But those of us who have been here for years aren't going to risk a ban over posting a naked girl in our avatar. It's not a HUGE deal to me, but I can't say that I understand the "no avatar" rule anymore... especially now that we have a button to make inserting videos in a post that much easier.
On a more serious note: is there ANY way that we can return to the old style under user options? I've looked and looked and I can't find a way to make it work like I used to. Like in Windows, a person can select the "Windows Classic style" if they don't like the newer styles. I'm not really "feeling it" so far.
But hey, for all your hard work, a big THANKS, Mark. Don't let any criticism be taken too hard. Unless you put rotating pictures of Danica Patrick, Fernando Alonso and Sarah Palin on the front page, I can live with it.
P.S. Avatars, please. Just a small version of this - that's all I want. Pretty please.

I did think that a classic style might be a good idea but the old templates don't work with the new software. I'll have a poke around and see if such a thing exists.
As for avatars, I'll give it some consideration!Please 'like' our facebook page http://www.facebook.com/motorsportforums

One thing to mention with avatars, I think the forum needs to be setup so the user information is on one side. You don't want avatars making threads longer in terms of scrolling up and down. These days most people have widescreen monitors so it's not like people are going to be losing a huge amount of horizontal space

It's OK, it's a short stage! Remember the FIA and promoter reserve the right to completely fuck over everything we all know, enjoy and understand about this series and sport. Or, maybe they might...
