If I were to vote for anything, Id vote for the removal of avitars. The forum is here to communicate (complain and argue), not to stare at someones random picture they pulled out of google images or drew in photoshop.
I always thought of avatars as a representation of the user posting. Im not posting my real face, since I have a feeling someone would eventually shoot me. Plus, I dont want to stare at eveyone elses ugly faces while trying to read the latest comment. My avitar is that of what seems to be a fairly pissed off older gentleman, taken from flamewarriors. Occasionaly (often) people get the impression that im one angry person, not true. Grumpy and willing to argue something to death is more accurate. Very few other members avitars represent them as a person, but rather some random mildly interesting picture.

exactly... just find your imageblocking software and add:

problem solved; you won't even know when someone has a flashing avatar...
