For a second I thought the site to be one of those baking and weaving forums aunts love to lurk in all day.. have another cookie.
Also am one of the few to be happy I no longer have to see some of the annoying animated gifs (like 1% of all avatars). Is it possible to ban a specific user's avatar from showing? :P

You can AdBlock it. That seems to work nicely. :P

There a way to log out of that place once I've logged in?

Change your avatar. I believe the session will expire after a certain amount of time as well.

Edit: Actually... Added a link to close the session manually.

Although it's nice that an alternate has been made, I still doubt gravatar was even necessary in the first place...

Gravatar's been used by the tracker for years, that's why it was initially used with the avatar update.

Even though this has been said to death, there was no reason to have to synchronize the avatars... eh.

The unification of forum accounts and tracker accounts has also been said to death. Let's just keep saying everything to death because apparently nobody listens to anything!

I still don't see what is wrong with the forum's inbuilt avatar system. It works, I made it work better, then it just gets thrown away.

Also, this new system is being strict on maximum size on offsite links. Again, the inbuilt one didn't after a few tweaks.

Because you know the Forums and Tracker just HAVE to have the same avatar.

Or, you know you could just have had a little thing in the Avatar page that says: "Your Tracker avatar" and linked to the Gravatar page, and one for the forums.

Unification of accounts does not require the same avatar and would have been less work with different avatars.

Yes. While I'm not sure why unified is so difficult to understand, can we just move on with life now?

Well, I'm glad we can use our own avatars now, let alone animated ones. Thanks a bunch for making a slight change. Now, I don't have to go bomb Infurnus :p

Ask your doctor if Zandrama is right for you.

Ask your doctor if Zandrama is right for you. Side effects include butthurt, loss of sleep, loss of ego, embarrassment, and social withdrawal.
