    A few people have good ideas, most people have bad ideas, but only a select minority can suggest ideas that are so crap that us mere mortals cannot get our heads around them. Congratulations, Smart_Bomb. You are "special".

    <img src='http://www.evilcarrot.com/bbs/hovar.gif' border='0' alt='user posted image'> should be one of the official smilies.

    OK, so 20 of them isn't an army, but maybe a strike force of hovaring scorpians? I mean, they don't flap, so they are silent <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Before telling me to "ffs" do something, ffs know what you're talking about.

    Do you honestly think IE downloads a seperate copy of the image each time it displays it? <b>NO!</b>

    The image is ALREADY present in the thread. I could post it a THOUSAND times, and the browser would still only download it once. Since it's ALREADY been placed in the thread, any additional posts of it on the same page do NOT cause extra downloads.

    That's not the point. Browsers don't download multiple copies of an image just because it's present more than once on a page. It downloads it once and then displays it multiple times.

    Even if it's on SEPERATE pages, it's been cached by the browser from the previous page.

    Yuh, but still makes the page take longer to load - extra CPU time required to read the image from the cache, format it, and display it.
