I don't care as much about size, per se. Today if you want to conserve bandwidth, block file sharing. Dial-up is faster than it used to be, and many are switching to high speed connections. I care about readability and context. Plus, taking the time to trim gives an extra half-second for the brain to engage. I've limited myself to the traditional maximum of 4 lines for years now. I got tired of it. Conditions have changed. My sig is at the bottom, so it doesn't reduce readability. I've already said I don't care much about size. And I try to change it semi-regularly so it doesn't get boring. But to keep you happy, I've chosen a 3 line sig to respond with. ;-) BTW, you forgot to trim. :-P -- Stuart Jansen <[EMAIL PROTECTED], AIM:StuartMJansen> Who is John Galt?
