YouTube Tip: Wait for the background to load before inviting a friend

UPDATE: I think YouTube fixed this. I have to verify.

YouTube Tips 13 - Wait for the background to load before inviting a friend

Now, in YouTube, it's possible to go to someone's channel, click "Add as friend" and then have the screen refresh back to the top with nothing having happened.

Why does it do that? Because it's still loading all the images on the page and it won't respond to the invite request properly until it's done loading. This could be video icons, but it is usually a background image (or animated gif) that is a large file size. So that's a reason to make sure your background isn't a large file size. =^)

Once it's done loading all the images on the page (your browser's status bar on the bottom of the screen should indicate this), you can add the person as a friend.
