To all,
Why the gigantic odd signatures that appear here?
Jest askin'

I've been trying to find out how to ban/limit images on a SERIOUS G+ page of mine .........
(I don't even like cute animals.)
Actually, I don't even like humourless people - actually most people........

I'm going to use Teh on my new world-enlightening project and I would like to find a way of limiting the size of graphics of any kind on it.

What tea was that? I've been wondering recently what the tea with the highest caffeine content is.

Don't even ask me.... I've been on the wagon for  decades and only drink "pretend" coffee now :-<
But any upmarket Chinese Restaurateur can introduce you to the many special teas....

I suppose you might be talking about mine. Mine comes from the days of PC Mag/Extreme Tech. There was a forum member (Sethness) there who made signatures for folks, often free-hand artistic drawrings. What you see is an iteration of that because unfortunately Seth stopped making sigs - or perhaps he just didn't like me.  :-P We were limited to the height and weight of the image; this style/size was considered the largest one could go and be within acceptable limits. It isn't graphics intensive and loads quickly even on a dialup connection.

You can not allow or disallow signatures of you want or just allow text signatures. Sounds a bit boring to me, but they aren't my monkees, not my circus. Signatures are fairly common within a forum as are avatars. Apparently you have no problem with pixelated emoticons, something I find a bit odd, but...

Welcome. Forget the tea, it's almost beer o'clock. (beer)

Hola! You can turn signatures off in your "My Controls" area.

I actually suspect he's not reappeared due to the lack of biscuit offers.

Every time I see that I think of dog food.  That's what we call dog treats over here.  Maybe he thought you wanted him to eat pig ears and bark!

You've got the wrong place. We're mostly quail and partridge here.

I thought you thought biscuits were those wheel like things you had with gravy?

We have a similar thing to you re. the dog treats. We call them dog biscuits. I know it's a complex idea, but doesn't half help to differentiate things by putting the name of the thing the thing belongs to before it.

Helmets are ubiquitous, but a policeman's helmet becomes specific.

Everyone has fingernails, but Dave's fingernails belong to him.

Flatulence abounds, but PB's farts are a personal thing.

Did you attain Perfect Gentleman status in '83, or did you quickly don the helmet?

Must have been a noisy lift.

Thanks. Tell Ken to stop trying to pick and/or bite them.

Speaking of biting, I'm not really sure why, but I'm attempting to grow my finger nails a bit. It's a bit of a test of will power. I usually bite my nails but HAVE DECIDED NOT TO. Typing is becoming something of a pain, as I keep hitting the end of the nail on the keys which is causing a bend and creating a pulling sensation in the middle of the nail over my finger. I suspect they'll last til the weekend where I'll get bored and bite them all off.

They are useful for scratching, opening ring pull cans and finding the end of sellotape, however.
