when you choose an avatar, it is hosted on the tdn server, which we are lucky enough to have donated; same goes for space and bandwidth.

that said, we don't want to impose by allowing the Opinion section to host hundreds of avatars, which would use space and bandwidth.

sorry :P

I think having an avatar also elongates the space for the message and could be a real bothersome thing. I don't think it is relevant. I wouldn't want this board to be all crudded up with lame ass animated pictures of tool stuff. Let's focus on ideas and less on irrelevant cosmetic features...
