Tip: Disable avatars and signatures in the look and layout settings of your profile.  The forums load faster and look a whole lot cleaner, too!

I just keep avatars on because they let me quickly identify who the poster is. Reading text is so out of style.

skinning is totaly diffrent though. its like making your own puzzle out of triangles :P

I keep avatars disabled for exactly the same reason.  When people change their avatars or have similar looking avatars, I get them mixed up.

I try to stick to one avatar on forums. And usually, I use the same avatar almost everywhere. :P
