Hmm, Avatars. There are definately ways of sorting out the pics next to our posts (I never had one, even when I was Andy eeeks) - and am getting to grips with what people call avatars. I call them "SKINS" in online games. The most oustanding one in my head has to go to Docone which was a "screaming thing" - with its tongue out? Ok I have to do the thing here and ask that anyone who lost their Avatar (WHERE DID THAT WORD COME FROM?? AND WHAT DOES IT MEAN???) Post me a mail with it attached to mark@markwaddington.com I'll try to install it on the board and get it shown again. Mark.

my dictionary lists "avatar" as a cheifly Hindu term meaning "a manifestation of a deity or released soul in bodily form on earth". from the Sanskrit "avatara" 'descent'
the secondary meaning is what we are used to, "a movable icon representing a person in cyberspace or virtual reality graphics."

krazy... why would Mothra need a tinfoil hat? I think she can stand up to the best of anything an alien can send her way... and if not then those two tiny girls can whoop em
