    Mine was 4 months before his

    Interesting how the sigs stay the same as they were back then, but the avatar is present (we didn't have them in those days) and the other stuff like location is current. Strange.

    That's probably because it was originally UBB which wrote the sig into each post, rather than looking it up like vB does.

    Dunno, have to ask John

    Quite possibly. I remember when they changed from UBB to vB. I didn't like it at first.

    Then they changed vB into new version of vB which was all purple for a week or so (nice!!).
