And there's always the option to turn them off, if speed constraints are effecting you.

thanks Nick, you are right and there are also non OSO options in windows if you just want to read text on a dial up situation.

Everyone is picture crazy, every thread has pictures. They don't want to use the photos section for pictures. So, the members are creating some of the problem and the battle is impossible to fight on slow speed connections.

Even Starbucks , airports, and Panera Bread offer high speed wireless internet for free and thats only to name a few.
Totally understood.

I turned the pics off but it didn't help much after a while.

I was kind of making an observation I guess.

I have access to high speed some of the time and dial up others. There's a huge difference. I'm sure that less and less people will be affected as more move to high speed.
