Besides, you can't just make an allowance for a few bytes here and there. Because once it's a few bytes, then what's wrong with a few more? And so on and so forth.

0.3 kilobytes = 300 bytes, by the way. That's more than a few.

56kers could go to sleep before the page loaded.

I like my avatar and it's less than required size

Heads up & greetings everbody

I'm new at this place, and I'm pleased 2 meet You outthere behind the screens. Recently I joined Rice-Box forum and they allowe 100x100pix, 12k avatars (I think it is - but don't hang me allright). It's an ok size I think, and really shouldent be any problem here either. I would liked to use the same avatar here as I do at R-B, but it got all mashed up when I tried to resize it...so I had to find another one for this place. Bugger.
