To the administrators. Are/Will we be able to post custom avatars?

 

[conan]

What's up? Didn't a moderator, or an administrator read my thread?

 

[Dragthor]

Sorry...no custom avatars at this time.

 

[Dragthor]

Thanks for the idea/suggestion. Maybe in the future...

 

[conan]

Not all forums will let you upload or host custom avatars . It might not be an option .

Avatars are "cool", but like everything, members get carried away with the "can you top this" attitude. It gets even worse with signatures

I think the custom avatars are in general a great idea.

HOWEVER...unless the site has the appropriate upgrades for bandwidth etc, it will result in slower downloads and connections of pages.

I would definitaly not want them if that would be a result.

The other problem is once you offer avatars, everyone will be asking for personal banners on the bottom of their posts. This can double or triple the problem if it is allowed. Not to mention the fact that most members really don't have any interest in reading other peoples personal advertisements on the bottom of every post.

I vote for keeping it simple...this isn't political forum, or a fashion show, I don't see any need for the "flash" if it will distract in any way from the performance of this website....Just my opinion.

Glad to see I am not the only that feels this way...

exactly! this is why we don't have them. keep the site simple as possible to keep it running as smooth as possible.

good post jc![up]

I think custom avatars will make the site look ugly. Plus, I really do not have time right now to code it.
