What ever happened to eloquently comparing your rendevouz with said pleb's mother last night with an unsecured screen-door in the path of a hurricane?

Or just calling people spas?

Mozilla Firebird reports it as 20.98 KB (21488 bytes)
Pop it into PSP/PS/Irfanview and resize it a bit (it'll still be legible) and save as JPEG/GIF/PNG.

export to jpeg in psp will let you control the size of the image, no on seems to have complained about leonotrons 67kb animated sig, but you'd complain about a measly kilobyte over from tba, hate to make you waste 0.25 seconds downloading it:rolleyes:

Get some bloody image compression skills kiddies.
There's no need for any sig image to be over 10Kb in JPEG or PNG, that's still within sig dimension limits, unless you've got lots of meandering tiny text all over, which just looks crap anyways tbh.

If you looked closely, you'd realise it's not my sig - it's a posted image. And I could compress it smaller, but I'm only using it once, and I didn't want to distort the writing at all.
