Definition of a .SIG file A short block of text at the end of a message identifying the sender and providing additional information about them.
Information A .sig file is small text file (with a .sig extension) that can be automatically attached to the end of email messages. The phrase SIG file is also used to identify blocks of text used for similar purposes through different channels, such as discussion group messages.
For personal use, SIG files often include humorous sayings or signature art. These can be automatically rotated so frequent recipients do not see the same message every time.
For business use, SIG files often include a mix of contact information and business promotion. This may include the sender's name, job title, company name, phone #, fax #, email address, Web site address, tag line and brief benefits of your products or services.
There are netiquette issues concerning posting a sig in public forums. Some moderated forums discourage and disallow any form of self-promotional signature. As always, fully read the Terms & Conditions and get a feel for what is acceptable at a forum before posting.

hmmm, that is odd. These are two separate graphic files sent for printing. Both are saved as .sigs. I'll look into it more, thanks for the info!!

Suelynn, make them send you an eps or ai. Don't waste your time trying to figure out what program they used. If they can't provide you with a file format that you can use, they can provide you a jpg and pay you to recreate it.

Sig files are the end of a Email message as well.

its worse than i thought...this is the lawn mower decal freakshow right? i think you need to blacken out a few teeth, glue some black fur to your armpits(assuming you're wearing a sleeveless shirt)...otherwise soak the pits so there's a 12" diameter of sweat stains, burp & fart really loud around this guy(make sure you've eaten beans and drank a few beers)...and don't forget to let the spit fly while engaging in conversation...some spinach in the other teeth may help...in otha words...you need to make him go away foreva! face it...you're too much of a sign babe...he'll keep darkening your doorstep until you do something drastic!

Heck, as bad as it is, I have definately seen a lot worse. With some tweaking, it could be OK.
Alright, make that a lot of tweaking...

Personally...I think the stylised bike and rider is kinda decent.
4 is overkill, though, and the lettering could use some work.
