Subject: Your current signatures...

Written By: Marty McFly on 07/18/07 at 9:36 pm

I've kinda wondered about some of them from time to time. And since we have an avatar thread, why not?

For the present, mine is a music video montage (I wonder if anyone can name 'em all). ;)

Mine is a mixture of some of the retro things that interest me.

From left to right:

The infamous Kit-Cat clock. I want to get one of these for my kitchen...but not a replica...an original. ;)

Pop art kitties

Good Old Rosie the Riveter....heck ya the ladies can do it!

A pop art version of one of my favorite retro dolls..yep, that would be Blythe.

And last but not least...a very cool roadside attraction..a pink dinosaur! RAWR.

I agree....what's even funnier is that, I had a Rosie O'Donnell joke in mind when I was writing that. ;D I ought to say that, even when she did standup on VH1 in the early '90s, while I occasionally thought she was funny, she got on my nerves if I had to listen to her for too long. I was glad she just MC'd the show most of the time, lol.


For the record, here's the videos in my sig, which knowing me, I'll probably change

-Money For Nothing (the computerized Mark Knopfler pointing at a row of televisions as a fictional video on MTV is playing)
-Jump (the band with David Lee Roth doing an over the top performance)
-Boys of Summer (Henley riding through town past a deserted building)
-Opposites Attract (MC Skat Cat dancing with Paula on the stairs)
-Billie Jean (MJ lighting up the sidewalk with his dancing)

On the left: A slogan that is self explanatory.  I actually made this as my signature based on something someone once said to me that pissed me off.  With the smaller font, I thought it looked really good as a signature line

On the right: a link to a picture of Emmanuelle Chriqui, a Canadian actress

I remember that one..I like it! Perhaps you could upload it to photobucket.com or imageshack.us or something...and then put it in your profile. It's been that way for awhile, but I didn't really think about mentioning it, until this thread came into existence. :D

I thought about doing that but I thought that I would try this way one more time. I have reinserted it. Can you see it now? If not, I will see if I can find it on another website before uploading it. (I hate uploading anything if I can avoid it-need I mention that I have &^%$* dial-up  >:( )

Mine are three various qoutes:

"Being happy doesn't mean everything's perfect, it means I'm choosing to look beyond" Anon.

A nice qoute that just represents a state of contentment.

I've never slept much, ever. Since I was born, I haven't.
Vivien Leigh


Someone who I admire and am a collector of her memorabilia. The quote has always run true for myself, as I've never been a very sleepy person myself. I keep late hours.

Democracy is the worst form of government except for all those other forms that have been tried from time to time - Winston Churchill

A perfect political quote that no one can deny as being true.

^ The only bummer about too many images in your sig, is when it gets too big for the page horizontally, it moves to a second line and you can't see it when you're in the board (although you can if you click on someone's profile). I had that same problem at first lol.


BTW mine are pretty much the same, just rearranged. From left to right - Beavis and Butthead, "Opposites Attract" with Paula, the old-school VH1 logo of the early '90s, the Full House intro shot, and Weird Al's Bad Hair Day album cover.
