Seeing a lot of members do not have Avatars.
Why is that?

It isn't hard to do. Just go to the top right hand corner of this page and hover the cursor above your name. Then click on 'Avatar'. Window will pop open and then merely hit select. Any image you have/like in your photo files that is larger than 200x200 pixels will work, and then click 'okay'. Then, close.

Lets see how inventive and/or creative you can get. I chose a picture of my dog, a Dutch Shepherd. But it can be anything that you can find on the internet and save to your photo files that says something distinct about you. I chose the picture because I appreciate my dog, as she is both brilliant and funny; but can be dead serious too.

Perhaps you might explain why you chose the Avatar you have?
Like to hear it.

This could get interesting and even pretty funny!
No porn; please.

I can't make mine small enough to fit the window...shows up fine on the Avatar window page. However the 2 windows are not the same size...So it crops the image...

My previous avatar was a snapshot I took on top of an eastern Tennessee mountain. I found a local gravel road. It's where I want to live soon. The present avatar shows a boy holding some kind of missile launcher and is gun advocates take on the word,'Gun Control'. The boy looks a lot like I did as a boy and I thought I'd like to display it for a while. Also,I've taken an interest in guns again in that I recently purchased a Sig Sauer P232 and an EAA Tanfoglio Appeal bullpup carbine and am planning on a Colt M4 OPS 22LR made by Walther and licensed by Colt.

Most of all,the boy with the launcher pic is a poke in the eye of gun haters everywhere. :D

I notice a lot of members are changing their names too. New site new identity? What gives? hey, it feels like we've become the Cleveland Browns.
 
I'm working on enabling animated gif functionality for avatars. Just have a bit of configuration to do...
