hunkahunka Rookie Author New Orleans Posts:11 Points:440 Joined:Mar 2012	Message Posted: May 2, 2012 10:48:46 AM Ignore hunkahunka Report Abuse Does spotting the repositioning of the avatar entitle you to a 5% discount on your next gasoline purchase? That I could go far; but it makes me no difference avatar or not as long as the graphics do not get so over board that it causes a download failure...as I have AT&T DSL and they have not made any upgrades in the New Orleans Area on their equipment since Hurricane Katrina tore up what they had down here, and they have signed up everybody and their dogs to Uverse which includes DSL computer connections and has overloaded the system and what I used to have...a decent computer connection and decent speed, now I have what is equivalent to dial up speed. So, don't over load your graphics as us AT&T customers won't be able to download the site graphics and the connection will fail.
