How do you do that?
Under the User Control Panel, go to Board Preferences, Edit Display Options, and turn off "Display Avatars".

Every now and again, I turn avatars back on, but it takes about a minute before I am reminded that I find them super distracting.
Crap! If I'd known that I wouldn't have unfriended cholchar.

I think it's kind of funny that bluebutton hides avatars, and has an avatar. hee hee
I worship the Blue Devil!

At some point OY there was a discussion about avatars and some people like me didn't care for them, but other people REALLY were into them and found that it helped them keep track of who said what. That's my basic rationale for having an avatar. I agree that it's ironic that you can have an avatar while choosing to never see them yourself. :D (I also don't turn on signatures <ducks>)

Hope y'all are enjoying brunchgate!!

Perhaps someone who posts OY might want the avatar? :D

I'd like to see someone who posts OY use my 'flipping the bird' avater.

Now if colchar had a snake as an avatar, I would be breaking my laptop screen.

Not in a million years, I hate the freakin' things.

And yet you have one yourself...

The bug doesn't bother me but since you've gone back to Randy Rhodes...well, whatever trips your trigger, pal.
As for myself, I'm ready to change at a moment's notice.
