Not having avatars, getting popular?

Post by Timon/Pumbaa fan »

For some reason I have been studying the members at UD and I realized that some of UD's most contributed members are starting to have no avatars next their name. I mean look at some of the members who currently have no avatars:
Loomis
Wonderlicious
Just Myself
Jake Lipson
Dan05

It's nothing serious, but I think it's interesting how at one point there was like 8 threads asking/talking about avatars. Now alot of people just don't have them. Anyone else notice?

Well, being avatarless, I have noticed. :D

The reason I currently have no avatar is because of my signature. I recently put an image in my signature, and I thought that to be respectful to Luke's ever vanishing bandwith, I would delete my avatar. Once I am through with the image in my siggy, the avatar may come back.

Oh, and Jake now has an avatar of Rex the dinosaur (is that the right name? :scratch:) from Toy Story.

Nice thinking Wondy :thumb:

Seems a good idea, avatar or image-signature
not as a rule, but as an option to keep bandwith....but I think I´ll have just my avatar n_n

I noticed that too! It was like..."WOW!" :p

Wonder Joe's so nice! :thumb:

I think the reason for them being avatar-less is not *finding* the right avatar.
Haha, that's what I'd do..sometimes. :)

An avatar is the image that appears under your username.
