I personally think apples, sabertooth tigers, snakes, and whatnot decorating posts are distracting. I'm thinking about opening a "header" and "footer" HTML area that will automatically bracket all posts with these personal decorations. (Some people like them, and they do add character to a post.) I would then provide a configuration option to allow others to disable this added fluff.

Eh. To each their own.

I like avatars, and wish more on FR had them. Makes scrolling through posts, many of them fluffy and graphic-free, much easier.

It's no longer a DOS-based world, after all. Graphics are everywhere because they're more intuitive.

How about some software where I can create my own icons for posters who lack them? Now that would be fun.

One of the problems I have with your cat pic on the side, tooth..

-- It makes rest of your reply string out less than the width of a newspaper column.

Distracting, and hard to read, imo.
