Hello,
With all due respect to the person who complained about it, I decided to be nice and change it, however many have seen my avatar and rather liked it. Your value judgement which you chose to impose upon me was based on this being a "family-friendly" site. However there are many daemons and such on here who show some rather "developed attributes", bare and open. As my avatar was animated, it did show someone, actually a hand, grabbing a a woman"s breast (however this was a animae cartoon). Now it is my guess that you have yet to pursue other people's avatars (nun looking down at some abundunt cleavage, it is actually a real person), or a SM sig sitting on a toilet? So I decided to bring it down and switch, however I would like others opinions on this, and you had no MOD title.

It's a fickle game.

People don't mind a picture of a guy with his head blown off DEAD.

But people mind if I have a picture of Hitler.

Personally I liked the boobs more then.... well whatever it is now.

Someone didn't like my rocking out avatar of Hitler on headphones. So I changed it to an evil eye.

Hello,
It is actually Cammy player 2 from Super Street Fighter I think.

Well, I do think it is an upgrade over what you did have.

BTW, what was it that you had as a previous avatar?

Hey guy.

Well at least I'm not alone. Are you tired of being treated differently for being immoral?

I might be able to help.

Hmmm..
The Hitler thing, I think is a value judgement, many might be offended for other people, that being said I really never noticed the Hitler one, I don't look at avatars that much. Just because someone has a wierd pic of a madman does not make them one, so it is a funny world I guess, I hate PC crap...

Want me to hook up the Hitler avatar I had so you could judge for yourself?

Morality has nothing to do with it.

This is a family-friendly site. Don't use anything you wouldn't show to your parents or grandparents and you'll get by just fine.

Well hell yeah you should!

Who complained, OP?

The other one was from Bamboo Blade, a girl in a bikini, and a hand comes up and grabs the covered breast. No nudity, kinda funny as her expression does not change, (if you have seen the series she is used to that).

Here is the horror that is

HITLER!!!!!!!


Personally found it funny. Yes I know how evil he is, but many people also equate George W. Bush to this man, so *shrugs*

Hello,
Rain, the pm was sent, as for the Hitler one, it just looks wierd to me, of course when it comes to my parents and grandparents seeing it, it would not be a problem, as I am long past living there, and they had a firm belief in all forms of art.

I am now reverting avatar to newest one so as not to provoke anyone.

I could see Eddie giving a little one a nightmare.

But they would have to kill me to get me to change my dp.

But that happens atleast once a week.

What if you have one of those freaky 60's Grandmas who go biking in the nude and offer your friends Pot instead of Buttermints?

And I have had the opposite problem, I changed from the Shark and got inundated with complaints.

Hello,
Hmmm..what are thease buttermints?

They are a rather English type of hard sweet, commonly associated with old people.

Gwar!, your shark was iconic and complimentary to you. Ergo, you should keep it because it represents you on these forums.

As for me, I tried the whole SharkCat thing, then went to some Bleach avatars, liked Hitler, and have now gone to an evil eye.

Work in progress.

Quick, someone find a way make this their avatar:

Not sure since I can't make out the color. Definately cammy. There really wasn't a true "second" player color since Super Street Fighter 2 had apx 6 colors per character. If it matters enough I can try and dig my copy out and just choose the default green for both players to see what it is. As for avatars mine shows decapitation.

The bubby flicking avatar was sexist.

Cue hail of PC hating no sense of humour vitriol.

and no it wasn't me that complained. I just thought it purile and reflected the personality of the user.

I don't think anyone complained.

It was noticed by a moderator. We discussed it and thought the site did not really benefit from such an avatar.

People do complain about avatars, and the moderators take such complaints seriously. Some are upheld, others aren't.

The only avatar pic that ever bothered me was of some girl with a gun, and across the chest area of her shirt it said infidel in arabic and english.

I actually liked your creepy troll/goblin thing from when I just lurked dakka...if that was you...

As long as my avatar remains sacrosanct, the world is a safer place...

HAZAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!

Really?

I think we need to see a larger picture of your new avatar before I'll believe it's Cammy... or something...

Yes, that particular uses avatar (and signature) has annoyed me for some time, and I have complained about it, but alas it seems it was considered ok by the powers that be. -shrug-
