My suggestion is, next time you find an avatar, host it on a image site instead of just lifting a link from someone else's bandwidth.

WAIT - NOW IT'S BACK. ????
Never mind.
p.s. Lemur - your latest Avatar at least isn't giving me nightmares, but still kinda evil-looking.
BRING BACK SLOW LORIS WE MISS SLOW LORIS!!!
And don't forget to host it somewhere you control.
You never now when someone might find out you are leeching and swap it with something like THIS. That's what a friend of mine did to a guy leeching bandwidth off his website to compete at eBay sales with him.

omg NOOOO!
I can't un-see that, can I?
And just btw, this is from a site that specifically offers free hosting for web Avatars. You can upload your own or use one of their collection no charge. They must have just had a hiccup today.

At least it wasn't ******, which is a real risk when stealing someone else's bandwidth (link is perfectly safe).

That pic I linked to (might even of been the exact one my friend used) was about as far out as my friend would go. Not only do that hot-linker (and he did it for several products) and my friend both sell on eBay, but my friend has a brick-and-mortar business and uses the website for that to host his eBay images. So no chance of ******.

Suddenly I have no Avatar, and it's one I found just by searching for something that appealed to me on a random website.
The Edit Avatar line on my User CP shows no entry, and I'm trying to figure out how to track down the web address of that original Avatar.
Any suggestions?
