I'm assuming that it's the .gif below which I have graciously delivered for those at work or on dial up.

Edit: Gif removed, but here's a link to the image:

God that had to hurt. This guy showed a lot of smarts by turning his body like that before it hit the ground. Hard to believe he walked away from that one!

Chris... please don't post such ridiculously large animated gif's. Members aren't allowed to... neither are staff. That file is 1.8MB... translation... hours upon hours for a dialup user... literally. That's just ridiculous and not even remotely neccessary. Post a link if you must but do NOT post these antiquated, 10-year-old-technology, gifs.

Not to mention that unless you have permission from the source, you're sucking the life out of someone's bandwidth... granted it's their own stupid fault for making such a ridiculous file, but nevertheless, leaching material is leaching material.

The clip on YouTube is more encompassing anyway... let's leave it at that.

And if ANYONE wants to post an animated gif of ANY type, then please ask me first, and don't be upset when I say no. :twisted:

Animated gifs are thankfully a dead internet trend... let's keep it that way. Please and thanks.

Bad fall, Good Landing, Horrible X-Game event. It's a wonder somebody hadn't already done that.

Yeah I have high speed internet, but unlike some of you, I think about someone other than myself. I know that people log in to this site from ALMOST 100 different countries every month - (I TAKE A LOT OF PRIDE IN THAT ACTUALLY) - a lot of them don't have high speed according to server stats.

Not to mention that a lot of them are U.S. military stationed overseas somewhere. I guess I should just dismiss their participation due to the short-sightedness of others?

Forgive me if I don't really care too much about not having animated gifs (antiquated technology) in favor of making the message boards, more enjoyable for the masses.

Besides, I'm of the opinion that a message board is for sharing thoughts and opinions, NOT animated clips of X Games whipe outs. If you disagree... options are only ever a click away.

Here's a list of July visitors for those interested in such things:

United States
Canada
Great Britain
Russian Federation
Australia
Japan

Mongolia
Slovak Republic
Saudi Arabia
Macedonia
Estonia
Pakistan
Bermuda
Djibouti
Jamaica
Cameroon
Tunisia
Mauritius

Zimbabwe

You go ahead and tell them all that they should be completely ignored so that you don't have to click on a YouTube link to see a clip of the X games.

I'll stick to what got me here thanks... and it certainly wasn't by thinking about what I personally did or didn't have...

Keep up the good work, BH. . .
