Will Avatars ever return?
I realize the site has been slow due to increased traffic. I understand that disabling avatars speeds things up. But are they gone for good? Or will avatars be back?

I think if you have one of the sites' own avatars, you get a question mark. I rather like this and might try to keep it.

Why can't you look in other threads to find the answer? Even though I had a rather low opinion of you, I never thought it'd possibily get to the low level of a newbie.

Avatars have been disabled for the time being, but not permanently -- they will return at some point as they have in the past. Given recent traffic load observations, if they stay more or less consistent as in recent days, I would say by the end of the first week of July avatars will at least make a brief re-appearance again. That is to say, the re-appearance will only be "brief" if a suddenly begun and prolonged, significant load on the server is generated thereafter.

You should know, as I can see you are related! How is it to be AH's son after all?

I almost thought that I had accidentaly changed some option in my control panel, but... no. 
Ten days far from here and still no avatars... I really thought something was wrong with my account.
