I've seen a few members with an image in their signatures. Does that mean we can have images in our signatures, even though the rules state we can't?

Well, can we? I wouldn't mind an image in mine.

Obviously you can.

I would suspect that you may not.


The effects of doing so are undetermined - which always means the worst.

I've noticed that people use BBCode/HTML in their sigs as well. Isn't that coding?

EDIT: I changed the topic name.

I don't think so. I think that was a protection against active scripts, not that any should be able to run on top of the BBS software. Wouldn't be certain though.
