I've seen two negative comments about my fly avatar. I'm attached to it for personal reasons, but does it really bother people? I suppose I could rustle up another logo if it does. Here's today comment: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=120x16773#16814

2. yeah, I saw that comment |
|
I find the spirit of his comment (that the avatar should be removed because HE doesn't like it) to be much more offensive than the fly pic.

You could have anything as your avatar and it wouldn't bother me.

Like your fly..
If flies didn't exist Life on this Earth would be a WHOLE LOT more disgusting. So,three cheers for the flies! Without them who would break down all this shit and make it something useful? And how would we so easily prove GW has shit for brains without the flies buzzing around his head?

8. OK by me...except that when I read your posts... |

...I hear this high pitched "buzzy" voice in my head...sometimes takes the edge off the gravitas...but that's my problem.

11. OK, I'm keeping the thing.. |
|
..the avatar commemorates the invasion of my house by hundreds and hundreds of flies this summer, hatched from somewhere in its crawlspace so that closing the windows was no defense. Thanks for the feedback.
I'm lost a thing of no position Trapped into a dimension hitherto unknown..
I the fly was hopelessly entangled..

13. A creative person would have created a flyswatter avatar . . . |
|
instead of whining about your fly :) :) :)
Personally, I think it's fine :).
