    Signatures are off for everyone, no choice.

    Avatars are on by default, but anyone that doesn't like them can turn them off under User CP - Options.

    Seems like a no brainer decision here, most users like them and if you don't, you can turn them off.

    How could you say no to that?

    You have a point there Rob, I just wanted to see if it was working correctly. Thats all. I'll try to find a personal photo to use instead.

    BTW: You still gotta love them!

    OK I like the avatars, very cool. It's a nice way to visually tell who's talking. Thanks Rob!

    Haha, cool, look at mine. I don't mind these at all. Like others have said, it adds a personal touch. I'm still getting used to the new names though, I feel like I have to get to know who everyone is again. But so far so good.

    I'll second that... I like to pass on my love of Ferraris and sportscars to my kids... so I often share with them various threads. Won't be able to do that if there's porn running down the left edge of every thread.

    Maybe a little note where you upload the file requesting the avatars be kept clean?


    P.S. Why is there no "thumbs up" message icon? (There is a thumbs down.)

    I think it will bring back the individuality that the change over lost.

    Its hard to find a Ferrari with a wing anymore. I guess I'm stuck in the 80's. I want one of these Maser's.

    I'm up for this, as long as the avatar is of you (with clothes) or of a car, it's all good. Avatars help a lot with the recognizing of users easily. I never read a users name unless I can't tell from their post, an avatar just makes it easier.

    Every other board has avatars, I dont like them. Ferrarichat had the old fashioned style message board going but now you guys are selling out j/k.

    I just added this text to where you add/edit the avatars...

    Please! Only avatars of your car(s), yourself, or other acceptable images. No animated gifs either. Violation of this may result in removal from community.
