Why won't my avatar animate?

Interesting that m00n's avatar does not even show up on my computer at

work. Turned out the corporate firewall blocked it, saying it was

"pornographic". Go figure...

Of course, nothing in my browser animates, as I've disabled the

animations (yes, I am using Firefox, and have no intention of ever

returning to I.E.) . Just never liked all that $#!+ dancing and

bouncing

around while I am trying to read something (not to mention some of

those annoying ads on some pages). I just find it distracting as

hell, so I shut it all off.

I certainly hope everyone doesn't start jumping on the animated sexual avatar bandwagon. Not only are they distracting and annoying (to some) and rude (to me), I'm sure they put an unneccessary strain on our already overworked server.

The server is only serving up the image. It's no different that it serving up any other avitar. The processing that is causing the animation is happening on the client browser... In fact that image is not even hosted on the klipsch forum server. It's a hyperlink to a totally different server some place else. If you look at the properties of the image, you will see that it's coming from

Man, these are some very animated avatars (and I can't believe Charlotte Church has changed THAT much)!

But since Amy doesn't care too much for our tastes in avatars, here's one for the Beatles fans out there...[;)]

You guys realize who that is? Charlotte Church! Yes, That Charlotte Church! For some reason I always picture her as that 13 y/o with the angelic voice! [:o] She sure has grown up!!!

You have got to be kidding me!!!! There's no way- now I'm all confused feeling in my belly.
