Avant Browser has the best feature ever

[DS1]

Selective Image/AD blocking.

This means I right click on YOUR sig pics I find too big, too annoying, too anything I want to call it - right-click add to block list and it's gone forever.

So now I can enjoy ~some~ of your sigs, but no more blue dogs that take up 80% of my viewing area, no more 500k animated gifs, no more spastic MC Hammer.

Ahhh *tiptoeing through the threads*

[DS1]

1. ...including Grovelbot

:evilgrin:

[kick-ass-bob]

2. sig hater.

[DS1]

4. I see that!

:D

[Mutley]

3. How 'bout my sig?

I actually de-cluttered it a few days ago. Is it a little less annoying now?

[DS1]

6. That banana is soooo history

*click*

[Mutley]

10. Hey, now!

It's commander Cuckoo Bananas!

[DS1]

12. I see the link

[Mutley]

20. .

:P

5. You mean no more bear running pyschotically?

[DS1]

7. Nah, I kinda like the bear, he looks like he has a purpose

:-)

[meegbear]

22. Thanks!

:-)

[DS1]

27. and he only runs psychotically on a Mac running OS9

Now he just looks like he's off to whoop some ass.

[meegbear]

30. As he should!

[kick-ass-bob]

8. does it leave the "alt"?

Or just make it a big empty space?
What if it's a link? (like grovelbot)

[DS1]

9. It's just gone

Doesn't even bother to load the image and then hide it, as soon as it comes across an 'img' tag with an address of a blocked image, it skips the entire tag

It can block entire servers, too.

11. That's One Of My Favorite Features Of Avant Browser Too...

... and that's EXACTLY how I use it here at DU.

Animated gifs... GONE!
Huge signature graphics... GONE!
Disturbing sigline imagies... GONE!

I also love their shortcut alias feature. I just type "du" in the address line and have Avant Browser automatically load the discussion forum lobby.
