maybe a bit smaller than 166kb may help
or is that an xxl size, with fries? ;-)

Great pic though, so Im wooing it anyways :-)

No, the size only stands for the philosophical meaning
We have sort of an inferiority complex, us Swissies.

So I made it big.

There you go
It is smaller :-)

Why do we always have to make it smaller?... *sobs*

he he , mainly to help those less fortunate than ourselves
those without broadband - those who have VERY heavy restrictions on bandwitdh etc, every time large filesizes crop up and get refreshed,
it basically bends over the internet bandwidth and takes it hard from behind.
smaller filesizes help reduce this, ensuring peace, and loving harmony on teh board

Alright, sorry for the offence
I won't do it again... I promise... just don't hit me...

Seriously, I did not think, but will do in the future.

I didn't make it heavy in purpose.
