This place, with all the images, takes FOREVER to load and I know Lucky mentioned something about it in the Draft thread, as well, so it's not just me that thinks this.
Plz.
Wow.
So animated avatars annoy both Lucky AND Gimmick?
If I could get Dev to complain too I hit the trifecta!!!!!!! ;D
The board's never slowed me down too much with animated avs. With this many large ones my loading time HAS increased a bit, but for the most part I'm just living with it because I have a slow computer and I know it. I will say that some of those big Fantasy Baseball threads like the draft with a bunch of animated avs and the countdown widget? Man, sometimes I just got up to take a piss or pour a drink while loading.
But like I said, I know I have a slow computer so I'm personally just dealing with it. I'm just kind of sticking to the Fantasy Baseball stuff I have to check when I'm on the slow computer (I'm not at the moment).
Wow, Solly's av is 600+K and Tex's is nearly 700? Ok, maybe they are especially large avs.
Or don't do either. If you can't find an image you like at either than don't force it. Just give me something you like and which will look good on the board.
I have no idea because I'm not on the slow one. Really, I'm content just loading slowly for awhile. A lot of the avs are already being replaced or bandwith is dying on them. I was just speaking up to clarify my position so GM mentioned me. The Countdown widget adds loading time to me. But its cool so whatever. 10 seconds of loading time isn't that big a deal. People are having fun with the avs so I can live and work around them for awhile. I can turn them off in my preferences if I want, I think.
