Avatars

How on earth can you get 400 posts, he hasnt got a gp32 surely, or he doesnt use it to play games...

To those who, like me, not only don't feel like uploading an avatar or creating a sig, but also think that they are annoying rather than personifying, you can change it so they don't even show up by clicking on My Controls above then "Board Settings".

I'm sure most people already knew, but I only discovered this awhile ago . Too busy posting to realize there's options to make the board whatever you want it to be (duh)!

I feel sorry for the 56kers on this forum, it must take half an hour just to be able to read the thread.

...the first time. Most modern browsers have a cache, so the only thing they end up downloading is the bloated html code, which users aren't responsbile for, and the sig texts...

I clear my cache a lot, but that isn't the problem... I'm on cable and everythign loads like a breeze. Its just that some people (okay, me at least) don't find avatars and sigs personifying, but rather just annoying. I'm here to catch up on the latest news ASAP and so don't find those things edifying. But to each their own I think its a great option to have on the board and its great to have an option not to view them too!

Opening myself up to flaming by disliking avatars, but 99% of the posters here are cool, that's why I keep reading.

Yeah, but don't you just hate having to scroll through half a page of images just to get to a little bit of text?

Degen: at the top of the topic, you'll see page numbers e.g.

Page 1 2 3 4 5 ... (go to first unread post)

Try the last link and you'll skip everything.

Besides pretty much nobody here has a sig image, there isn't much other than text and forum bloat to skip through.

I just picked a funny one from the list of avalable pics (if anyone else chooses this one, DEATH TO THEM!!!)

Just because you're right doesn't mean I'll take any notice.

I hope that was a joke...

 

[retrocraig]
