005, 3:25 PM) [size=1]Gender sign.... I switched mine because the pink annoyed me. [size]  i thought u were a girl at first cuz of ur avatar and then i saw the sign and thought u were a guy and then i just gave up :P anyway, my avatar is a letter and my sig is Yunho... so that shows ppl im Korean... or asian anyway. and yeah, i think it matters. cuz some of these avatars are really violent to me and sickening and i try as mucj as possible to get out of those ppl's ways.... thats just one example of y it matters. :P

It's pretty important to me!
Here's a secret of mine, I recognize posters by their avators. =X So actually two people can trick me by having similar avators =] I rarely check the names unless I don't recognize the avator. |

Yeah. I'm pretty much hoping that people won't judge me by my avatar. I'd much rather be judged by my signature.
 Quite frankly, my avatar is pretty odd. I have to get a new one.

QUOTE(Azarel @ Dec 30 2005, 1:31 AM) I don't really like the idea that I'm remembered not for my actions but by just a jumble of text and images that is attatched to all of my posts. That may be just me, but it explains why I've done away with my avatar and sig; I only use my sig to link my writing, occasionally. i miss your old avatar... the one withthe girl... i thought it was pretty. anyway... i only really think of avatars as a way of seeing who ha sposted, in th esame way as reading the user names... some to me are recognizable, others less so. |

My sig's pretty old. My avatar is even olderrrrrrr. I guess I realized the importance of these two (not really important but you get what I mean) cuz...hah...my sig catches attention. And my avatar just tells people my name.
P.S.- I'm too lazy to put my gender sign :P. |

I recognize the person who's posting by their av and sig first, or the font they use if they do use a different one. So, I guess it's somewhat important and I do get confused when people change theirs on a daily basis..but whatever =]

I think that av/sig also shows your graphic skills. I guess mine are pretty lame, but I just never tried. The one I'm using was one I found a long time ago while surfing. Thus the av/sig shows that I'm lazy as a person and as a designer.

So you can easily find someone's post or recognize them without seeing reading their name.
