What is a Netscape Avatar? It is the little image that accompanies your profile across netscape. Like when you post a story or comment it is placed next to your name. So I been doing some looking.

Marvelous idea. Let the games begin.
One thing, though: no cheating, no changing of any current avatars now that this contest has been officially announced.

Neat idea, and it would get people to stop using the plain basic icon and give a more personalized feel.

I don't think I'd be competitive till they added the category: best avatar lit only by monitors.

Ditto.... more categories. Also, an official contest would be good. Animated avitars?

{{How about the name and physical address of each poster instead of an avatar.
Sure would cut down on the insults. :o)}}
What a HOOT coming from you considering your posts to the story of the praying man that got kicked off the air Canada flight.

I saw a really great chick avatar by hsvhsv. I have no idea if the avatar matches the identity of hsvhsv, but the avatar itself looks great. I can't deny your picks, though. Karina does look fantastic, and so does Brigitte.

A naked girl? WOW that IS original! But, for a guy whose brain resides in the groin area this is understandable.

Ed: In my opinion an avatar contest should be about originality. A naked girl? Now there's something I don't see every day! **eye roll**
