I'm the one responsible for removing most part of your signature.
I think I've already spoiler-tagged pictures in your signature twice or three times. And they kept coming back. Yesterday I've noticed ALL of the pictures in your signature are back, taking overall about 800px height and not to mention MB weight. Imagine, if everyone would have 1MB of pictures in signature: 30 signatures per page, so browsers needs to download 30MB to load a single forum page- on the 512kbps connection it would take 8 FULL MINUTES TO LOAD A SINGLE PAGE! Now you realise the scale of the problem?
Having cool pictures in signature is ok as long as you don't overdo. We have to think about people with slower internet connections, or with lower screen resolutions. Even on my 1050px height desktop your signature covered most of the screen making forum less readable.
Because it was not the first time I removed it instead of tagging it. It's nothing personal (I'm glad that you help a lot on the forum lately, you write many usefull posts), I just won't let users suffer because of any overload signature.
If you want, set up a new signature, but remember about tagging it, and keep it reasonable (Netiquette says about max 4 lines of text but if you're using graphics try to stick to 100-200kb overall weight and 100-200pix overall height of the signature). And remember a golden rule: on a discussion board the most important is what you write IN your posts, not under them :)

Just don't overfeed it, don't make it wishy-washy and you'll be a good responsible Signature Keeper :]
