Hey everyone - please keep the avatars (and comments thereof) PG13 - not PG, they can be PG13, but no more than that please :)
Thanks!

Ok :'(

Mine has excessive violence in it....what is the level of violence before it becomes R? ;)

I don't know how to define violence, but I know it when I see it :)

My rule of thumb is easy. If you have a question if it's appropriate, then it's not appropriate.

Rated R is when the victim penguin gets out of the cold water and then does a drive by as revenge.

For what it's worth, Paris was PG-13 IMHO...

it was pretty funny , my girlfriend saw me reading this thread and she was like "Wow, who would have thought hot girl pictures would be a problem on an arcade geek board"
=P
-
The FCC has hit the BYOAC forum... ;D
-
I missed the Paris avatar.
So guys, what's my rating? Not currently, obviously. Bananna Girl, Lohan's Boobs, and Lohan Dancing.
-
While we are on the subject of avatars:
The pic I used for my avatar is alot bigger than it is coming up on the board. I thought the board would just resize it to the max allowed size. But i see some people have larger ones. Would it be bigger if I resized it myself? If so, what is the current max, 80x90?
Also, I see some people with pics in their sig. But I didn't see an option for pics in the sig? How would I get a pic in my sig?
Thanks!

I missed Paris too, unfortunately. By the way, Saint, I loved the Supreme Court reference.

I missed the Paris avatar.

(dan quickly saves magnet eyes avatar before the memory hole relegates it)
-
Yeah, but I never lost hope as I thought I might eventually see some nipple.
I think thats what he's referring to.
-
I work in an open office, and it's hard to pretend like I'm doing company research with bouncy bouncy icons on my screen.
Thank you Saint.
-
yes...cos a karate guy repeatedly kicking another karate guy in the face is so businesslike. :P
I'll take sex over violence any time ;D

Please tell me that Peale's banana girl and lindsey lohan shaking her things is pg-13.Anyways im not losing any sleep over it either way but man peale's avatars were getting better everyday(the yin and yang one not included).
-
dont worry will, mine is pretty hott.
-
saint,
Thank you for bringing this up. I've noticed that some of the avatars are inappropriate. Even though my wife trusts me, I don't need to have her seeing some of these sexual avatars with hot women and/or cleavage. The image also gets stored on our hard drives due to web browser cache. Not to mention the file size for these animated gifs are way too big. Most forums put an image size AND file size restrictions on the avatars, but it appears your file size is currently unlimted.
Peale, I'm especially suprized at you. You are a forum moderator and should act like one and set a good example.
-
Lighten up Katana Man. The feeling you have when you see those avatars is a perfectly normal, healthy reaction. :P
-
The end is nigh! The end is nigh!
-
saint,

I personally like peale's avatars.

While I understand your concern, you are not without recourse here. The old saying about "if you don't like it, change the channel" is so appropriate here.
Did I just tell you to go somewhere else on the net? Certainly not.
Careful perusal of your profile and the options available to you will find an option to turn off images from other users, thereby solving your problem and making the board a mostly rated G site (unless you read certain threads.....again, "change the channel" to a different thread there)
Peale hasn't posted anything that wouldn't be allowed air time on your local TV channels. While daring, you aren't without options to solve your issues.
-
I dunno man... there was that banana one... ;)
-
what... she was just eating a bananna theres nothing wrong with that =P
-
saint,
-
Note the wink. :P
;) = wink wink nudge nudge knowwhatimean?

