Well, you might as well change it, because someone will remove it for you.

I think it will be better for you to do the deed.

I find it very distasteful. Israel is a MOST sacred ground.

Before you get all upset, you might want to verify that the signature image is within limits in terms of size.

Also, does it link to some other site? That might be the problem.

There are a number of members with support/boycott Israel signatures, so I don't think the theme is the problem.

*dbates reads post and looks back at Complain button at the top of the page. Think to himself, "Gee I wonder what that button is for?" *


....End mind-reading session.

Maybe the first step is to U2U the mod who sent you the U2U.

I can tell you right now that the image is too big. Images in signatures should be no bigger than 500x50 px.

helium3, you should have raised this question using the Complain function, not this forum.
