go for it -- we need more green avatars!
Errrr, I don't want to appear lewd, but it is not very clear from the small picture what exactly that rat is doing behind that wall. not sure if it is clear that it is a maze either..
Dag, have you ever seen the image jpin made for me? A duck performing fellatio on a playtypus.
Very realistic, and, might I add, quite exciting.
Only if you are the platypus...
The duck seems to be enjoying itself, osso, but thanks for the input.
oh i see! now your avatar makes more sense!
Hey, this isn't the insult thread.
We're just having a nice, pleasant conversation here.
I would ask to see it Gus, but am afraid it says more about me than I care to give away...:-)
I'll show it to you some time, willow, when there's not so many people around.
we'll all be very quiet, just lurking in the shadows. you won't even know we're there. don't be shy!

I tried adapting
this picture here into an avatar, just by making it smaller - but it becomes impossible to see what it actually is if you bring it back to 90 pixels wide. I tried using only a smaller selection of the picture, and then upping the contrast, for example, but none of that helped. You seem to be highly experted in this stuff though - do you see any way in which you could make it fit?
Since we got off on the wrong foot, maybe this will appease you
16kb is 10 kb too much... 6 kb max.
I'm getting ready to watch the Cowboys destroy the Packers.
How about you, Bill?
Guess the duck would be having a good time. Hard to picture though, need that avatar for clarity.
On the maze avatar, I saw the original bigger view of rat in maze so I am probably biased in thinking the avatar sized one is clear.
I looked up some other maze photos.. nothing I saw was as expressive of frustration at the maze trap.
But this reminded me of the old movie that I never saw but read about, Woman in the Dunes. Wondering if there are any pictures of a man trying to scramble up a dune...

Something like that... just rearrange the words. Weren't you watching last week? :wink:
Woman in the Dunes Nice review in this Amazon link..
Not a useful avatar image on the video cover, but the guy's entrapment is interesting.

This one's the right size.
Hmm - I think it clear, too - but I posted the original - so iam biased too.
BTW - many screens are bigger than mine - people's avatars are always clearer from work than here at home.
Hey Gus, how bout that destruction, eh?
The Packers haven't looked bad over the last couple of weeks, Bill.
But they haven't played the Vikings yet.
Thanks, Craven!
Could really be a good avatar ... <nods>
