Will using The GIMP for emulations decrease icon quality?
No.

Is my sig too large?
Scroll? :P

It looks okay on my screen.


BTW, this is getting reallllllly annoying:
"Warning - while you were reading 4 new replies have been posted. You may wish to review your post."

Personally, I find that warning to be very helpful. it gives you the chance to view replies that were made while you were posting, which in turn allows you to determine whether you a) want to continue on, b) want to change your post in some way, or c) want to omit your post altogether. I get annoyed when other people have posted while I was making my post, making my post appear either out of place or totally unrelated.

What happens with a school full of rich snobs? :huh:

It really drives you insane. Basically, the kids run the families, get whatever the hell they want, and do whatever they want. And these kids are coming from families who literally have several millions of dollars.

its not anything as bad as gil mentioned it, basically because he hasn't been to a school with rich snobs. alamo heights is the place for rich snobs, nice houses all around...every rich kid complaining that their car is only a year old and want another one. they have discipline, yes. just aren't satisfied with what the got, and don't think about those who can't even afford those kind of things.

I never dealt with rich folks, because I lived in a middle class area. And its probably a good thing too, because I really don't like rich people. It seems their number one goal in life is to brag about what they have and how much it cost, and that really rubs me the wrong way.

Very interesting. I just noticed that we currently have a guest from The Netherlands. I had no idea the site had such a worldwide audience!  :blink:

Wow, Kyle you're an admin and didnt know that? :P
I'm an admin and I don't know alot of things. :P

Also, I know the Notification thing helps to prevent duplicate posts. But like if I know I am posting something that is totally unrelated or that I know wont clash with other posts, it gets annoying.

But in the grand scheme of things I think we post in response to other posts far more often than we post something totally unrelated.
