Would it be possible for Rootsweb to specify the size attributes when they
add their banners to free pages?

Site inspector always picks up on the fact that they are missing, and since
the two banners together run almost 10,000 bytes, this has an impact on page
load time. I've tried to keep my home page as pared down as possible so it
will load quickly, so 10,000 bytes is over 20% of my page.

As a Rootsweb Plus sponsor, I could have a page without the banners, but I
believe in what Rootsweb is doing and want to support it. I just wondered
if there was a "better way".

Also, would adding the size attribute to the counter create a problem?
