why are there so many people here (looks at all the newbies) that dont have avatars? it's driving me nuts! i actually look at the avatar to identify someone, and when i see no avatar, i think "Mouse"!

NO ONE has the right to be avatarless, execpt mouse, cause he's cool, so a message to all these avatarless "Newbies", get an avatar...NOW...please...thanx

Has anyone noticed that Rich's avatar looks like the Borg have captured Martin Sheen, or is it my weird imagination

I've uploaded it again, but I suspect the picture is being rescaled.

Rich's avatar is the net-standard (TM) borg-type administrator. Personally I would never go with an empowering one like that, hence my avatar is a complete muppet.

Is there some story behind Mouse' avatarlessness, because I'm really curious about it.

Oh, and I get really pissed every time I see those Yoda avatars.

I hope you're not calling me a newbie ...

r_kabouter-> Yeah. My webhost went down. I could host an avatar on Jimmy's server now, but I kind of like being without one. Then again it is causing people undue pain. So I guess I'll find something.

Yeah, you could start a flame war with that, injuring tux like that. I should beat you senseless with my red hat (very bad joke)
