How to make offensive signature pictures go away
Are you one of the brave ones? You have only a couple or maybe no one on your ignore list. Just the same, there are one or two members who have signature pics that drive you to distraction. Want to know a simple, free way to make those sig pics disappear?

Get Firefox > http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/

Once you have it installed and running, simply put your cursor over the icky pic and right-click > choose the "Block Images From" option.

Poof. No more sig pic!

2. I have a different problem
I would like to add an Obama icon to my signature (maybe an O'bama) but can't figure out how to do it, and still stay within the 20K size limit. Anyone know?

4. Is the image large in size?
Meaning actual space? Sometimes resizing it helps. Here is a free program that can resize images for you:

5. True
That is a DU option. I post this because I like sig files and don't want to shut all of them off. :)
