It seems that whenever I scroll too far in the standings listings, I'm all the sudden lagged by the computer trying to load dozens of avatars for the agents that I might have talked to once. These avatars serve no visible purpose, and could easily be switched for another icon.
What I propose is to have the corporation logo in the location where the avatar currently displays, and maybe some details about the agent. For instance, one agent would be listed in the current system as:
[avatar] Sihsad Aphuka 10.00 (Superb) (i)
In the new layout I envision, it would appear like this:
[Carthum Conglomerate logo] Sihsad Aphuka L4 Q18 10.00 (Superb) (i)

Sounds like a good way to reduce high-lag loads. Either that, or make NPC portraits cached on your hard drive permanently, instead of temporarily, so you only ever have to download the pic once.

Ideally, I'd love to see this as an option extendable to all characters. Sometimes I'm not as interested in seeing what an avatar looks like as I am in seeing what corp and/or alliance they're in. (And I hate filling my cache with images of goofy neutrals I'm never going to see again just because I wanted to check what corp/alliance they're in)
Edit: Apparently the "support" option unchecked itself.

I was just thinking the exact same thing. I use a mobile internet connection where I pay per MB and that is why I like EVE - it is generally low bandwidth.
Having thosse tiny icons load in that list serves no positive purpose really, and goes against one of the major advantages for EVE.

Yes!
Agent avatars did not use to be there and standings worked much more smoothly. I have absolutely no idea why ccp introduced them.

Good idea for this reason alone.

I could see it being an option for either the corp name or no icon at all...either way, the avatar sucks processor power and should go.

Agreed! Gettig rid of the Avatar for a corp logo seems a bit silly. You would still have the issue of images loading. You don't really need an image next to the agents to know what they are about. |

I've got a better idea, minimize and dont even load or search for the corp standings and the character standings, just the faction...that all. click on the corp or character bar and voila, the info pops up. make it all minimized and dont make it load or look on the server for the information.
Lots of times, if I look at the standings page, I only look to see if my corp is red or blue to him if I'm not too sure. You know, the useful stuff cause I dont really give a damn if he talked to x agent
For the OP: if I understand your explanation with the new "system" you would see the logo, the name and the standings plus the (i) sign. So in other words, more data to load cause now you got the logo to get. If theres an option to get that info and by default the client does not get the info like I explained above, it would be a really good idea.
