Are we allowed dynamic sigs such as counters or image rotators?
No. You're not allowed to use dynamic sigs on HF. They can be abused and normally slow the loading of pages. So we ask that you do not use dynamic images in your sig. This rule also applies to avatars.
We recommend you take the time to read the HF Help Documents section. The answer to your questions should be contained in there.
How did nobody even check the Help Docs. Glad you have the sense to do it

I swear I didn't see that on the list... I'm blind :(

I've seen multiple people have their signature/avatar privileges removed, rep killed, banned, and closed for doing this over the past 6 years.
Don't do it. It screws with page load times because users have to recache your images every time the image loads.
As Orgy stated, it's plainly displayed in the rules that it's not allowed.
Cron jobs are included in this rule, as it's still a dynamic image, regardless of how it's achieved.
