Assuming dial-up transfer rates to be 56kbps, that amounts to around, oh, 12 seconds extra download time in the worst case scenario. Allowing for fossilized technology, the total increase in load and processing time wouldn't exceed a minute. And this is assuming you're running DOS or something, and everyone on ZU suddenly gets a maximum sized banner traded for their old one. See what I'm getting at?

Hey, I want you to, every time you click a link on Zu, take a step back from the monitor and wait a minute. Each and every time.
And then, at the end of the day, add up all the youth you've wasted and put it on the mantelpiece for prosperity.
Thing is sir, if we shift the boundary for this sig, then we have to shift the boundary for the next one -- see? Some forums have it far, far worse (To have a sig you need 1,000 posts mininum and it can be more than 70x200 pixels) -- and this is where our forebears chose to draw the line.
We don't see why the rules should change while your sig could, y'know? 'Cause if we let your sig slide, then we'll have to let this other guy's 430 sig, then his brother's 450 sig, and you see where that ends up?
