Welcome I don\'t know why the avatarrs have been turned off probably because people would be putting in some +17 pictures or something I don\'t know why but 500 posts gets you a picture.

I honestly have no idea as to why people are so interested in the damn picture. I mean, do people sign up to forums simply to use a pic???

Gosh... Anyways...

This forum takes quite awhile to load with 56k people and I\'m sure there are some people out there with modems even slower then 56k.  With that in mind, imagine if there was 20 pictures per page that had to be downloaded each time you clicked on a thread.  That\'s why there is a post limit for pictures and that is why image code, html, and the avatarrs are disabled from the start.  Need another reason?

It\'s because the administrators said so.  That should be reason enough for everyone posting here considering the fact that they pay for the hositng.
