Re: Service has never been better

Yeah, I've received an easy 1 1/2 years of free services in the form of refunds for no service or poor service--until they changed the policy to say that if you can connect AT ALL in a 24 hour period, you get NO refund. That's garbage! They must've done that because it is so intermittent around here, and everyone would be asking for full rebates every single month!

If you're referring to mine, I made it with Paint Shop Pro, used a bit of Photo Shop, and Animation Shop. Took me forever one night, starting at midnight, and was done by 9am (? somewhere around there). Team Helix has some very talented people that make them in a snap, but my expertise is not there yet. Did ya know you could animate your avatar with $5 in tool points (minimum), 40x40, 5k limit. Nice of Justin.

pchdude: I like the "PS" part about the upload caps
Yep, I remember getting Comcast's email about how @home was going to cap UL to 128, with the reasoning that most people want download speeds rather than upload speed, and this would, thus, save the bandwidth for customer's preferences. HUH? I game and UL is as important as DL speed. It was a great marketing ploy, but those of us who know anything about it saw it for what it was---nothing but a ploy. Gaming has never been the same since. Hey pch, Dana Point is a nice community. We be neighbors (don't really live in Pasadena, and I do have the same isp as you).

Thanks for the info, I would like animation for mine. $5.00 is a bargain, but software isn't, and all I have is Photo Shop. I don't know much about team helix, but I'm going to take a look now. Good job on your avatar, that's how ideas spread.
