Yeah, I know that. That's why I moved them. It just irks me to hear that it's "the people with dragons in their signatures that are causing all the problems" .... It all depends on where you keep the little buggers.

Bob, if you right click on the image and select "copy image location", you'll get:

This is how the dragons/eggs mature. so, if you look at that message in two weeks there might be different images because the dragon(s) have grown. The whole system is designed so that the images will NOT be cached by browsers. BOb |

That image link is specifically for the dragon "2HU9". It's in every post (that has her sig).
Oh, and the images are cached. Whenever I expose a hidden dragon I have to go clear my cache before I can see it. |

I did the same today after having waited 1 minute twice for a page containging postings by Nate the great to be loaded. Maybe the blocking information should be given to new members and be placed in a FAQ.

The way I work around it is, if the thing seems to be hanging, I click on the "Stop" option on the browser, and it goes right to the place i want to be at. I prefer not to turn off siggies, because they are fun. The dragons got a bit boring after a while, but i can't see banning them when there is a way around it that works okay.
