I think it would be fun. But keep in mind that I'm an insane fascist with a soccer fixation and a taste for ancient TV shows and improvisational comedy.

I think it's a great idea.

and why only 25 characters?

Otherwise some idiot will rewrite War and Peace below the avatar

Saw a comercial yesterday that would be perfect for you, John Tesh (the ET guy) is selling three volumes of "inspirational" music, all kinds of dopey religious songs that he performs.

This feature would be discriminating against people with no avatars.
You get new toy and they get nothing. No fair.

I need to grit my teeth and watch more religious programming. They never advertise fun things like this on Cartoon Network.

I go to some a bit more radical extense than 25 characters, and suggest 50-70. Why? That wouldn't be too long (IMHO), but you could still describe the avatar in a nice way. The option to have a description should only be able to those with custom avatar. It would be then easy to ad a field next to the circle you should tick if you want to use a cutom avatar.

What stops you from putting this to the location -field?

The title command works in both Mozilla and IE. Do not use alt, use the proper command if both will work on the biggest browsers. There is still a chance that the newest version of AOL will feature the Gecko engine and not IE. When/if that happens, sites that have not adhered to standards are going to have some trouble. Plus, Markos, you just switched to Mozilla, make sure your new feautures work for you.

I saw it on the "E" channel, and I was only watching that to look at Brooke Burke's giant cans.

No response likely means that he doesn't think he wants to do it
But it was a good idea, anyways!

Hey, maybe Mark is too busy coding up this change and wants to surprise us with it all working.

Let's hope for that. At least this feature wouldn't be bad at all if used with proper manner.

No. 
You are kidding, right?
Using location field for displaying location? 
What will they think of next?

See. As strange as it may seem, I can sometimes read Mark's mind. That's why I post that info in threads like these... I try to save him time

Who's Kyle?
Is he the same Kyle who posts here?
I was a bit put off by Capitan Garlic's avatar. Is he trying to outdo Ming?

Kyle is me. Not the Kyle that is currently here. As for CG's avatar, he's my brother, and he made that avatar.

So, I see you got your taste in avatars from the other side of the family. I like them both, to be honest.
