No, that has not changed. If you see someone with an animated avatar, it might be one of the "stock" avatars here on the forum. I think there are a few animated ones in there, but those are your only options.

That's what we were talking about. One of them in your signature is fine :)

Right, just leaving the window open doesn't make a difference at all, so don't worry about that :)

For those who haven't gotten the PM yet (it will take a while to be sent to everyone), here it is:

You should still be able to post in that thread. If a thread is very old, there will be a checkbox at the bottom where you have to check and verify that you realize it's an old thread, but after checking it you should be able to reply. We do that because in most cases, there is no reason to reply to old threads and it stops people from inadvertently replying without realizing that it was an old thread, but if you have a reason to reply, then you are able to. If there is no checkbox and you don't understand what I'm saying, let me know.

Good deal for those who picked up on this burner deal a few weeks ago: http://forums.gottadeal.com/showthread.php?t=41693&highlight=benq

For an external drive, I'd suggest something like this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16827106011&ATT=27-106-011&CMP=OTC-pr1c3grabb3r Or you could always find a great deal on the drive itself, and then buy a separate enclosure to make it external.

I'll have to change the wording on that page. That's the default vBulletin message.

Correct. Repost. Closing this one :)

This thread is for any discussion regarding the announcement posted: http://forums.gottadeal.com/announcement.php?f=3 regarding reposts and reporting threads. If you have any questions about this, such as how to search for something, or how to report things to us, post in this thread and we'll get everything worked out :)

That is true, which is why pretty much all deal forums are open to lurkers. The Lounge here is semi-private (around 900 people can see it) and when Black Friday comes, that entire section is going to only be available to members, which really will increase the member count. The way I look at it, even if you make someone register to view threads, if they don't want to post, they won't post anyway, and if they want to post, they would have registered already. We have the bandwidth, etc... to allow lurkers to view things, so there is no reason to change that right now.

Yes it is, and running sites like this is my full-time job. So while there aren't many financial expenses such as hosting to run a site like this, there is a huge time committment.

We make money through commissions from things you guys buy through the site. So if there is a deal at Amazon for example, and someone clicks that link and places an order, we get a small percentage of that back. You pay nothing more for your purchase, we don't have to charge anything or have annoying ads, so everyone wins :)

I think if you look closely at the seller's feedback it would be a good start. If they sell a lot of them and haven't had anyone claim they were fakes, it's a pretty good bet that they are legit. If someone was selling fakes, I would think they would have been caught by now.

On the product page for the sheets, scroll down and it talks about the free heart pillow with $25 purchase. There is an "Add both items to cart" button.

Moved to Deal Discussion

$29.99 Sheet Sets http://images.amazon.com/images/P/B000A1FII8.01._SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg $29.99 each - many size and color combinations to choose from, and they seem to get decent reviews. You will also get a free Mogu Heart Pillow (click the "add both to cart" button) And you can save $25 off a $125 purchase with coupon code MAYSAVER so if you are ordering more than one or other Kitchen/Housewares stuff that's something to consider.

Moving to Deal Finder board as this is not a deal.

Well the $49 upgrade also includes an upgrade to the Intel PRO 3945 WiFi, which they charge $29 for by itself. Don't know if that would make a difference to 99% of the people who would use a laptop like this though. Both the standard WiFi and the upgraded one support .11b/g, so unless you are going to use .11a, there probably isn't a reason.
