Enough already...
Feb. 8th, 2003 10:55 pm*slaps wrists* Stop with the random downloading already!
I don't often go trawling for pics any more, mostly because I find it's a losing battle trying to remember what in hell I already have, but I succumbed this evening mostly because I had nothing better to do. I think I've ended up downloading the bext end of 50-odd images that I'm preeeeetty sure I don't already have but might potentially be dupliactes that I'd forgotten about.
I know I've seen most of them, I'd just not downloaded them before for various reasons.
I'm going to have to re-file a bunch of things though, for sure now. And make Deb and Oscar their own folder cause they're lost in among all the random Hugh.
Couple of things though... just stuff that's bugging me.
Don't edit images just to make your website look *prettier*... like inserting black fuzzy boarders around all the images so they look like they're merging with the background. Don't do it. It's annoying.
Secondly, if your website is on geocities, don't make me download page after page of full-sized images just so I can see if I have them or not. It sucks up your allocated bandwidth, I get booted off the site before I'm done looking, if I wasn't on a broadband connection it would take forever to load and there's a REASON thumbnails were invented. Please use them.
Lastly, Why did Anna Paquin always look so permanently pissed off?
Anyone would think she didn't like the company of her co-stars. ~_^
(And I know you'll get one of those exceeded data transfer messages if you follow that link... see the second half of my random observarions there. It's just plain annoying)
Ahh, for the good old days, when people believed in simple web design cause a 24k modem was the very height of speed...
