Geez, the giant avatars. I mean, the board I come from, having such a large avatar usually means insant ignore list by all. They really make the board hare to read.

I'm on another board where the avs can only be super-small. I hate it.

Here = good


You'll learn to love it.

Big avatars really shouldn't be a problem unless your using 640x480. And if you're talking about file size, an intermediate Photoshop user can easily get a 250x250 avatar below 30kb.

We've thought about restricting file size even more, but that would be a huge problem for the occasional animated avatar. And we wouldn't want to crush artistic expression.

Try changing your resolution to 1280x1024. That's my resolution and I have no problem with the avatars. But I agree the avatars are to large if you have a low resolution.

Then again low resolutions are for little pussies

it takes a while to find ur place. i admire that u havn't overposted to get attention, or to make urself known before ur time. i think u've integrated nicely into the class of ppl like Link, Slick Shoes, fulty.

also if this is gonna turn into xixax-hate thread, consider it redirected.

Big avatars? Well why don't you bitch and moan about it, GE? because that'll certainly change things around here.

I have too many posts and I feel the same way.

The key is, or at least what I do, post like someone would read it.  It not only makes it nice for someone to read, but at the same time, makes you feel like someone is.

I only feel that way because no one quotes my posts that often.  (Aside from the one just done up there)

It makes me feel like people skip right over my posts.

And before anyone says it, I know.  "They do".

:yabbse-cry:  Sometimes I feel the same way, but I just remind myself that I'm not as geeky as anyone here.  :wink:

people tend to notice who you are if you never change your avatar. i know i never bother to look at who posted what, i just look at avatar. if it's clever and i don't know who you are, i'll read the name. otherwise...prepare to be obscurified.

i just made that word up.

I liked your Eternal Sunshine one... the fact that you removed it and that everyone else removed it *meaning theatres* makes me sad
