I've been around these parts for almost eight years now...wow! Maybe I should be concerned about that...
Images in signatures...that would be nice, but there are a few reasons why not.
Spammers and shock sites. We've all gone to the thread where some new member says "look, proof of aliens!" or something, and the link turns out to be one to lemon party or some other site. Already this is a problem, but if members were allowed to upload images, it would be even worse...this time, you couldn't even preview the link; it would just smack you in the face.
OK, you say, but there are so many good users who are missing out! Well, yes there are, but think about it. There are 1 million or so users on Bungie.net. Now, most are not active, bu twe can safely assume about 3/4 or so will upload pictures for signatures, avatars, posts, etc....this will slow loading times considerably and clog up the servers, something nobody wants to happen. So, chances are slim that we will ever have custom signatures and avatars.
