Yours is 4,810 bytes.  That's not bad; I'd leave it as is.

unlovedwarrior, I went ahead and took a closer look, and I have something that's not only a little smaller file but looks better.  Here it is:

You don't Still Use a GX1 Do you ?

<----- That's it!


I have faster machines, but my trusty workhorse is in fact a GX1 with a PIII-500 512 RAM a 60 gig hard drive and an onboard 8 meg AGP video chip. I can do everything I might need to, except run the latest games (which I don't need to). Movies, video, internet, e-mail, everything else...it's more than fine. It is quiet, runs cool (doesn't even need a CPU fan, just a heatsink) is compatible with everything, and has a 200 watt PSU, which is more than adequate!

I tried a P4 3+ gig machine and I couldn't type any faster. (I'll bet you couldn't either.  )

Well i do have a slightly more power full PC , but no it cant type any quicker nor can it make websites load faster or can do my work for me... but it Runs BF2 Pretty Sweet ^.^

Also i just Turned around , and there is a large pile of Beige Boxes ... with words like dell and opti on them ... i think there may be some or your Trusty GX's in there , just waiting to be disposed of... its sad they couldn't keep up with the bad office employees spyware habits..

Ummm ..., unlovedwarrior, you asked for it and I gave it, but you're not using it.  Wondering why.  If you really can't see a difference, then your eyes must be older than mine, and mine are probably older than most here in the forum.  And, I can definitely see a difference.  

[unlovedwarrior]

i cant put in

[soybean]

What's the problem?  Do you remember how you set up your original avatar?  To get to the profile edit screen for that, you click on Profile, then Modify, then Options.

[unlovedwarrior]

how do i put it in i have own pic part :-?

[soybean]

Not sure what you mean by "pic part".  I know this is a huge challenge for some people, but can you try writing sentences with full words?

[unlovedwarrior]

the part that says:

i have my own pic:

then it asks for the url

[soybean]

Hmmm, you just changed your avatar to a completely different image. Obviously, you know the procedure.  Just save the image I posted to wherever you keep your avatar image, then access your Profile and put the proper URL in the box.
