I'm gonna get sacked! Can we have a policy of no NSFW for sigs and avatars please, as it seriously prevents me opening many threads at work! Ta....and while we are at it NSFW added to thread titles by mods as well please!
Cheers.

It's a fair point bud and I agree NSFW sigs and avatars are not a good things. Oh hang on, mines not the best. DOH!

alternatively disable display of sigs in your account settings :smiley:

Exactly. Nothing to see here, get back to work.

Photo sites are banned by my work so I just disable sigs and avatars as Rhyso has mentioned. :wink: In fact, they're off all the time for me now so I couldn't even tell you what's in whos sig these days.
That wont stop dodgy pics in threads, but most people seem to put NSFW on titles if it's inappropriate these days.
....and as jv says. Get some work done ! :grin:
-
So I can relight my spliff then? :wink: :evil: :grin:
-
all a fuss about nowt then - :grin: gotta love the old foot in mouth situations

Right, i will do this, is this setting set on the server, or in a cookie for each browser.If it's cookie set then that's better as then it's sigs at home and none at work.

All done but it's server side, so set for every browsing session.

Aye, if I want to see sigs and avatars away from work, I have to put it back on.

For web admin's info, it's possible to incorporate stylesheet switching using css/cookies and a drop down selector somewhere on each page - and then you can override the site's <img> tag with no images by using "display:none" in the "worksafe" css mode. this is a fairly pain free way of doing things and guarantees no images ever appear for the end user wherever the stylesheet dictates (not just sigs).
I did this on my car forum, and replaced the main images with an image reading "dictionary discussion" or some other nerdy title. ho ho ho. you can do quick "Christmas themes" and so on, and leave it up to the user if they want to use that particular stylesheet theme.
obviously it's up to you as to whether it's worth investigating this route, the sig disabling seems fairly thorough to me.
