Hello mods,
Somebody altered my signature in my profile. I've been away for about 2 weeks, and got back in today and noticed there was a rather disrespectful icon (other than the one I personally chose) in my signature area. I have since deleted it. So, I guess this is just a heads up to let you know that there are definitely little hackers around this place.

Well as you are linking your sig pic to an external website the owners of the site (unless you run www.geocities.com/kikyouiscool) might not have liked people hotlinking to their images and so changed it to something disrespectful as you put it. Happens a lot. Funnier when it happens on an Ebay auction as after a point you can't edit pictures from an auction so are stuck with whatever it's changed to!

^^ Really? Never seen that on eBay before lol! Oh it's great. You get someone ripping off someones products or something and then the real owner changes the picture to a pile of poo or something pornographic and the seller can't change it and may also get in trouble for it! I've seen it a few times, depends on what areas you look in, where theres competition for the same sort of item you see it.

No no no. What I meant was, somebody ADDED a link with a picture (albeit small) to my signature area in my profile. The current picture I have in there was unaffected. In other words, there were two links to pictures - one of them was put there by myself, and one of them was put there by someone else while I was away from this board.
