Some don't know and some seem to have forgotten that Big Ass pictures forces some of us to constantly scroll side to side in order to read the content of the thread we are interested in.

Yeah I know, bitch bitch bitch. Seriously though, I'm not the only one with this issue and sometimes I lose interest in some of the longer posts when I have to piece the sentences together. I would rather click into a photo album and look at your pics there.
Some of us have our albums available to peruse and some are very nice and very interesting.

Please cut down on size and number when going side to side. If you really must show your ugly mug in a third picture, try stacking it on the line under.
Thanks for your consideration. :)

Good point Skeeter. It does make it aggravating when you have to scroll side to side to read someone's post. Of course you may have to point fingers like you did to me or they want realize who you are talking about.

I have been over this and over this with members.
Some change and some just don't care.
Then you have new guys who don't read the rules and have no idea of the policy.
I have finaly given up asking.
You think scrolling is a pain in the ass, try downloading a video on dial-up http://s2.images.proboards.com/angry.gif:(" title=">:(" border="0"/> I don't even try that any more.

I am on 56 k dial up to, but figure the world isn't gonna change for me. I can't get cable of any kind and satilite here for the tv sucks. Any time it rains we loose tv, so I know in a real bad storm I will just have to go outside and look up.

This is why I try to keep my sig pics light.

There was a post earlier about this, and Trip had posted a link or mentioned a program called pixresizer that I downloaded, and it works great. Maybe some will find this helpful.

One solution to this is to go to your profile and change the "show signatures" from yes to no.
No more signature pictures will be displayed.
Of course, if you enjoy seeing the pictures, as I do, this isn't a great solution.
It will remove the need to scroll sideways though.

With the sig pics, it's almost like talking in person. As I scroll the posts I recognize the person by their pics. Don't want to do away with that. TC has four pics and they aren't a problem cuz the way they are stacked.

So far everyone that has posted here is not a problem.

Skeeter I remember months back I had an extra picture but mine were too large. You mentioned it to me and I corrected it. If I can do that anyone can.

Tim and Mac I know about dial up as I had that for a long time. It takes so long to download a picture or link by the time it finishes I had forgotten what I was supposed to look at.

I recently changed my pix as well and made them smaller. I hope they are small enough yet.

They are definitely small enough Loafer. You could almost fit another in there on the right.
I said ALMOST. Don't make me come over there. ;) http://s2.images.proboards.com/grin.gif

I went back and read the Forum FAQ about signatures. I'm now legal--no more three across.

For you guys on dial-up-- might as well wish you a Merry Christmas now so, by the time this downloads, it will be timely. ;)

Hey Yellow Jacket!!
Thanks for the tip. Now I can make my photo bigger so that the folks can see that I'm actually smiling ear to ear in that photo. I look a little constipated or sumthin in that small photo.

There is only one sig pic that bugs my system here. I can live with that easy.

I would get cable if it came here but it won't and I don't like the way satilite here shuts down the system upstairs in a slight drizzel. I do no real paid work on line and never will. So this is a hobby, and a toy as I see it.

Some theif takes this, and all he gets is old junk and that's it.

I have a lot of scrolling to do with a few that have not visited here, or if they have, they don't get it. My problem is scrolling side to side. I use a net book. Thanks to everyone else. Greatly appreciated.

why is page two wider than page one. Kris is the only one with a pic that slides off the page but, I thought his was OK the other day.... What changed?

Ever since this link came out I have tried to make my picture smaller... I have tried everything but it's either very tiny or this size! So.. I'm gonna keep it where it is....
