Has this ever happened on the forum?

Are you going to change your handle to Smithers?

 

[Big Shasta]

Are people seriously fighting over an avatar with an animated gay man being tortured with cartoon supertramps?

 

[Makuna]

In your new avatar..... I can't tell if he is happy, shocked??? or did she let one fly and his eyes and nose are burnin...... :shok: :sicksmiley02: :huh: :huh:

I think the right word is Repulsed.

I'm curious if permission was sought and obtained from the original photographer before the original picture was used as an avatar.

Or even on the current animated piece. If it was created by an artist one would think they have copyright protection.

Shit! Cease and Desist orders and day now

Shyeah right!

:jester:

 

[DailyCommuter]

Lol no I don't intend to. Think ill just go bury my head in the sand for a while for making such a stink over nothing

 

[mattster31]

Huh. Maybe we should ALL use your avatar.

Sounds good to me! Thanks DC :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:

Another case of Forum Avatar envy!

 

[ionbeam]

After all this 'fun' I will add a spoiler, yes, there have been other cases of new members displaying the same avatar as a senior board member. TWN even had his Barney usurped. Pierre's walking lady has proven to be a very popular avatar, I dunno why :lol: The interlopers either restored the rights to the original owner voluntarily or the avatar owner sold his rights to the newbie for a handsome profit

I don't consider myself a senior forum member, although if that's what you meant, I would take that as a extreme compliment coming from you Alan.

The funny thing now is the people that are just skipping to page 2 of this thread think its the smithers avatar that I'm talking about when it is the pantsless female passanger on the sportbike that was what started it.

I will now have to get myself some .gif creating software and make a gif of myself doing something amazing.

Stay tuned.

Why isn't it a Friday when you need one... You have a FJR, you have a wife, I have a camera -- I believe we have the ingredients needed to recreate your former avatar B) Heck I have the software to create animated gifs, boy can we guild this lily.

 

[mattster31]

On the other hand.................maybe I'll use Busta's fer a while Don't know which ones fuglier though, the horse or the hatter.

I have no imagination today.

Happy Easter all

EDIT: What kind of encryption you have on that avatar of yours Busta?? I can't get it to work :angry:

 

[DailyCommuter]

Geez Alan, you surprise me. There goes my mild-mannered impression of you.

 

[Silent]

I'm glad to hear you worked things out

 

[ionbeam]

Silent, Silver Penguin is gonna be looking for you...
