    no html, soz, check the BB Code index link smewhere on teh edit prfile page, otherwise find somewhere else, because i have no idea off the top of my head, i could think, but that would require brain cells

    Yeah, I was wondering why nobody had any flash sigs around here.

    umm unless they are hosted by GR, they eat up no more bandwidth than a sig, one line of text.

    A sig takes up as much bandwidth as its size. Your sig, for example, is 127kb. That's 127kb gone EVERY TIME someone sees that sig, regardless of where. Most Flash sigs are even bigger.

    Conclusion : Yes, they eat bandwidth like there is no tomorrow. ;)

    but they don't on GR, GR only has to instruct one line of text if I am not mistaken.

    ^ yeah ur right, it only uses the bandwidth of where its hosted, but the reason html isnt enabled is cos ppl can use it in the wrong way if u get me.
