    heya lads,
    hope every1 is doing well. Ive been a member of a few forums, and this is the best. Thats why i spend neraly all of my free time on here. Ive seen on other forums that people have avatar lpaces on the left of the page..just wondering if that was a good idea?

    Cheers

    Feel free to criticice. :)

    but what do you think would be better? avatars, only haveing one or two pics? or a sig, displaying info and such,, but both at the same time would kinda suck... i still dont know how to get a pic in my sig :p, so getting one on a avatar would be chaotic to me, :p

    good idea though

    I like the sigs cause its different to the other forums also when u have avatars i have noticed the size of memory used for the pic is limited whereas in sig its a bit more flexible.

    I dunno but I myself love the site the way it is, I hate avatars as I always end up having the sh*tty ones!

    Please, no avatars at aD!

    (just my opinion guys :))

    Don't quote me on this, but I believe I have read somewhere that dRD isn't a big fan of avatars..

    And if he doesn't like them, well.. that's more or less that ;-)

    you need to find the picture you want, then right click and click 'copy image location'.. now you can paste what you copied (ctrl+v or otherwise) to where you have to type text in your sig,, =)

    I tried it on a pic that i already have and that option does not appear (the copy location). Does it have to be an internet pic?
