Avatars

[CRT3]

Big Redskin Fan apparently we are in the minority and are being overruled. Patience I guess but I lay claim to the Nelms one if so. If not I would love to get Old #33.

How ironic - We're Redskins fans living in the past.

Out of curiosity I added a poll, please vote. I'm not saying anything will change based on the results of this poll, I'd just like to see where we stand. Thanks

[Redskins_P]

I voted fine the way it is. I know Matty will have better ones for next season, so I'm not really worried about it.

But if I did have the option of choosing my own, I wouldn't be against it either.

I don't mind it like it is....we're earning our stripes for posting! It's funny how this issue has went seven pages!

[Daseal]

I like it how it is. I certainly don't want individuals to pick their own, but I'm not as opposed to a pool of avatars for every rank. As is it'll just take longer to load pages and avatars really DON'T MATTER!

[CRT3]

Thanks Matty. It is interesting to note that the above comments people say they are fine with it but aren't oppose to having it changed. Please also correct me or Daesal will it take longer to load these if we have a choice of Avatars?

[Daseal]

It will take longer on the average load to get multiple avatars, and it will take forever if people can pick whatever they like. Not to mention increase the bandwidth the site uses, and bandwidth isn't free.

Many people will cache a lot of the icons, no doubt about that. Personally, I much prefer it the way it is. If it is changed, just don't let people chose their own avatars it will slop the site up.

CRT3 - it's also interesting to note that everyone except you has voted to keep it the way it is as of now.

same here, as long as a silly thing like our avatars doesn't mess up and take away anything from what we all enjoy about this site.

Its freaking avatar. Thats it. If you want your avatar to change, then do your part by posting more like everyone else did. Whats the big deal? Why is that so hard to understand?

If you need help, just ask Malcolm. I think he's already surpassed me in posts and he's only been here for a couple of months! Just kidding Malcolm

It's all good man. You know my deal dude... what better way to spend work hours than talk about the Skins?

Sorry Redskin P I was just responding to Daseal. I have not made it a serious issue but I have asked questions, whats wrong with that? I have been posting but between wife, kids and work I have other things that I do. So by posting messages like this it makes me one closer to getting rid of Morton. With my luck he will return and score on more then one return and will be crowned the king of all return men.

No worries CRT3. You don't need to apologize. It's all good.

[BDBohnzie]

i am this close to turning off avatars altogether...they add nothing to the site, except to be able to see certain skins. i personally like how the avatar represents your rank.

i understand having personal issues with morton, however if that is changed based on one or 2 requests, that opens a flood gate to other changes...keeping people focused on little things instead of the broad picture

matty's in charge...it is his call to make, and i back it 100%.
