Re: Stupid Avatar Rule!!

Who cares if you don't like the rule. You're not a huge influence here, so your opinion doesn't make any difference to the rules.

Just suck it up and be happy that you can still keep your animated avatar.

Just don't stare at Rex's avatar too long.
You'll wake up owning a used Beetle, Smart Car, and a couple of Toyotas.

That's a nice Dodge Ram in your driveway.
I'm guessing a '78 or 79, right?

Re: Stupid Avatar Rule!!

I thought I'd bring this back since I just made myself a little animated avatar of 150x116 and 244KB, perfect for the maximum file size requirements.

I don't think animated avs are distracting, seizure inducing nor too large to download as they meet the standard image requirements.

Puuuuuhhhhhwwweeeeeeeeze can we have animated avatars?

Re: Stupid Avatar Rule!!

I never understood the need for flashy avatars and long winded signatures. The signatures just get in the way of a post.

It's self expression, it represents the user. Not everything has to be cut-n-dry business.