If you're using Firefox (which 100% of the world's geek population should be by now) all you have to do is right-click on the offending avatar and select "Block images from...". Provided the avatar isn't hosted by forum.arcadecontrols.com, you should be laughing.
-

There's absolutely nothing wrong with my avatars, IMNSHO. I haven't shown anything awful yet. A little risque, sure, but I'm not serving (nor would I) hardcore pr0nography. Heck, they're not even *naked!*
Other than my avatars, I don't think my behaviour has been inappropriate on this forum (and I don't think they're inappropriate, either). If anyone does, please speak up.
Truely, if your wife sees these avatars (either mine or Magnet Eye's) remind her that this hobby is 99% male oriented, and occasionally guys oogle hot chicks.
-
occasionally? ???
-
Or you could use Firefox, Adblock, and block www.pealefamily.com/avatars/avatar.gif (but we all know you like 'em ;D)
Also, I find it odd that saint would want all the avatars PG-13:
"please keep the avatars PG13 - not PG"
:P
I'm not complaining ;)
-
Well, the point was that PG-13 was OK, I wasn't demanding that everyone have Bambi, Thumper and Flower as their avatars. Now, I personally *like* Disney characters so that'd be fine by me, but they don't have to be PG if you prefer PG-13... Just nothing over PG-13 please.

oh i know. it was the wording that got me the first time through. the :P tells that I was kidding right?
oh well... cheers! I'm not planning on changing mine anytime soon.
-

I seen dem tree hot broads dere one a dem days lass' week.....ATZA-SPICY-MEAT-A-BALL-A!
Someone got an av wit' dem dere foxes on dem? HACHACHACHA!

Katana Man,
Knowing how much trouble my Walking Spot was getting you into with the wife was troubling me to no end, so it'll please you to know I took it down and made the necessary changes. I hope I haven't caused you any undue problems, and hopefully your wife will like my new avatar much better.
I have a feeling she'll appreciate it along with several hundred other members ;)
-
This thread made me decide to go for an avatar change. WIfe helped pick this one out.
;D
-Goz
-
Drew would that happen to be Krystal Steal?
-
Well let me tell you, you're lucky to have such an understanding wife. My wife doesn't trust me so much. Ever since she saw this thread she's secretly suspected that I'm sleeping with Jessica Simpson, Krystal Steal and other large bouncy breasted anonymous women. We're divorcing now.
-
At least it will give you more time to devote to your hobbies. ;D
-
What the hell is going on w/ the avatars?!?!? LOL.
I won't be able to read this forum at work anymore if this keeps up. :'(
I mean, I like the ladies as much as the next guy (You should see my porn collection)...but BYOAC doesn't stand for (Bring Your Overtly-sexual Avatar Clips). hehe
EDIT: Scratch that, just remembered Firefox can selectively block images w/ AdBlock extension.
-
I have no problem with the avatars. In my area, you see that type of thing everywhere here in California - real or fake. I don't see how it will affect family values or cause marital stress. If you do, with all due respect, the problem lies deeper than just looking at small PG or PG-13 images at BYOAC. I am not saying that one should be forced to look at such images, but just filter at your discretion.
-
Looking back at some of these posts, I have no idea what everyone is talking about, since I can't see the old avitars. Maybe you should upload avitars into your post when you change them. Or create a post that shows your avitars throughout the ages.
-
I had to change my avatar to something smaller. In fact, I've got to change it again. This is a busy site, and the bandwidth can't be pretty.
-
So host them somwhere else, like imageshack (http://www.imageshack.us/). You can upload as many 1MB images as you want.
I always wondered why you got to have a larger avitar, Peale. Could it have anything to do with the blue stars under your name?
-
I know a technical work-around. No, I won't share it! ;)
Actually, Sir Woogie just put a change into effect that constrains *all* avatars to 80x80, so I can't do any more like the pretty stripping girl, or they get all funny-looking.
-
I don't see how it will affect family values or cause marital stress.
I was joking about it being a problem at work.

I don't know...I think the avatars have been pretty much ok.

hehe.. naw, but these avatars certainly do lead to an abundance of wood!! */rimshot*
-
Some days I only check this site to see if Peale has a new avatar up that I haven't seen yet. It saddens me to see that you've gone back to the Superman S.
I'm really liking Drew's new avatar, BTW. :D

ooooooh doggies! Check me out! A brand new avaguitar! un I made it all buy myself....
Where's the Peale 5,000 post party gunna be?
