We still don't know how to fix Quint's avatar issue, but hopefully it will just go away when we upgrade to IPBoard 4.0.

My avatar is a shot from E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial of E.T. in the closet reading the ABC book after reviving the flower with the hidden Mickey. It's like a metaphor for my life and shit.

Nice stealth attempt to get someone to ask what your new avatar is!

But I could have just as easily told you though, which is the purpose of the thread...

The bug which affects my account exclusively is a pain. I used to like having fancy animated avatars, some of which were hand made.

I love Sharkus' Richard Ellis Mako avatar.

Meant to mention, I managed to find my very first forum avatar the other day on some message board I used to post on, they amazingly still had it hosted there! 10 years old.

It might have been the official Weezer forum back in the Green Album/Maladroit era.  I was fairly active there for those 2 or 3 years (01-03).

 

They Internet is that old?

I remember my sister and I visiting random chatrooms when we first got internet in 1998 just for the novelty of talking to strangers.  Good thing my parents didn't know what their 10 and 12 year old children were up to!

We got our first PC sometime around 98-00. Dial up Internet!

 

it was 08 or 09 before we got broadband.

 

First forum I visited was an oasis fan forum around 07. Still have friends from those days which is really cool.

I've been using the great Austrian actor/director Erich von Stroheim as my avatar for months now.  First in a still image from Grand Illusion and right now an animated GIF from his great silent film Foolish Wives from 1922.

I've been using the internet since the early 90s.  Specifically, usenet back then.

 

I've been using the world wide web since 95 or 96 I guess

I started using the internet right after newsgroups became obsolete.  A lot of "how-tos" about the internet I read when i was like 10 ('97) were still very much geared to that usenet era.
