Pictures on posts

[turquoise5]

Is it just me, or do other people get annoyed by the large photos displayed at the ends of some posts?

This is not of earth shattering importance, but I find it irritating...it takes longer to page through the posts and interferes with the flow of reading. It's almost as annoying as those two or three word posts that have nothing, really, to contribute to the conversation.

Sorry 'bout that!

Voila! No annoyingly large picture signatures.
Also particularly useful for viewing The Ledge while at work (people looking over your shoulder will just see a page of text and no fancy banners).

great info, the photos, personally don't bother me a bit, i love to see what people use especially those who change frequently~ not just the sig photos, but also when people post pics of things, like tommer's vaca, or paula's camping trip, patties pic from the red sox parade & such, & of course the nites when everyone is being crazy & posts pics of themselves, not to mention pics from stevie/FM shows~ sorry i am one of those w/ a big sig pic, & i'm luvin' it!!! ~

If your signature, banners and/or pictures take up the entire screen length without any of the post being visible, it's too long. If you've got 3 huge banners or pictures stacked one on top of the other and you've thrown in some large moving or blinking images on top of it for good measure.....yes, it's too much. Less is more. I saw one tonight that could make small children blind if they looked at it for too long. I pity the Ledgies on dial up.

I think that's only an option for Supporting Ledgies. Another great reason to support the Ledge
