Seriously.

Firefox allows me to restrict images from specific domains. And thankfully all of PSCD's graphics are located together at Photobucket, so i don't have to look at anything she sticks in her avatar or signature line.

As for the bigger avatar... Ugh. Obviously i'm outnumbered when it comes to that. But just in this thread alone, signatures and avatars take up almost 90% of the screen realestate. The actual messages get lost in a sea of graphics and quotes. Like i said... i know that everyone seems to like it, but it bugs me and makes the forum harder to read. That's my opinion anyway.

Yeah, that's why I left mine at 100 square. 85x85 was probably a bit too small, but it did make the forum look neat and tidy.

Even with the new ultra sized avatars my screen is still neat looking.  Perhaps it has to do with the screen resoultion that people have their screens at.  I suggest making it a larger resoution, then the avatar won't seem to take up much room.

What can I say, I love the graphics, and they help me keep people apart better than names alone.  Glad they look bigger and clearer now.

I have signatures hidden.  The avatars aren't bad.  I don't think a couple dozen extra pixels is ruining the readability.

The forums won't be the same when the new site gets launched. So you'll just have to find a way to manage until then ;)

Awesome, that means brand new stuff for me to bitch and moan about! Sweet.

Seriously though, i know that i'm horribly in the minority here. My campaign of constant crying and whining has done nothing to win the hearts and minds of my fellow forum members. I'll stop threatening your family members now and just suck it up, i guess.

Sorry if i killed any of your pets... you big avatar-having jerkwads. Oh God, i'm sorry... i didn't mean that.
Deep breaths, nice and slow... serenity now.

;D

But without the constant pain your mere existance causes us, no one would ever leave the site...it would be overwhelmed and crash.

Think of it as a service.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Do what you want with the forums, but make sure they still work on my old Sprint phone. This site is the best thing in the world to do at airports. :^)

Well for me the width of the column to the left isn't set by the avatar size, so it hasn't affected things very much here.

If my existence can cause you pain, or manage to keep you away from the forums for even a little while... i'm sure that plenty of people consider it a service!

Well, the divorce hasn't gone through yet, but hate? Nah... it's just good-natured ribbing. At least it is on my end. Hating someone from a message board who you've never even met is pretty lame.

Although, i do block some of the more obnoxious images from the forum. Sorry if people take that personally and feel the need to attack me for it. But there ya' have it... nothing hate-filled or personal about it, really. From me anyway.
