If everyone's using avatar randomization, then there's nothing special about it anymore. In the end, it'll be guys like me who use just one avatar at a time who'll become the minority.
Ever heard of "sharing the wealth"? Besides, it's something cool I made, and I like to think people like the stuff I make. And the easiest way to check this is to see how many people are using it. :P

Is this the new form of E-[ray splasher]/tits comparison these days? >_>
When have I ever spoken to the contrary? Besides, it's not like anybody can make a tightly themed set like mine and get to the insane amounts I have overnight. :P

Also, isn't the whole randomization a strain for the server?
Not really. My script is extremely optimized, and only does two file accesses: executing the randomization script, and picking/outputting an image from the pool. Since the image pool is kept as a data count by the server, there's little (if any) strain when counting the files. :)

its for folks who change their avatars every  week cuz they have so many pics they want to have as avatars. that way they can have them ALL as avatars.

Wait a minute, didn't you use a Saber rotator a while back?  I miss that rotator too.  A lot of kick ass art in there!

Flame

yknow, rotators are maing the caption the previous avatar game really difficult XD

No, not really. I've seen everyone have captioned the (current displayed) avatars just fine. ^^

Yep, just add "The previous/current avatar is about," and then'll be fine. I do it too. ^^

One mention of LEGENDS and everyone goes batshit.  :\

Yep, every time when someone mentions that game people get energized for an apparent reason whatsoever. It's like this everywhere else, trust me.

It got really messy to find my sprite and comic topic, so it's in my sig.

It's as simple as grabbing a screen of the avatar you want to caption. Or even better, go to the owner's gallery and link to that specific entry. :P

I think it makes it more fun.  You can look at the person's gallery, or not, and try to guess what avatar said person was captioning.

Huh?
It's showing just fine Nobo.
It doesn't for me... It shows up for like half a second and then disappears.

Dr. Wily II

Hmm...
Sometimes the server can get pretty busy.
So, if it's still like this a few hours from now, then...

QuoteHi there,

Thank you for hosting your website with us for free!

Every free hosting account has a monthly bandwidth or CPU limit to prevent a single website from consuming to much server resource.  You can check your monthly bandwidth or CPU usage in the statistics module in your VistaPanel.

Your website has just reached the bandwidth or CPU limit provided with your free hosting account.  We suggest this is due to the success of your website and we acknowledge your website is very popular!

Unfortunately we need to disable accounts that reach their hosting quotas, which unfortunately has meant your site has had to become suspended.

Your monthly bandwidth or CPU quota will be automatically reset on the 1st of each month and your website will then be accessible again.

We highly suggest you should upgrade to a premium account, ran on faster servers than free hosting with many more features. It has no CPU limits and much larger bandwidth limits, ideal for your high usage website!  You get hundreds of extra features and we give away a free domain name with every order.

I give up.

One way to solve that? Standardize the size of your avatars, and turn them all into low-size files (JPG or GIF; PNG, if the image has lots of colors, will have a hefty size). That should solve your problem.

Flame

theyre all Jpeg... and most of them are 100 by 100...

Shiki Tohno

At how many other places are you using the avatars as well? And I said ALL of them, not just "most".

Flame

well, about... 3 other places...
also, I say Most because theres about 2 or 3 pics that are a larger size.
