Wouldn't it be neat if we had a members' links section in the Digital Art forum that had little banners for each of us? If Dhabih put them on the server then we could post them in our signatures. It would load faster then posting them from our individual sites. The section could be at the top were the employement list and draw club are at.

Alright.. half that size. No matter where the pics are at... after about 40 replies to a post with signature banners.. they will take awhile to load.

Hmm..... how about those neat 88x31 buttons ? I guess some of the people here already have one for their homepage anyways....

Don't you think that it would be better to mail Dhabih? Many people never enters on Random Musings, I wonder if Dhabih does.
Anyway it's a good idea, as Chapel has said, bump it up!

As long as the banners weren't part of the messages on the board, and were somewhere else, I'm down. Just no banners on the board. It takes long enough to load as it is.

I think there was already a topic on this a long time ago over in the Digital Art Forum. They wanted standard size buttons (88x33). I'm not in favor of it for the forum, but here's the one I did for that thread.

Dhabih looks over here every now and again. I was really thinking non-animated little snippets of something. Like an icon for yourself. My logic is that if there were on Dhabih's server then they would load faster. If they were little non-animated things it wouldn't be that bad.

Ian · Posted: Mon Dec 04, 2000 7:54 pm

the only problem is that every other cell is a different color so you do what, make two images for each color and hope nobody replies RIGHT while you are?

No duh Rushky.

but your image has to be pretty simple and have very simple edges and stuff if you want it to look good.... i dono. it was kind of 'a' stupid comment. (I think that was posted between coffe and lunch, so don't hit me.)

peace, ian

Yeah, i like the little-bigger-than small buttons (2x or 2.5x wider).
And non-animated is a good idea too. so only JPG accepted which can be like less than 1kb. Besides since in 40 post thread there are only like 20 posts by unique people. So think of a looad time 2x less than you thought.. :)

oh oh oh! About expressing yourself in 10x10 image.. Have you seen the g:tech's tag? It's simple and better than someone else would make at 80x20 so.. I kiss that transparent tag that g: has

Yeah, that one rules
