Salvete,
I'd like to put this question, raised by Alexander, up for a poll. Do *you* think our forum should have avatars?
Valete!

Moderators: Aldus Marius, Valerius Claudius Iohanes
What???? Exactly where would these pics or icon avatars be? Where would they show up? When would they show up?

There are a couple of ways we could handle this as far as picking one. One, the Board owners (the Aediles?) could create several and put them someplace where users could download them. Dunno how crazy anybody in Admin is about having a user-accessible directory, but the possibility is there. (Hey, it worked for AncientSites!).
The other method is to let us upload our own, subject of course to limitations on file type, file size, and image content. We'd still need the User Directory, but it'd be for putting ours in, not taking the official ones out.
Types should include Romans in togas; in tunic and cloak; in armor (ranker's and officer's versions); in gladiator gear; three or four kinds of Roman women (at least one should be doing something active); maybe some obvious Greeks, for those of a Hellene persuasion; and a Wolf, for Marius in his better moods. >({|;-)
All this being said (I'm such a helpful chap), I am really not crazy about having Avatars in the Forum; there have been problems in other fora with people swiping each others', and besides...some things are best left to the imagination. [solemn wink]
In amicitia,
