    well i think it would be more proper to call them tags. as sig is signature space and tag would be the small graphics in sigs.

    I say just call them what you want, as there is no "Official" term, and some people seem to think that saying "Tag" is cool...

    yes, it makes a difference. On the net, when you search for a sig tutorial, more results appear than when you are searching for a tag tutorial. Maybe is because sig is more commonly used.
