::::::In general, there are both aestetic and technical considerations. I know less than nothing about the state of this site's servers, but many wiki's simply hate having >1 image sigs. They create lots o lag. However, there is a workaround to this, namely, screenshotting your sig, and uploading its pictures, and making it your sig. This makes 1 image containing all the images you had(i do that on some wikis with policy). However, aestetic considerations are just as important. Tesh, for instance, has legally sized images(by most wiki standards), but far too many of them. I don't know of a policy that restricts invasive colors, but tesh's does push the limit on that. Also, one thing many wikis have a problem with is using their images to make a sig. The reason being, you end up accidentally clicking on say, tesh's polygon(w/e the hell pokémon that is), and suddenly, you havent found tesh, but instead found the image.[[User:Dark0805|<font color="Black">'''Dark0805'''</font>]] <small>([[User talk:Dark0805|''<font color="Pink">talk</font>'']]|[[Special:Contributions/Dark0805|''<font color="Blue">contribs</font>'']])</small> 19:20, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

::::::::See the difference? Long lines of wiki code devoted to nothing but images the size of a building.[[User:Dark0805|<font color="Black">'''Dark0805'''</font>]] <small>([[User talk:Dark0805|''<font color="Pink">talk</font>'']]|[[Special:Contributions/Dark0805|''<font color="Blue">contribs</font>'']])</small> 19:39, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
