ADEE - those are great! Fun. Regarding not allowing animated avatars - when a bunch of people start doing it then I find the page to be just distracting. I have visited forums that allow it and I feel like I am in a noisy playground. It's fun, and lots of positive goofy energy, (and I love that) but after awhile, to me, it becomes constant visual noise. Like right now as I'm writing my response, I keep seeing the blinkies out of the corner of my eye, and my brain just wants to look at it. Call me an old fogey, but it's just a way to keep things focused on the posts.
If enough people, as a majority, request this, it may be something I would possibly consider in the future. |
