It's just you. In actuality the whole board's been down for three months and you are just dreaming.

This also means that you aren't really married to Mary-Ann, the nymphomaniacal blonde cheerleader with three boobies.

No, they aren't. Those pics you see under people names are just dreams..dreams..dreams...

And you still have that one Azazel? I wondered if you had..wait, what have I done?

Ming or DanS or somebody-who-knows-what-they're=talking-about explained it. He said that the avatars are omitted when the server starts to become overtaxed by heavy usage, and they return when things slow down.

I was thinking about changing my avatar back to the Tom of Finland one I had a long time ago, or another new one I have not had before.

Most of the avatars have returned unharmed, but poor Siro's has aged horribly !?!

sort of reminds me of The Portrait of Dorian Gray...

I'm glad avatars are back. But I won't have an avatar until I have 500 posts. When I get there I'll use this.

My avatar goes so well with the SMAC theme that it's a shame to change it.

Spiff: I found it around the internet. Apparently, it's art for some sort of a "Magic: the Gathering" card.
