Award banners and stupid dial up connections Posted by P. Susan Erhart November 24, 2005 - 9:13:03 Topic ID# 6363
Hi all.
Happy was I to receive my email this morning saying the banners are
ready. clicked on the link did I and then wandered out of the room to
wait for all the pics on the page containing my humble award to load.
And alas! when I returned, i had half a page with little red x's as
often happens when a page has too many graphics for my wee silly
connection to handle. Is there another way to access the banners?
Perhaps someone with a more noble connection could email mine to me?

Thanks in advance!
Susan aka Beethoven's 7th

Hi guys,

I've emailed Susan her banners offlist. If there's anyone else out there
who's having trouble let me know.

One option -- if you see the little red x's -- on most browsers if you
right-click on those (or ctrl-click on a Mac) you have an option to view or
download that picture. It downloads that graphic before all the others on
the page.

Susan,

If you go to the MEFA2005 site (http://gabrielle.sytes.net/MEFA2005)
and look at 'Story Results' or 'Author Results', there's a link for
'Show Banners'.

With this page, you only see one category's worth of results (and
banners) at a time, which should be much better for dialup.

If you want, you can even choose only one subcategory at a time.

Once you click the 'Show Banners' link, they will keep showing up for
new categories until you go off to some other page or click 'Hide
Banners'.

Hope this helps.

Anthony
