Does this sig make me look fat?

I've been torn between sorrow for your plight and the wish to be put through that kind of ordeal myself.

Hey, I'm always happy to take one for the team. Whatever the cost, you know I've got your back.

In plain, uncolored text, where "here" is a link to a more detailed page.

I actually find the "here=link" approach more distracting than having more of the text be underlined as part of the link. "Here" and "click here" are dead terms -- the eye is drawn to them because they're underlined/in a different color, but they have no direct context.

After jumping to the "here," I have to scan back to find out what "here" is all about. Not that you asked , Merak, but I think your sig would look a lot better with a few more words underlined in each link, rather than just "here."

You dare suggest that you are allowed to have an opinion different from my own? Foolish heretic!

I just don't like links, and prefer them to be as short as possible.

Not that anything in my sig is of interest to anybody anyway. It's been over a year since some of those threads were at all active.
