Just curious

[Andrew]

The previous version of the forum was unable to handle the awesome might that was my avatar, thus causing things to slow down for a lot of people.

Im curious about how the new version can handle things. I've added a more complex avatar for a test run.

Does it cause the forum(threads I post in) to run any differently for you guys?

OK for me .... i am on a 10M cable conn though

It's okay for me also, but like Geoff i'm on a fast connection.

Causes my page to hang up and the avatar moves really slow. This is on a pretty decent cable connection.

It's a bad thing to use animations and gifs in avatars and signature on forums !

IMHO

I agree but only when it is something rather complicated.

Well, I've gone ahead and removed it for now. Thanks everyone.
