Avatars
- Thread starter notenufmuff
- Start date
This has been answered before - Avatars are not an option for this board given the high bandwidth consumption.
If we decide to enable them they will be restricted to advertisers and those who have sent a donation to TERB.

Re: For us non-tech types....
They're the animated symbols some members used to have below their post count.

Donations?
Fred Z - I have no reason to advertise, and I was ignorant enough to overlook the possibility of donations. I've benefited from your board here though. Have you made it known you accept donations? Maybe if you post a sticky that you accept donations and/or even have some identified benefits (for example: a discount with certain advertisers would benefit your members and most likely increase business with your advertisers) to making a donation it would help your cause, which I assume would help this board become even better than it is. This may set you up for partiality comments though. Just some thoughts....

I would be willing to contribute via a charity barbecue or something like that. Aside from avatars, I know that running this site ain't free.
Re: Donations?
Discount from our advertisers ? lol
Interesting idea but that could get me into tricky legal territory.
Seriously, you can always PM me if you are interested in helping with site upkeep costs.
