Uhhhhh... we already have one... if the owners don't like it, we make you change it

Then start making it possible to ignore animated avatars (By just freezing the picture at first frame)

There is. It's called Firefox.

Go to the page about:config and locate the key image.animation_mode. set its value to ‘none’ to stop all animated gifs !

[Adagio]

But that kinda kills all gifs... I just want to kill the animations in avatars...

Get a browser that allows you to have site specific settings.

Naturally. We wouldn't want the sheep to stop saying "no" while we were watching, after all.

[DrSpike]

Yeah who knows what Jamski was asking in the first place!

[Theben]

Oh come on. It's not like Spamski is a kiwi or aussie.

[DrSpike]

Perhaps frustration has driven him to that level.

[Skanky Burns]

He's English. For all we know, he could have some welsh in him. :shudder:

[DrSpike]

There's no need to insult him further.

[Skanky Burns]

There is never really a need to insult people.

In Firefox, if you hit Escape (after a page has loaded) animations will stop.

[Adagio]

But that still kills all animations...
