I have a service that speeds up dialup page loading. It freezes animated GIFs, so I don't see those motion effects unless I refresh the picture.

Unfortunately, three of those animated emoticons have somehow sneaked through the barrier and are goggling around on the left there. Of the aviators, Bloomfield's makes me seasick even without animation. None of the other aviators bothers me without animation.

I wish there were a way to stop the animation of those emoticons. They give me the heebie jeebies. On the other hand, life must be pretty good if that's all I have to complain about.

Best wishes,
Jerry

I'm supposed to be one of those people who is prone to seizures from spinning, flashing and bright lights, but I have tried to give myself seizures with bright flashing video games before and it never worked. I like everybody's avatars for some reason or another.

PS..don't ever try to give yourself seizures unless you're insane.

Except, apparently your own given the frequency with which it changes. What's it been 4 in the last week?

Bloomfield's is my pick definately. But for some reason it's also my favorite :o

I liked Nano's old avatar better than his new one. :)

Rough at sea? I actually really like Nanohedron's avatar. The only connection to "seasick" might be it makes me long to be out on the deep blue...on my way to Central, or So. Americay, land of the Incas or Aztecs. :)

BTW, has anyone noticed that Zub's square puzzle creates black dots where the white ones are suppose to be (periphery), as you move your eyes across it.

Tell us something.: Been a fluter, citternist, and uilleann piper; committed now to the way of the harp.

Oh, yeah: also a mod here, not a spammer. A matter of opinion, perhaps.

Gee, guys, I'm both flattered and chagrined. If the Sun King motif is a real problem, please contact me.

Best,

I think it was just a joke...hard to tell sometimes. People here have really pretty really good avatars. There are no rules that say you must have a certain type or you must have only one (that I know of)...so I don't think you should change it unless you want to. Just my $0.02.

Tell us something.: I've been with Chiff and Fipple since shortly after I bought my first low D. I've learned loads from this community, and I intend to continue to learn and contribute. Many thanks to Dale and everyone who makes this site happen.
