Some things i wanted to share …

  1. The default/build-in Avatars (Most GS Members are humble creatures “unPrivileged” to have custom Avatars)… comeon … they r too few and they r really childish seems like some one at GS never got enough of Simpsons. Need to add more and some diverse icons.

  2. The default size of avatars … ive visited too many forums and BB’s and most of these support around 50x50 resolution … why … they might look like a portrait to some one having 640x480 res. but many people have monitors supporting res. equal or above 1024*786 … and at that resolutions the default size is way too small.

Also had some things in my mind about the signature missing image but may be GS admins are afriad of the contents … i understand that.

I hope that admins give these suggestions a OPEN heart.

Re: 1. Yes, I plan to add more avatars to the stock. If you have more avatars that you'd like to 'donate' to our stock, pls feel free. Send me a PM.

Re: 2. No. After careful review I have decided to maintain the current avatar size. GUPSHUP is a discussion board and I'd like to maintain it as such. Bigger or too animated avatars distract from the discussions. It is for this reason, I enforce a strict size policy.

Thanks all the same.
