HauteHippie Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 The logo at the top of the page: REPLICA WATCH GROUP.... Ummm, what do you think about making it less conspicuous? It's so big and bold, that it makes it difficult to browse the forums at work!! Maybe change it to just say R.W.G. ? Or tone it down. TRC is not so bold and the old RWG didn't say anything in the banner. Just a thought..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pugwash Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 It's so big and bold, that it makes it difficult to browse the forums at work! The real problem with browsing at work is the [censored]. People with hot babe Avatars and sigs (even though an avatar is supposed to represent you, which means you want to me a girl guys drool over ... hey, I'm not judging!) can cause more problems than text. There are risks inherent with surfing dodgy sites at work. I get away with it because ... um, I'm the guy that monitors the internet. Still, if certain graphics bother you, you can use Firefox with Adblock, like ehtolcad said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exper Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 Admin could setup a "Work" skin, with a new banner such as "Network Support Forum" or "Windows Resolution Centre" with a couple computers instead of watches did that on one of mine and it seems to go down pretty well for those who want to browse at work - all they need to do then is disbale avatars and signatures via the CP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is an excellent solution, by the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
8o8 Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 i use opera which gives me 2 buttons i use often. 1's to turn on gfx or off and the other is author mode which strips all formatting codes on a web page Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonthebhoy Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 Pardon me for being a party pooper but when you are at work are you not supposed to be working? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r11co Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 There is an easier answer - it's called the 'Lo-Fi Version' and it is down there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already use port forwarding over an encrypted tunnel to an external squid server, so they don't have any record of my browsing in the web logs, but this is just for passer bys... I'd prefer the REPLICA WATCH GROUP logo not be so ..... VISIBLE!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
