Personally, I don't like the signatures that are editted poorly like this:

Or have distasteful gifs of people sucking on phallic objects.
Or are those anime stats bar graphs. Those look tacky.

As for sigs I like, I'm a fan of watercolour/scenery signatures, either of a specific series or just random scenery that matches the avatar. I like funny/ironic sigs as well that make me laugh.

What about you guys?

Discuss and share sigs.

As long as it is good edited and fine looking,I have no issues.

Though I like signatures with striking colours the most

All MAL signatures are shit, including mine.
Seriously though, who is that one user that has an invisible signature? I always accidentally click it when I'm quick scrolling through a long thread and it takes me to their profile

Oh right, you made it.......... I mean I absolutely love it, it's the best thing ever, if I could I'd print it out and hang it on my wall so that I can look at it and remember the amazing graphical talents of lovely Mayuka.

I was originally going to just crop the signature into an avatar, but I decided that I wanted to use a cute gif of the same character instead.

I like simple and clean designs in general. If the color or theme of the signature matches the avatar, that's a plus.

The kind like Mischievous has are ones I tend to like. Where the image in the signature and avatar are two parts of the same image. It's a style that I'd never seen before using these forums.

I don't like the ones where the image is way too stretched out. I guess really poorly edited ones are also a bother to the eye.

Ones that make me laugh or go "wtf", but those are few and far between. The only signature I dislike would have to be gifs.

I like signatures that have some time spend into them, the ones with fun quotes are good too.
I don't like those with white background, that could be easily rendered

Well, it's better than what I had (don't judge me plz). I have a number of mediocre matching avatars and sigs stored from back in the day, but I'm lazy. I used to change sigs and avatars all the time.


To answer the question, I couldn't say what makes me like or dislike a sig. I like detailed art, but I can also like it simple. I like funny, but I can also like it melancholic. I really like high-contrast stuff.
It's easier to talk about what I don't like. Such as the sig you posted, I think we can all agree that one is terrible.
Also, yellow is a bad colour.

^This tbh

As for what I like, I've seen some pretty good GFX sigs (Not sure if that's how they are called) like Usagi's one for example.
I also like cute ones, the ones I find funny and if they have some cool gif.

OT: I don't really care much of signatures. There's some I've seen that look pretty nice though. Only ones I dislike are those "clickbait" ones, but I never fall for 'em any more.

What do you think of my sig? I totally have amazing GIMP skills. For some reason I decided to make one of my sig pics a gif, although it's hard to tell. I edited the "2015 anime challenge" text onto another picture to make it a bit more interesting.

Actually, I take back what I said. Yaoi sigs are best sigs. Everyone who changes their sig to a yaoi one will receive a Crunchyroll Premium pass.

Ones that are poorly edited but I also don't like signatures which contain things that are racist seen a few like that in other forums. People dont know how to respect others. But always like other peoples sigs especially if it looks like they spent a lot of time on them. Really like mayukachan's, Usagi's and RodrikZen's o-o
