    I'm a little bored after an all-night gaming session so I decided to post up this, basically it's the sig's I had before Cloud went on his little rampage ;) Feel free to post up any sig's that you have ever had, I'll be expecting pic's of 15k or less :p Here's most of mine :

    bushgorilla.jpg

    This one was a little big, so it was removed ( by me ) almost immediately.

    I got bored of this one after about an hour.

    This particular one had a tricolour in the back-ground which made the whole thing work, alas it to was far too big.

    One of the crappest I've ever seen, although I had it for about 2 months, I just could'nt have been arsed changing it.

    I probably had this one for the longest, once again I got bored of it though.

    What I have now and intend to keep.

    Post up any of your old sig's and let us remember the little chap's in peace.

    At one point I had this in my bloody sig...

    realised it was a tad too big...


    A NIGHTMARE




    G. K. CHESTERTON




    To Edmund Clerihew Bentley

    A cloud was on the mind of men, and wailing went the weather,
    Yea, a sick cloud upon the soul when we were boys together.
    Science announced nonentity and art admired decay;
    The world was old and ended: but you and I were gay;
    Round us in antic order their crippled vices came--
    Lust that had lost its laughter, fear that had lost its shame.
    Like the white lock of Whistler, that lit our aimless gloom,
    Men showed their own white feather as proudly as a plume.
    Life was a fly that faded, and death a drone that stung;
    The world was very old indeed when you and I were young.
    They twisted even decent sin to shapes not to be named:
    Men were ashamed of honour; but we were not ashamed.
    Weak if we were and foolish, not thus we failed, not thus;
    When that black Baal blocked the heavens he had no hymns from us
    Children we were--our forts of sand were even as weak as eve,
    High as they went we piled them up to break that bitter sea.
    Fools as we were in motley, all jangling and absurd,
    When all church bells were silent our cap and beds were heard.

    Not all unhelped we held the fort, our tiny flags unfurled;
    Some giants laboured in that cloud to lift it from the world.
    I find again the book we found, I feel the hour that flings
    Far out of fish-shaped Paumanok some cry of cleaner things;
    And the Green Carnation withered, as in forest fires that pass,
    Roared in the wind of all the world ten million leaves of grass;
    Or sane and sweet and sudden as a bird sings in the rain--
    Truth out of Tusitala spoke and pleasure out of pain.
    Yea, cool and clear and sudden as a bird sings in the grey,
    Dunedin to Samoa spoke, and darkness unto day.
    But we were young; we lived to see God break their bitter charms.
    God and the good Republic come riding back in arms:
    We have seen the City of Mansoul, even as it rocked, relieved--
    Blessed are they who did not see, but being blind, believed.

    This is a tale of those old fears, even of those emptied hells,
    And none but you shall understand the true thing that it tells--
    Of what colossal gods of shame could cow men and yet crash,
    Of what huge devils hid the stars, yet fell at a pistol flash.
    The doubts that were so plain to chase, so dreadful to withstand--
    Oh, who shall understand but you; yea, who shall understand?
    The doubts that drove us through the night as we two talked amain,
    And day had broken on the streets e'er it broke upon the brain.
    Between us, by the peace of God, such truth can now be told;
    Yea, there is strength in striking root and good in growing old.
    We have found common things at last and marriage and a creed,
    And I may safely write it now, and you may safely read.

    G. K. C.

    I change my sig more often than I change my underpants....


    The earliest I can remember is from Terry Pratchet :
    Colon : "You see, miss...."
    Angua : "Lance-Constable."
    Colon : "I'm sorry?"
    Angua :"Lance-Constable. Carrot says we don't have any sex while on duty."
    To the background of Nobby's frantic coughing....


    Then I had another before moving onto Pythagoras :
    "Eating beans is a crime equivalent to eating the heads of one's parents"

    This isn't actually a fart joke. The ancient Greeks believed that the knarled, twisted roots of the beans were the souls of the evil dead trying to escape from the underworld. It just goes to show : You can be a famous philosopher and still be a ****ing idiot.

    I tried this one about a weird dream I had but it never actually appeared :
    Last night I dreamed I robbed a bank - it was in the basement of 2fort. Naturally I excited via the elevator so I wouldn't get caught.

    This one is being replaced tonight :
    80% of all 456M owners will choose an automatic gearbox. The world is sick and wrong.

    What kind of idiot spends over €200,000 on a car that you can't even drive properly?

    I've had many sigs in my time too, on this board and on others.
    "If there's one thing I hate, it's people." Was mine for a long time here, it's a quote from an interview with a comic artist.
    "Your fúck is shít dickass." Which is a quote from a webcomic called sexy losers.
    "YOU SPOONY BARD!!!" was my sig a while ago on a different site.
    I've also had a large assortment of anime quotes, like "Lez go." and "Who is this girly piece of ass?!?"
    I also had this pic, before the restrictions. It's my avatar over on M2A. Capcom_-_War_Machine.jpg

    I've changed my sig once since I signed up on Boards, and that was to add the righteous shield and title of the Knights Of Comeonbanus!

    Other than that, I just think it suits me.
