In fact, damn X for displaying a burger in 100x100 since every.single.time I see his avatar, I feel this compulsion to go to Hardee's.
What makes it WORSE is that there are NO Hardee's anywhere near me.
DAMN YOU, X!

If Geoff doesn't have a problem with 'em, as I said before, I have no problem with avatars. And, again, those that do can shut 'em down in the User CP. Now that we have options available to us, don't be so damn lazy.
Also, if you want to reduce clutter, how 'bout limiting the appearance of your sig to ONE post per thread? IIRC, I think WhoGirl mentioned this before the convert...
HOWEVER, if PICS are allowed in our sigs...well, i'll just have to email Geoff to cancel my membership...

I’m suddenly, VERY hungry. 
Truth be told, twikoff proposed the idea a looooooong time ago.

If we do avatars, 100X100 seems to be a more reasonable size in order to make out what the hell it even is.

actually they're firearms related boards where I'd say most of the people are over 40, and even the people under 40 are probably 95% over 21

oh wait..

I think I have the perfect avatar for those who don't like them. see below:
here it is: -----> . <------- well, there it was. I think it fits within the size limit too.
would that be ok or is that just too overpowering?
seriously though, I see nothing wrong with avatars at 100 x 100. I already have mine planned if we get to use animated ones.
here is a quick look:
what?...you don't like my giant dancing banana?

I think 50 is too small, 100 is too large. However, I HATE square ones. I think they need to be wide 
Overall, while I do really like them, I know the problems they would cause, so in the end, I am pretty indifferent.

Another forum I go to just recently added avatars. 80x80 is their max size and they've don't allow gifs- thus no annoying animations to distract. And they also offer users the option to not to view avatars, so if someone is REALLY offended by them they don't have to see them.
I never was a big fan of Avatars, but implemented this way I was pleasantly surprised. My 2 cents.
