Wordsmoker

You know – I was going to write a long screed about how I saved your avatars, listed them by user, and managed to upload them all on your behalf without you having to worry about it – how they magically appeared like John Travolta in a sauna, everyone was happy, the end. Unfortunately I have to truncate that story to “I saved your avatars, and listed them by user”. It turns out that me being able to restore them all isn’t going to happen. You’ll have to re-up them, man.

Oh, Virus WE HATE YOU FOR THIS I hear you curse under your Winter clothing I AM TEH FUMING OVER THIS you tell to the remnants of turkeys, who are now your only friend because of the season.

Yeah. I’m sorry. If you ask ReneSance, Chillbear or Mama Penguino, they’ll back me up on the amount of time it took for me to back all the avatars up. They’ll also speak of my utmost sorrow in having to ask you all to re-upload them using the fancy new menu and going

with your already tired and listless mouse-prodders. OH THE HUMANITY you’ll cry! THREE CLICKS TO GIVE MYSELF AN AVATAR WHAT IS THE WORLD COMING TO????? I’M A STAY-AT-HOME NARCOLEPTIC AND PART-TIME FIRESTARTER!!! I ALSO RESIST CHANGE AND

It’s not too much to ask, is it? Wordsmoker’s practically begging for your hot-avatar action, you sexy bitch – especially now the avatars are of a size that is discernible to the human eye.

Go on – give Wordsmoker some hot, avatar action. You can follow the summarized route to uploading and changing your avatar above, or look at this fancy walkthrough I typed out with my especially instructional fingers.

Change My Avatar

A fancy walkthrough which will also be always available from the Help menu here. Don’t say I’m not making it relatively easy on you.

Don’t say anything. Hush, let me hold your hand and gaze into your blank eye-sockets, eye-sockets that will remain forever creepy until you fill them with a little picture of something representing everything you stand for on here.

Oh yes – why should you have an avatar? Hot-avatar-action-loving babe Lipstick Librarian just answered that in the Commenting post below this one (you know, the one with the little grey boxes besides the comments?)

Lipstick Librarian On Avatars In Modern Society

I just can’t take seriously any commenter without one, on any site.

It’s like they have no face. It’s disconcerting, as I imagine talking to a person with no face would be. Though if they’re faceless, I suppose they’d be lipless as well, and therefore unable to speak. They’d stand there flapping their jaws and flopping their tongue around, spritzing your lapel with a surprisingly fine sprinkling of faceless person spit.

Like I said, disconcerting.

I couldn’t put it better myself.

Also - sorry for the inconvenience, my darlings.
