under general settings there is the ability to do this… I’ve had it like this for years now… I view sigs only.

I like the sigs/avatars, I just choose to block certain people’s who are a bit over the top for work. With Firefox and Adblock it’s easy.

Right click image, Click Adblock Plus: Block Image, Select the last option “Custom”, Click OK.

Plus this way it only blocks it on my work computer where I care.

It’s freedom of choice. We’ve all had this discussion before about browsing and work. That is why you have the option to turn it off yourself.

I’ve been meaning to do this. I had mine shut off with the old version of the board and it came back. Just been too lazy to fix it.

the problem that you leave out is that it increases the chance of work filters banning nyspeed (and friends). I don’t see it in the benefit of Josh to have his websites banned more places.

So I would think the default of work safe would make the most sense.
