GIF images

The gif images above the post box cause huge issues for me sometimes when viewing on my iPad. Really slows everything down. Why can't there just be a drop box like most forums?

No problems with them on my iPad.

What exactly do you mean by huge issues?

I must admit, I'm running a latest spec MacBook Pro and animated GIFs in signatures can cause scrolling of the page to be very jittery. No issues with the GIFs above the post box though.

The text takes ages to catch up after i have written it, also deleting txt from quotes by holding delete can take an age, then it catches up and deletes too much!

Just seems unnecessary to have them all there when they could be in a drop box and speed things up for everyone.

Its running fine now for example but a small amount of the time I have to give up and come back later.
