2nd Annual Netscape Avatars Awards
This page is in no way affiliated with NS and does not reflect.......aw screw it you know what I mean.
What is a Netscape Avatar? |
It is the little image that accompanies your profile across Netscape. Like when you post a story or comment it is placed next to your name. It does not matter the format or size you upload because it will be scaled to Size 33x 45 converted to png format after you upload. So that nice 2200x2200 pixel image you spent hours perfecting will be made smaller and possibly turn out like a black dot. If you change your avatar expect for it to take at least 30 minutes to propagate across Netscape. |

Statement made with Avatars:
shane_coffey2 Guess blog sites are out or maybe he needs to replace the adds with Netscape logos and stickers of CK and Jason. Any way he got out. But by looking at his profile it was by choice and the folks have left the door open for him to come back.
Gmailer. He had his avatar set as a picture of CK upside down but someone changed it...He did not change it...We are lifting the finger prints now.
DygitalJoe Ah yes and the ever present IE hater. But the bio says tech support.....guess what he is supporting.

-How to break a 1000 in 2 months. You could do it much faster.
-Tools to speed Contributing fast and tools to scoop the latest stories. No I don't use Yahoo's news site and watch the stories pop in.
-Learn to use Spelling and grammar checker
-Purchase a PC (mine is currently a 486 dx4). Anyone willing to help out? I'd like a laptop.
