Default Why can't we have images in our sigs???

I would love to add some images to my sig, they are small, couldn't you just put a size limit on them, and if you see one to large delet it??
<img src="http://thumbs.webshots.com/thumb0/2/33/51/60323351RnkXgD_th.jpg" alt=" - " /> <img src="http://thumbs.webshots.com/thumb0/2/32/0/60323200GIdToi_th.jpg" alt=" - " /> <img src="http://thumbs.webshots.com/thumb0/2/32/81/60323281mTXJSt_th.jpg" alt=" - " /> That is all i wanted in mine.

Because we are afraid that the members may abuse that priviledge like they do over on Corvetteforum.com , those guys use HUGE pictures and post them every single time they reply in the same thread. Pretty annoying.

We have no way of controlling the file size or dimensional size either, otherwise we would allow that.

but can't you edit a profile?? Every person who had to large of a pic you could delete or maybe it would have to be approved?? I think when someone uses small pics it makes the forum more enjoyable

Like Tony said, if we had a way of controlling it it may be cool. But some of the boards I have seen have guys posting thier sig 10 times on one thread. Gets boring quik IMO. You can always just post an image to your post when you want anyway.

There is no software to controll it and we cannot approve thousands of sigs on an individual basis.

It's horribly abused at Corvetteforum.com and I also don't want us to have the same problem.
