Well, I don't see people as music videos. Perhaps that's part of it.

Avatars are kind of nice in the sense that they make someone quickly recognizable. However, especially on forums like this one, the excess of animated avatars is distracting and the overall effect is counterproductive. I also think it's kind of camp; people trying to look cool by having a couple of pixels suspended below their nickname. I don't like to present myself that way. To each their own.

Don't get me wrong; if you like your avatar, enjoy it. It's nice to have the choice.




I rather like the mix of avatar/no avatar. The fact that you don't have one, but are in a sea of people who do, actually makes you instantly recognizable. I also take in the entire name/avatar complex when looking at a post. So by now, the spelling of your name in all lowercase, with no avatar, is effectively burned into my mind as an image. But by the same token, like you said, these are just pixels on the screen to aid reading comprehension. I know there's a person behind that who has nothing to do with it. Just like I'm not really the stateless fugitive who wrote Treasure of The Sierra Madre and carefully guarded his true identity until death.

I generally have the "view avatar setting off". And I also have the "view signature" setting off also

I prefer my screen real estate to mainly be text. The signatures really take up a lot of space

The three blank lines in your signature.
When I read this comment, they really bother me now.
:lol:
A suggestion.
Put your favorite piece of art down there or some thing. I think those are some of my favorite signatures around here. The people that have something deeply meaningful or educational that they put down in the signature. That always seems really cool to me also.
