Dear collectors,

Today I got the question to change my avatar. It contained a picture of a men putting his sun glasses on with his middle finger, also seen as obscene gesture.

The men on the picture whas the main charactar of a movie, Walk hard, The Dewey Cox story. His name was Dewey Cox, also called Mr Cox in the movie.

I only used the avatar because of his name, mr cox, and did not wat to offend somebody. I should tought before placing it that it was not appropriate.

In this way, I want to apologize.

Kind regards,

Bastiaan

Hi Bastiaan I am sure that the member who suggested you change it will be pleased however i saw no problem with it and actually found it rather amusing.

Thank you Nitroairplane.

I do now know who complained. But i agree with this member that my avatar had nothing to do with this forum. I'm now thinking about what could replace it.

No i do not know who complained, and do not have any interest to know. But it is good that people sometimes let someone know when he is wrong.

Gabe William Johnson... He's funny too, he changes from the usual...

I find RWJ funny, but sometimes he's too repetitive... But the viral videos he finds are amazing!

I know and the comments are great but he seems like he'd be a d*** in real life.

Check the .gif size and the forum's maximum upload size. Most likely it's too big.

EDIT* looks like Jacob fixed it for you.

It shrinked a bit, looks much better... The first one seemed too big, disproportionated for the forum Smile

Alright, the larger one may not have stayed there for long as it was one of those preview images after you upload something to tinypic.com. I replaced it with the actual link, so it should stay there.

Maybe it was too large so taking to much space and stopping the a animation from working?
