Well consider for a moment the following situation. You're using a old PC with a dial up connection at work and you're reading a post when suddenly, due to a picture the size of your sig loading up, and due to it being duplicated 3 times on the same page, the post you were reading then gets pushed 2/3rds the way down the page and you have to scroll down to find what you were reading again. Also, when I first joined here I had a sig only half the size of yours and received an infraction from reallydedpoet for that sig and told to make it smaller, so it is a forum rule I'm afraid.
As far as making it smaller, you could always download the picture and host it on a site like Photobucket or Imageshack that include tools for resizing images which are easy to use.
So no, not a pointless comment.
