It is a very good way of attracting people if you are a good avatarist and made it yourself. When I see really cool avatars, I tend to look at the signature to see who made it, and if it's self-made, I tend to remember the avatarist. I've still got a bunch of good avatarists floating around in my head, even though they haven't been active for years.
