Yes of course, I don't think it will start an "avart campaign" . It will be really insane as concept.

I love insane concepts.

But on the other hand, I hope, most of us won't be willing to change their awesome avatars for something else?  My quoted post was deleted by me before, btw.

Now I realized that having so many colorful avatars are disturbing and so we may soon see a post "Disable all avatars" like we have "Disable all sig ad campaigns"   Just kidding  

I'm sure we'll get them soon enough, though you can disable avatars like signatures (though it probably won't stop people from complaining). I was wondering how long it would be before sig campaigns capitalise on this or people start renting/selling them individually:

You could do an avatar campaign, perhaps offer a bonus for people changing to a dadice avatar?

Already discussing about it. Might decide in 24 hours.

I doubt avatar renting will be as lucrative. The main reason for this is that you can't make it a clickable link like you can with signatures, it isn't really a proper ad. Also, I think people value their avatars more than their signatures.

Where's the clickable link on a Billboard or TV advert? It might not be as lucrative as a signature and link but an image is still very big exposure. If people pay for Personal Texts they'll certainly pay for avatars and for much more, but I agree people will be less likely to sell them, but if the price is right many probably won't have issue. I can see some campaigns requiring you to put it though.

It is now once again possible to upload an avatar to the forum. You must be a full member or above to upload an avatar. Go to this page (also linked in your "Forum Profile Information" settings):
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=avatar

You can only upload new avatars: you can't choose one from the server or use a link as you could before. (If you are currently using one of these types of avatars, the upload avatar page will say that you don't have an avatar.) Also, uploaded avatars are not resized: they are simply rejected if they are too large.

Thanks for the great news! I thought we would be only able to see avatars in the next forum but happy to see that avatars have been re-enabled.

LOL That's not what I uploaded. I don't know now whether it's theymos or you guys messing with me. 

I would prefer no avatar than that one lmao.

Right click on your avatar and check the source and it'll give you the direct link to the spongebob one.

Then go here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=avatar  don't choose an avatar (from your pc) & click upload. In this way you will "lose" your current & desidered avatar.

Lol seriously I'm not messing with you
For example, see my avatar? Compare with this one I uploaded, you can check it on my profile pages
You can check the real one on their profile pages

[GTO911]

Right click, open image in new tab, now check image names. try for everyone  

[twister]

It turns to this : https://bitcointalk.org/useravatars/fool_3.png

And the original of yours is this : https://bitcointalk.org/useravatars/avatar_369756.png



EDIT: Yeah, checked other's, it's like fool_5 .. 6 .. 7
LMAO

Brilliant! And I literally spent an hour maybe more googling like an idiot for an image for my avatar and was so happy LOL.

I truly hope gif avatars are never enabled. That tends to make forums an intolerable assault on the eyes within a very short space of time.

Thanks theymos, great work!
I was waiting for the new forum before avatars were re enabled, good to finally get one.
It's great seeing all the new avatars.
