    Custom avatars

    Seeing a question about uploading a custom avatar today gave me an idea ...

    How about making it compulsory to have a custom avatar after a certain number of posts or time on AO? After all, since we spend most of our waking hours here, we should all have a unique identity.

    For example, if someone reaches the stage where he is going to become a junior member, how about not letting him make that 75th post until he posts a custom avatar?

    Thoughts, comments?

    Cheers,

    BrainStop

    Well some people dont like avatars and forcing someone is pretty pointless.

    Some people aren't as talented when it comes to graphics as others, so forcing them to have a custom avatar would be somewhat pointless.

    Besides, people like me don't have mad skillz when it comes to graphics, and I don't want to take the time to make an avatar......oh wait, well, mine took a total of 10 minutes to make anyway, but thats why it isn't animated.
