Yeah, it could...depending on how slow the system is.

Mine is pretty slow and honestly PC loads faster than any site I go to.

Hey Kalamity_Jane,

Yes, sometimes the bigger kB signatures take longer to load, and make loading a page longer...

As DocJohn posted in FAQs:

</font><blockquote><div id="quote"><font class="small">Quote:</font>

We ask that you keep your images relatively small. As a rule, please do not exceed 125 x 600 pixels and/or 35k for a signature image. This will ensure that the forums load quickly for all users.

</div></font></blockquote><font class="post">

Hope that helps! To find out the size of any pics in your signature, you need to right-click and click "properties" or any sort of link like that for info about the size.

its bad when thoughts start to hurt lol.... I never have problems with images, however i do find Psychocentral does load really slowly at certain times, usually during the night. but thats probably just the server.

I was asked to remove or shrink my Meez sig due to size so apparently they do watch for it. I didn't mind, I honestly never had any idea what size it was as it's provided by the meez site.
