If you limit avatar size, then they don't cause that much of a bandwidth issue. -------------------- #99835 [Guo_Si] Hey, you know what sucks?

It's not bandwidth that's the issue, since the avatars weren't stored onsite. It's loading time for people using the forums. Some avatars were hosted on slow servers and took forever to load, and sometimes failed to load at all, which on some browsers prevented the rest of the page they were on from loading. -------------------- I believe there are 15 747 724 136 275 002 577 105 653 961 181 555 468 044 717 914 527 116 709 366 231 425 076 185 631 031 296 protons in the universe, and the same number of electrons. -- Sir Arthur Eddington Posts: 9973 | Registered: Saturday, March 30 2002 08:00 |

Again, it was not my decision. And with regards to other forms of BB, I'll resist them all violently.

Maybe it's fairly good (at best), Drakey, but it's far from great and there's many niggling features that are fairly lacking (such as being able to set the time to whatever part of the world you're in). -------------------- KazeArctica: "Imagine...wangs everywhere...and tentacles.

In my experience, UBB is the worst messageboard at keeping track of which posts I have read. -------------------- Grammar wenches beware: This is the house that the malt that the rat that the cat that the dog that the cow that the maiden that the man that the priest that the cock that the farmer kept waked married kissed milked tossed worried killed ate lay in.
