There seem to be alot of red x's these days so I thought I would mention one easy way to get an avatar. Different sites seem to have different ways to access the avatars but this one worked best for me.

Go to www.gamespy.com/avatars

Find the avatar you want and just place(don't click) the arrow on it to get its number then type in the appropriate space in your profile

www.gamespy.com/avatars/
-the avatar's code comes right after that last slash
Submit and and voila a nice face to go with the name so to speak. I find it helps me to remember people better and it's a fun form of expression. Hope this helps some of you out there.

I just cut up a photo I took once. Those monkey are from an endangered species found only on Zanzibar. There are called Red Colobus Monkeys, and only about 600 or so still exist.

Actually, she does look a bit like you, only with longer and lighter hair. You're prettier, though. Very Happy

Thanks nomadder,
I�d like it to be less wide so it doesn�t mess with the board layout though.
It�s a Chameleon, a Jackson Chameleon, I used to have a few of em in my past life, that one in the avatar isn�t one of em though. They eat bugs with their tongue, it�s twice as long as their body� Shocked ...
