Emoticons in your signature?

I have seen a few of you guys have emoticons of locomotives and rolling stock in your signatures, where can I find those?

They are called gifs. They should be available from a number of websites - just google it. I got mine via trainweb.org.

Steven,

there are thousands and thousands of pages in the web with emoticans, pictures etc. Just do a picture search. You may have to reduce the picture in size to be addedd to your signature.

That´s what I did with this picture:

If I can weigh in… I really think your signature is long enough as it is, maybe too long. Adding GIFs to it will make it even more cumbersome.

Simple is better in most of these cases.

My signature on my work email goes on FOREVER! I hate it, but it is what is required by company standards.

Steven:

With all due respect, we don’t care a hoot how fancy your signature is. Spend your time modelling and show us those results!

I wish there was a way to keep those things from fluttering. Some children seem to need attention. Hey, look at me.

I was just wondering, if I were to add them I would probably shorten the signature.

You could do that without adding an emoticon!

Most of the info in your signature belongs into your bio, not in your signature. And, IIRC, your are not a High School Senior any longer. Remember, this is not Facebook and you don´t make “friends” here by saying what you are going to do eventually, but by offering help and support and sharing your model railroading work with us.

OK I found the gifs of the locomotive I wanted, I shortened and corrected the info in the signature.

Also I don’t do Facebook.

This is how it appears now.
