Rep Power: 12 | The reason we dont have animation and stuff like that enabled is that we get more then 30% visitors who access this forum using dial up connections and more then 15% who use either a gprs connection or a cdma based data card and if we allow large image files or animation ... it will increase the page loading time and some of those less fortunate visitors who come here using a dial up will spend 2-3 mins waiting for the page to load. Apart from that .. allowing gif files in avatars carries a stron security risk as well which is what we dont have html enabled either and no java scripts... If this world wide web only had nice people like you and no trouble makers.. we would have had a lot of goodies on this forum.. |

Rep Power: 12 | Forgot to mention... If its a small file .. please feel free to add it to your signature but you will have to upload it to some image hosting site and embed it as a picture inline and it should work just fine. |
