Mostly, personally, I think it's because they add little value aside from the "Cool" factor, but it's then just something additional for us to police and have to worry about ;) Gads, Chill! Sometimes I feel a migraine or a seizure coming on after just reading some of the posts here! lol . (And I don't say: 'lol' very often . ) Let's not let the active avatars get started - and besides I think it was a band-width problem and some people are on dial-up and that the pages take too long to load now anyway . And for all other reasons - can you even imagine the moving avatar that Metla would have? I rest my case . * * there is no 'lol' there . |

| 1151807 | 2010-11-10 07:56:00 | They would look more awesome and i would be able to use the animated version of my Current avatar But then I may have to look at an animated Benny Hill. I would prefer he remains dead.:cool: |

| 1151808 | 2010-11-10 08:48:00 | Why would i have an animated benny hill? I would rather have an animated avatar of the SLADE logo, that i currently have. |

It's only my opinion based on your previous posts regarding Benny Hill along with Yakkety Sax. On the other hand Slade has not been mentioned often before by you. |

| 1151811 | 2010-11-10 13:40:00 | It'd be nice if vBulletin had the option to disable animated avatars (showing static version instead), on a per-user basis, much like the disable all avatar option now. Keeps both camps happy I guess. Yes, I would make an animated avatar. No, it wouldn't be speedy's. Ooooh, that's got me thinking, maybe I could cajoule siggy into doing avatars as well as sigs... maybe... |

| 1151812 | 2010-11-10 22:10:00 | Imo avatars are just like post counts - pointless. Do you come to these forums to see what pictures people have next to their names? No. I could understand on maybe a car forum, or picture sigs in a gaming forum, but not here. Most animated ones are just old and not funny anymore. I do not want to see the humping stormtrooper more than I already have. OR the fat kid. |

| 1151813 | 2010-11-11 00:33:00 | My thoughts exactly, though I feel that a static avatar can help to add easy recognition or "branding" to a persons posts. | Chilling_Silence (9) | ||
