Avatar Speeds

Recommended Posts

I use several different computers on several different connections each day. Each different computer show avatars (such as George' wild cat) at different speeds, home laptop it is running fast, office desktop it is in slow motion etc etc. Is this due to the speed of the internet connection? or the speed of the pc's processor?

Just curious.

Most likely the video card and the cpu would be 2nd. Once it's loaded from the Internet the Internet is no longer involved and strictly the computer displaying. You can test it by right clicking on the avatar and "save image as" then preview it in an image program.

Also FireFox and IE render the avatars with different speed.

Nice observation George, didn't notice it before. Put IE and FF side by side and your cheetah is much faster in FF. Saving it to a file and viewing the speed is about 1/2 way between the motion in FF to that in IE.

Looking at it in Adobe Image Ready, it shows 32 frames at 20mSec delay per frame giving 640msec refresh time, which seems about right in FF.
