Avatars will not be a feature of this board. They junk everything up, increase page download times, and make things look unprofessional IMO. Thanks for the suggestion though.
This posers request for avatars reminds me of the prediliction some juveniles have for "handles" such as those used by CB radio enthusiasts (remember them) -" Rubber Duck to squirrell" etc. And the sad people that ring the radio stations "Rubber Duck says it's raining in Houston - and now the weather for the rest of the week...." Maybe it fills a corner in their empty lives, a few minutes of fame maybe. Or perhaps they think the girls rate avatars and call signs as macho ? No need to add your comments fellahs, since I don't care ; and I suspect, neither do you Dont reply Aphid...I have you on my ignore list of one.
