Just updating this to see if there is any interest in new requests. Don't be shy.
I can't guarantee I will do what people ask for, but for the most part I will try my hardest to do it as long as I feel it will benefit the site.

This site is one of the best looking sites out there for f-bods, hands down. The things you guys do to personalize the sigs, avatars, etc, really spruces it up to a high level. The software you use to run the site is top notch too. Unfortuneatly, as far as content goes, you have some really stiff competition out there with LS1tech.com, and CamaroZ28.com. The only thing I could suggest to grow, would be to find a little niche in the f-body market and concentrate on it. As far as I know you are the only site offering free customized sigs, why not spread the word some more? Everyone loves to see his/her car glamourized.

I agree, but think that we would need more than one person making the sigs. I don't know how long it takes to make one, but based on the quality of sigs that Rocket makes I'd say atleast an hour or two (probably more) is put into each one.

Thanks for the compliments Joelster, nice to see that people do enjoy what we've done.
I know that it will be near-impossible to compete with LS1Tech, and really I don't have my goals set to go after them. Not only are they huge, but they are now owned by the owners of the forum software we're using, they bought them out a few months ago 
I don't think that a forum that large is really my goal. I'd love more posts, and that is what we're aiming at, but we don't really need 20,000 users. I'm just looking to make this place for all F-Body enthusiasts, offer deals, and create a genuinely fun and intelligent place to hang-out with others.
I'm not sure what niche I'd be able to push the site into right now, but maybe in time it will just naturally settle in somewhere.

I've already offered my services for making sigs to Rockett, but as per time needed in making one, it really differs depending on what you want the sig to look like, and the original photos used in the sig. I can make one in 15 minutes, or spend hours upon hours working on one.
