Sorry if this is in the wrong section, but I can’t see avatars or pictures or signatures, but I DID check the check-boxes to be able to see them, and I have triple-checked to make sure I saved the options. Is there a glitch in the works?

With one limited exception, the Marketplace forum, the admins here don’t allow pictures. There are no avatars (though it’s been discussed). This was done to speed up the boards.

Signatures _are_ allowed, but have to be explicitly enabled on each post. Most people don’t.
