Gifs/Memes etc

Any way the excessive use of gifs and/or excessively large picture memes can be limited?

Aside from putting up real pictures, which is great, the excessive use of gifs and unusually large memes just takes up unnecessary bandwidth and slows this site down terribly.

with the flogs putting up pictures in their signature bar for one...

if they reply 10 times then you get 10 x that ridiculous picture...

which usually means 0 to 99.9%of the forum...

how anyone could not see that is beyond me...  Roll Eyes

I 'get' that.  The signature of Agnes for example.  What I am asking is.....what impact does it have, and why?
