Are we ever going to get custom avatars for the forums? Because that'd be great.

Also, you should really limit the maximum size of signatures, especially images, as I've already seen people with image signatures that practically take up half a page, even if their post is only one line long.

Finally, how about implementing additional information to be displayed beneath our avatar when we post, like character name, the server we play on, and our job/race?

Note: if you have a custom avatar selecting this option will delete it., in the "Edit Avatar" section, gives it away.
