The place where everyone hangs out, chats, gossips, and argues

i have to say that this is nuts. my problems with this are threefold:

1. slightly-bigger-than-they-should-be avatars have been around for ages, why is this being addressed now?

2. notice how my name was first on chris' list? is this because someone had an issue with my avatar recently? i think so. point your blame now.

3. we are set to lose/change some great avatars here. such as gaspodes, i mean, what a legendary av. (and i really really like my av too)

how about if you think someones avatar is an issue then have a poll on it to see if other users have a problem with. that would be more sensible and diplomatic in my opinion.

please rethink this

maybe it's something to do with the fact that yours was reset and then you put it back up still greater than the allowed size. :roll:

if the rules are changed i have no problem, but don't blame me for the rules someone else made up. :roll:

maybe if you weren't always so quick to have a go at me i wouldn't be so annoyed with you and feel like pointing out your infraction in public :wink:

When I created mine I made sure they were the exact size I could have them so a problem like this wouldn't happen.

You really wanted me to check the 1094 avatars I kindly offer for people to use? *sigh* ... all changed.

Avatars that are too long make the page unnecessarily long (especially on short posts)

Avatars that are too wide expand the name section giving less space to the message and, again, make the page longer

A nice selfish view there, you willing to pay for every's connection then? Plus some people are unable to get certain types of connection like Broadband.

Yeah, he should pay for the higher res screens as well so it don't stretch too much.

If you want to pay for Broadband up here, persuade the right people to get it in the first place and pay my connection fees to look at slightly too big avatars, I'm not complaining...

I agree Gem. I mean I really dont see why people are moaning. I had one of the avators that was too big so I changed it. It does make peoples post too long and also connection speeds slower

Ahh, finally I've done something that people admire.

Don't mean to be picky, but the lava lamp's still too big.

Good to know, thanks!

Disappointing that they haven’t replaced Pippa in […]
