This graphic takes up about 25 pixels on the side of the screen next to someone's rank.

Nonetheless, it is huge. Quite a few of these are this big.

Shrinking these to a reasonable size would cut load times and decrease bandwidth a lot. If I was not currently way too busy to track all of them down, I'd do it myself.

See? I can make "nice" suggestions. No bannings at all in this one. :)

They should bring back the quick reply box, they kept it for 1 or 2 days before removing it.

byte wise, its only 5.5k.... thats not too bad for the image though.... not much bandwidth is spent on that image.

I changing the smilies is the way to go. The smilies could be set up so that they only appear upon request as a popup box. This would also help out with the problem of half the smilies being cut off (this happens with IE).
