I wish that my browser would just cache them or something...

[atawa]

Couldnt they just get a better server?

I hate the way forum looks without avatars

[Dauphin]

A better server would require more money. Are you willing to pay $1/mnth, say, for your avatar?

[atawa]

yes

The place doesnt look the same without them

[Dauphin]

In that case I'm sure you can set up a DD with Mark/Dan and they will ensure you get to see avatars at all times.

[MarkG]

DD?

[atawa]

Dont know what that means but are you able to work out a deal like that?

[Alex]

I also like the avatars, but I wouldn't pay for them. Besides, this "heat wave" will soon vanish... we just have to wait a few weeks after PTW is released. And MoO3, of course.

Direct Debit

A Direct Debit is an instruction from a customer to their bank or building society authorising an organisation (in this case Poly) to collect varying amounts from their account, as long as the customer has been given advance notice of the collection amounts and dates.

I think they only work in the UK. I vaguelly recall that my brother couldnm';t set up DD or SO when he lived in the States because his bank didn't do them.

[loinburger]

Entirely depends on the bank. Lazy banks don't do them, but most will.

My wife is leery about setting up DD because she doesnt like the idea of someone having access to our account. I dont mind though.
