Indeed, I was talking about your avatar. I find it particularly disturbing. Matthew has much more taste

 Cry

Can I change my avatar back to this?

There are plenty of ways for you to block the images yourself, why should it be forced on everyone?

please do so! this will just turn more users against animated avatars...

btw, is it offtopic to mention that I do not like ad hominem attacks?
you might not like Bruce Wagner, it is not a reason to attack him that way.

I admit that on slower, garbage computers, an animated GIF is quite a problem.

It doesn't serve much of a purpose on a forum intended for research and discussion either.

But as long as avatar images are allowed, I think animated GIFs should be allowed.

If you would like to remove animated GIFs from your view only though,



Also, thank you for making me smile since I know you're talking about me.  Grin

They are distracting and ridiculous., but telling people what to do is annoying as well.
