1. They're a bit big.
I find sig line graphics that big get in the way on threads.

10. I like "she's got the blues" too...
I like the pulsating script, and the b/w image is crisp.

Just my nickel's worth! :toast:

13. My 2 Cents...
...# 1, because a lot of the younger folks here may not recognise the late, great Billie. Either would be good!

15. Take the lower one, cut it so you only have the head, then shrink it
Edited on Sat Feb-21-04 09:43 AM by Kamika
Should be a great sig pic after that.

Now they are both too big, and flashy stuff in sig lines is only annoying

16. they are way too big
Edited on Sat Feb-21-04 11:14 AM by ZombyWoof
But I applaud you for having better taste in musicians than you do candidates. ;-) So I will welcome Billie Holiday to your sig line.

(But truly, large pics in sig lines, no matter how cool, are like billboards and just get obnoxious as one surfs down a thread.)

On Edit: I even think mine is too big, but I was overwhelmed by the utter coolness of it.

19. The first one

So everyone who doesn't know who Lady Day is can go find out!

(But it needs to be much smaller - drives those of us on dial-up crazy!)

P.S. I know you're much younger than I - what got you on to Billie?

21. I can make them much smaller....how's this one?


What got me onto Billie Holiday was the first time I heard her song, "Strange Fruit" for an African-American studies class which got me really curious so I decided to buy an entire album and from there, I was hooked.

25. That's better

Interesting journey to Billie Holiday - I first became very interested in jazz after taking an African-American Studies class back in college - in the wonderful year of 19<inaudible> :)

Have you ever listened to Dinah Washington, perchance? Which then leads to Ella, and Sassy, and Carmen, and who knows where...

30. Do you put a picture in your sig line the same as you post one?
If not, will someone tell me how to do it?
