is anyone else experiencing their computer slowing down when they get on a meduim size topic because of all the big or/and animated graphics? I think maybe we should have a rule or something...

Ehm, I don't consider my signature to be big. sometimes I see ones that span half the height of my computer monitor

Hm.. well a signature should be about 580 pixels (length) by 300 pixels(length) max. But we've been letting some people slide if they have a siggy close to those requirements. Oh yea, and your signature shouldn't be more than 100 kb combined. Meaning any images on your signature shouldn't be more than 100 kb in size. We have the power to delete any large signatures if necessary.

Ya, some websites that have alot of lag are usually the ones that can lag your computer if it has a slow processor like mine. I've seen bigger signatures on other forums that really lag my comp to death. Damn them.
