    i've been paying attention to the sigs and i'm starting to realize that it does slow down my IE when i try to scroll down the page. it's the really super-duty one's that i notice to most, they're like 2 animations in one.

    A couple words from a computer expert:

    It's not the connection speed that causes lag while scrolling. Once your browser downloads the images, usually the first couple seconds of opening a page, connection doesn't matter. What counts is how fast the computer is able to process all the graphics and play the animation. A brand new super fast computer on 56k can have no lag while a 5 year old piece of crap computer on cable/dsl will have tons of lag.


    And being on a fast computer with cable, I notice no lag :D

    Oh really? I didn't think it would have anything to do with processor speed or anything like that.

    Hail #### computers!
