Any way to turn off this bs  By  wutzthedeal (Read 677 times)

why , just annoying?

Don't think there's any way to disable them

While I could put a code in to disable signatures, unless someone puts in something that is against forum and Proboard's terms of service (TOS) or rules I will not.

While I understand some people may not like GIF's they are not against the rules, when it comes down to it all of out smilies are GIF's also which I put in to replace the default ones which I considered dull and boring.

Also disabling signatures just because of GIF's would take away the ability of people who simply want to put in information in their signature about their scooter which IMO certainly wouldn't be fair.

I would have to agree with OP,
I'm running a netbook, and that GIF banner is at least 25 pics it loads in my netbook's memory.
It takes up space, and uses CPU. I'm already low as is on memory, so I also would wanna 'opt-out' if I could.
I tried blocking the images with an image blocker, but have mixed results.
Right now it's working, so adblock Plus can block the specific image subdirectory, without touching the signatures, nor the rest what's available on the image domain.

It's a good way for you personally not to see the banner, without affecting the rest of the site (it's not really ads, it's just someone else's scoot you'll be blocking anyway).
