-s/<itzo- Posted January 3, 2003 Posted January 3, 2003 i have a suggestion for the "store" why don't we have a feature to increase av size limitation to an extent were it don't hurt the loading time dramatically. i was thinking 100x100 and up to 30-40,00kb. so what do you guys think, good or bad idea???

-s/<itzo- Posted January 3, 2003 Author Posted January 3, 2003 is 100x100 and up to 40,00kb that bad??? ok how bout 80x80 and up to 35,000kb. ain't that reasonable?
ZBomber Posted January 3, 2003 Posted January 3, 2003 Theres a big thread for suggestions in the Feedback forum....
-s/<itzo- Posted January 4, 2003 Author Posted January 4, 2003 yeah i have a thread similar to this Feedback forum. but i created this thread to see what the members think since the swamp is the most populated forums around.
ET Warrior Posted January 4, 2003 Posted January 4, 2003 I dont like that idea. My 56K can barely handle the load times as is...if people had bigger avvies.....
-s/<itzo- Posted January 4, 2003 Author Posted January 4, 2003 its not like everyone is going to have 80x80 & 35,00kb avs. not everyone is in to animated avs. personally i don't think it will hurt the loading that bad. a good solution to this is to set the price for it so high that only a few people would have it.
gorganfloss Posted January 4, 2003 Posted January 4, 2003 I would like to agree with this but I cant bring myself to. Having bigger avs would be cool but it would slow the forums too much...stuff barely loads now and Im using cable...
-s/<itzo- Posted January 6, 2003 Author Posted January 6, 2003 i mess up in my previous post. i meant 35-40 kb. what was i thinkin puting 35-40,000 kb. sometimes when i think and type at the same time it don't come out the way i expected. sorry for the missunderstanding.
Camus Posted January 7, 2003 Posted January 7, 2003 food for fact... simple yet true fact 2/10 have DSL 1/10 have cable 7/10 have other connection types...
Katarn07 Posted January 7, 2003 Posted January 7, 2003 Maybe just to access their main page thing. They can make the Avatar larger there...
Camus Posted January 7, 2003 Posted January 7, 2003 I could see forking out 1200-2000 for a slight file increase... :S up to 80x80
lukeskywalker1 Posted January 7, 2003 Posted January 7, 2003 that would be cool, and if it loads to slow turn pictures off.
greedo626 Posted January 7, 2003 Posted January 7, 2003 Originally posted by DarkSaber-<ZeN> http://www.sogamed.com/members/148136.jpg Try that for a avatar.... hahaha bengals suck. I like the idea. of course I sitting here using my super fast cable modem:D
-s/<itzo- Posted January 8, 2003 Author Posted January 8, 2003 here another suggestion: since we've been recieving alot of pointless threads here in the swamp lately, we should have a points system regarding to creating a thread. this will make people think before creating a thread.
Darth Groovy Posted January 8, 2003 Posted January 8, 2003 Originally posted by ZBomber Theres a big thread for suggestions in the Feedback forum.... This should be "yoinked" to the feedback forum. The new features are more than enough, the last thing I want to see is the server die over a few pixels of whatever. Besides different size avs would just screw the board layout too much. We have had enough problems with people who put a book where the signature should be, and then you have to scroll all day just to get to the next post. Sometimes things sound better on paper then they actually turn out. You have to remember that for ages the search funtion and sig pics were disabled to preserve the server. I don't think big avatars is a good idea at all, sorry.
