Why do you need all that information in your sig? An email address and
website ought to be quite enough. In any case:
John B Brooklands | emailaddress@foobar.wibble.co.uk | ICQ: 123456789012
Visit my website - http://www.hostalot.net/~johnbb/amiga/index.html
That's a large amount of information fitted into two lines. There's space
for extra URLs and a short quote without being longer than 4 provided you
don't feel the need to tell the world about every obscure piece of
hardware that you have grafted onto an A500. Why on earth would you need
10 lines?
Quote carefully and read all ADMIN:README mails
