Title: OT - Animated Avitars - Ok or not Ok
Post by: bebop on July 22, 2004, 11:08:19 am

While looking for some nice ones, I noticed that there were alot of boards that don't allow them - something to do with loading times.   Are they a problem, should I change to a still pic  :-\  or can they be made smaller somehow  so they load faster?

Either way, the one you have now is pretty cool.

Thank God for Privoxy.  People can have all the animated GIFs and avatars they want and I don't have to see them.  This way both parties win.

 ;D  Yup, freedom of expression  and freedom to ignore it.  Ain't it grand?   " The Psychology of Avatars and Graphical Space
in Multimedia Chat Communities"  by John Suler, PhD, Rider University, is a good read.   ;D
