Get rid of animated avatars/sigs


Recommended Posts

I was wondering when somebody would suggest this. UMFan causes all kinds of problems for me.

 

Gee I wonder why.

 

You can disable all avatars/sigs in the User Control Pannel. I don't have a particularly fast computer or internet connection and I don't have any trouble loading pages with lots of animated sigs. Heck, even when surfing on my IPhone on the 3G network it doesn't take a noticable amount of time to load (relative to the time it takes to load a regular page).

 

Maybe I'll take it down tomorrow due to not intending to ruffle anyone's feathers (besides Packer fans)

If you do so you should in turn insist that he take down his Aaron Rodgers avatar. :twisted:

 

Actually his sig does make my pages load slowly when using wifi. Although I have to admit, it would be more enjoyable if it was something like Ted Lilly plowing Yadier Molina. Or, of course, if it was a montage of Jay Cutler throwing to Packer defenders, or Greg Jennings... Oh, you get the picture.

I use Wifi and have no issues.

thats not true at all...

 

yeah it doesn't matter what kind of connection you have, animated stuff is going to slow things down, even if you have a great connection and don't really notice it.

 

i have to agree with IMB's assessment of cubbiebum's avatar.

 

What was that?
