Haters are going to hate...avatar loathing.
« on: May 06, 2022, 01:04:07 AM »
I think I can "get away" with this topic here.  Whose GBO avatar do you loath? 

Personally, the "Unknown Comic", my own, can be sarcastic and antagonizing.  It depends on the day though.  Some days I'm "more sarcastic" than others and it smirks, sort of like a "raspberry".

I've seen others that "gave me pause", mostly those making "fun" of an abnormality (or some such), though I cannot think which board(s) and which avatars standout.

I'll get back to you on that if this thread starts rolling...or GB doesn't delete it.  Be gentle in criticism...if that is possible.

I can't say as I have a problem with any avatar...except for the word.."avatar" itself.

  Most of the pictures reflect either occupation, forum name, hobby or something dear the poster.

  i change my avatar on a fairly regular basis....purely a result of ennui with same on my part.

I was a big fan of the unknown comic and the gong show. ;D

I pay no attention to avatars, sig lines, etc.

I've had my bug for at least 20 years.

LOL, I'm afraid if I removed mine I'd never get it back.

I liked Conan the Librarian’s avatar.

My settings block all avatars, I don't need the required bandwidth slowing things down.

I've seen avatars that when they appeared I found annoying, but it didn't really have anything to do with the actual avatar.  ;D

Dee already has the only one I would consider so I will continue without.
