Disabling display of others Avatars?

Post by Mystic_Blue » Wed Feb 02, 2005 11:44 am

I looked in the profile area, and could not find anything......

Is there a way, in these forums, to disable displaying OTHER peoples avatars?

Thanks

Firefox + Adblock for the win

Have to agree this is the best combo I've ever seen for blocking out annoying avatars, stupid sig pics and of course those goddamn ads. :smile:

Some of the sigs here are distracting. But a little distraction is a good thing!

Well considering I pretty much only check these boards at work (if I was home I would be playing EQ...) The bouncing boobs just mean chance of getting nailed. I like bouncing boobs as much or more then the next guy but a simple way to click a "Don't show avatars" would be really appreciated.

I'm in the same boat as you are, and I use Firefox + AdBlock as well. Right-click the avatar, pick AdBlock, and it's gone.
