No public avatars. I don't mind there only being a few in circulation at the mods' discretion.

Seriously, where does one "get" an avatar anyway? Are they just like any other image, hosted somewhere on the web?
Oh, and while the 20th Century membership reqirement is a good idea, might I also make a suggestion that there ALSO be a post requirement, like 5000 or something. Don't want to reward the long-time lurkers, just the "regulars".

You're making it sound like it's some snoody country club we're trying to get in to. Just because I'm not a huge <strike>padder</strike> err...poster doesn't mean I'm not a "regular" or any less of a member here.

I would think 5 years of membership with at least 100 posts.
Of course I am still looking forward to a premium membership and could wait till then. I am willing to pay to annoy my fellow members with an Avatar

I've got to agree with the masses... if you've been here over 5 years, you deserve an avatar! Dispite post count.
So when do I get mine?

It was a happy day when I found this in my User CP:
Avatars really are annoying. But as long as I can turn them off, it might be nice for the oldies at the site.
