Well then get rid of dial up and get High speed.. hehehe oh im just kidding dont start throwing the tomatoes just yet 
I set up a new "low graphic" template because we were getting some complaints from a few dial up members that the pages are loading to slow with all the avatars and big signature lines people have... Its a lagit complaint. Some of us ( and I say us as to including myself) have big ole animated Avatars and Big jumping cartoons in our signature lines.. Which is just fine, thats one of the things I like about the board the most.. Adds life to the board IMO... But I can remember back to the dial up days, so i can understand EXACTLY where there coming from... Who the heck cares about graphics and cartoons when it takes 5 min to load a dang page, expecially when the "main" reason you are loading the page is to read the thread, not look at the avatars and such..
To solve this issue for them I have developed a new template called "subrebel" To select it go to profile, scroll down to the bottom of the page and hit the drop down arrow and select "subrebel" under board style. Then hit "Submit" and presto!! You will be using the quickest loading template known to man kind
"Whats that there??? is it a bird, is it a plane, no... Its SUBREBEL!!!"
ok ok, so I tend to exagerate a lil
It is the fatest template available on storm2k anyways..
For those of you that this is not an issue for just carry on with buiesness as usuall.. No changes have been made to the other templates... They will run exactly as they have been.. Crazy Graphics and all
Thanks,
Chad
