PS if avatars are allowed for everyone please ban Preacher or at least prevent him from having a Bama logo avatar, other wise we'll see that damn Bama logo all day

I like 'em as well, just as long as they stay icon sized and aren't animated. Pictures in the sig lines though...that's another story. Those just blow. That's where the clutter comes from.

I vote YES for avatars. As has been said, people can turn them off in the cp. I also think that limiting them by pixel size and file size is vital. Perhaps if we ever do get a premium membership such limitations could be expanded. Pictures in the sig? No offense, but homemade banners in sigs are my forum peeve.

Although I'm not too fond of avatars since most are annoying as hell. A subtle avatar might be ok, but I doubt most will do that.

I would seriously consider becoming a regular on the Veggie Board if we go the way of Avatars. At least there the topic of "meat sweats" might instill a stampede.
So true..

A 48x48 or 60x60 limit would be nice, and no (or little) animation would help keep the forum looking as professional as it is.. but I'm not sure how hard that would be to enforce.
