Hey everyone, I am studying Graphical design in Breda, The Netherlands. Now I have to do an article about fascinations.
The subject I have chosen is Forum signatures, this because I am fascinated by the meanings of them and the reason why a person would take that particular line/quote or picture(‘s) to use as a sig.
Now if you want, you may post an explanation why you have chosen that particular signature, and what elements of the signature are personal related to you. Also if you use an other signature on an other forum pleas explain a bit why.
If you have any questions feel free to ask,
I hope you guy’s can help me out.
Thanks!!

I think mine's pretty self-explanatory, being one of the few wide format guys here, I gotta keep the newbs from getting confused.
I'd be more interested in Avatars. A picture is worth more than a 1000 words. Is mine yawning, laughing, crying, hungry for blood...? LOL.

I think PD's avatar is about to suck the soul out of the next client who pisses him off. That's how ive always viewed it!

It's yawning when I read most of your post, laughing at some of them, crying when you relize PD is right, and hungry for blood when newbs take on large format jobs. LOL, my signature is to keep people from taking me too seriously, it has worked well for the most part.

um... I have lots of cats, and my sig is something you learn quickly when you are outnumbered. :p
Ironically, D-Frag, that's how I viewed PD's avatar, too! :D
I saw this movie on friday - it's awesome. Go see it.

I love the movie Office Space. And I like solving problems. It's a win win sig.

I had a bunch of these this past weekend. It's a coping mechanism of sorts.

Some of my favorites from the past:
If Barbie's so popular, how come you have to buy her friends?
If Progress means 'to move forward', what does Congress mean?
You'll have to pry the one-button mouse out of my cold, dead fingers.
I love children, but I don't think I can eat a whole one (from our own Kool)
Dear family, your children were delicious.
God tells me how the music should sound, but you stand in the way
-some composer said this to the trumpet player
I don't think they mean anything for the most part.

I drew that little guy far and away before Dementors were even conceived...
Someday maybe I'll post the original sketch...
:D
I put my signature out there because it is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
i can't remember what mine is so i'll have to post to see it.
oh yeah thats right. It's out of Futurama, Anthology of interest - when Bender becomes human.

Pretty cool,
I like all the catchy lines, and the explanations with them.
Some of these signatures I would like to use in my presentation, is that okay with you? if so pleas let me know.
But does any of you own a Picture as a signature? (or is that against regulations?) like with screenshot of your favourite game or character? And does your nickname have a meaning?
However,
Thanks for all the reply’s so far.
