No, not that kind.

So where is your avatar from? Care to share what avatars you use, or discuss avatars in general?

So where is your user picture from? Care to share what pics you use on other forums? (I know we used to have a thread about this, but it seems it was lost in The Great Crash.)

My current avatar, and all my previous avatars, are from Gunnerkrigg Court. So it's probably safe to assume that all my future avatars will be from there as well.

Is it over 100x100? Manually resizing it to be under will lower the file size, and will probably give better quality than the auto-resize.

I guess it is.

I just cropped it to be just the car and it's still 44kb. I'll try resizing it manually.

EDIT: Resized to 100 pixels wide and it's only 7.05 kb! Yahoo! Time to put it on my profile.

EDIT2: So, how do I look?

Good, it finally made it...

I changed my location, title and sig to match.

It is possible to delete avatars from your "Switch avatar" list?

They delete themselves if you don't use them for...was it ninety days? Otherwise no.

I guess it is.

I have forty avatars. That's one avatar for every day of the Great Flood.

None of my avatars have deleted themselves, even ones I haven't used in months.

Wicked223: I just noticed that you call your avatar Arf, and claim to be from Al-Hazred, Midchilda.

Also, Matrix beat me to invoking that meme./

The coolest thing is that each of those flowers blossom into little fairies. I think that's really really awesome.

There's no need to delete avatars. Just ignore them on the list.

I purposefully choose avatars that look kind of aggressive so that people who see me arguing a lot will instinctively become annoyed at seeing my avatar over and over again coupled to my aggressively-arguing posts.

Clever. Your sig probably helps too.

And the title. It portrays agressiveness.
