In view of a recent comment made to me about my avatar, saying it offended as it looked like an insatiable farang, I have decided to let the people decide.

The Avatar I thought was funny and original and is motor related (Mitsubishi/Honda)

Please give me your views and I will abide by the majority decision

I don't like it.

It makes me feel that you are likely to be aggressive in nature, and it makes me feel uncomfortable. It also makes me think that you must be a Pattaya person (nothing wrong with that, please don't attack me Brit!) Of course, I now know that you are a decent chap with interesting posts and thus your avatar helps to easily notice you. But initially it gave me a bad impression, and first impressions sometimes count.

I don't think that you should change it though. It's up to you, and it is original.

I voted "offensive" only because I find animated avatars annoying. Same with all the lame emoticons. When I come across a moving avatar I quickly scroll down the screen to get rid of it, reminds me of having a child pulling at my sleeve when I am trying to read a book.

Hit the ESC key, that will stop the animation.

It does not offend me.

But I often estimate the age of a person by his/her avatar and I first pigeon-holed you at aged between 18-24 due to the copulation-animation style of your avatar.

Since I have read your posts, I have realised that you are more senior.

Avatars are important. They should be chosen with the same care and attention as you would visit upon choosing a tailor or cobbler.

Surely, at first glance, the animation is meant to resemble some sort of sexual act? The rhythmic thrusting of the figurine's pelvis is insinuating more than a knee-knocking exercise?

I don't think you are getting old 'farangsay' just exposing your innocence.

I raised a question on your avatar in another topic:

I guess you put quite some effort into the creation of your avatar and are trying to convey a message with it, but try as I might it escapes me. A humanoid with the logo of a Japanese car manufacturer as a head banging a box with the logo of another Japanese car manufacturer against his knees.

What is it supposed to signify?

Having received no answer from you I reserve my opinion on your avatar except to say that I continue to find it puzzling, if not rather silly.

Sorry Maestro, I missed the previous post.

I didnt 'create' the logo, I just found it on one of the avatar web sites.

I guess its saying that Mitsubishi is far better than Honda :o

I didnt really psycho- analyse it, just thought it looked funny :D

Slightly irritating at first but now i'm used to it. No where near as bad as PATTAYAPUNTER.

IMO I find jasreeve17's pig avatar the most annoying.

I concur.

OMG, I totally agree with Grover on all counts. :o Didn't vote, JD, as I wanted to say slightly annoying, like most moving targets except the two penguins. But I like most of your thoughts, so I don't hold the avatar against you. Do as you please.

I find it quite amusing. Like other I didn't see the car symbols until it was mentioned a ways back.

I think some people take this forum, and life in general, far too seriously.

Lighten up folks, do not take life too seriously 'cos nobody gets out alive anyway. :o

Oops, sorry if I spoilt the ending for some of you.

I'm surprised you have the luxury of having a poll about it. I've had two much more innocuous avatars pulled by the powers-that-be before. Neither of them was sexual in nature, but some morally righteous prigs objected to them and I was obliged to change them.

Re yours; mildly amusing and certainly not offensive. What's the problem? Has someone complained?

Thank you SOOOOO much! I didn't know that was possible.
