Are mods removing my avatar?
 

Simple question. Out of support for Barack Obama I want to have a picture of him as my avatar. Although when I have it form more than a couple of hours it is removed. I get no PM from any mod. If it's against the rules i'll stop doing it. I would just like some type of confirmation of what's going on.

The mods don't want you to jinx him like you did to Grossman.

Hey, I said they would make it to the superbowl. My location/avatar was correct.

And now someone took away the avatar and I can't put it back.

Rehost the image and see if that stops the problem.

I see it just fine.

Agreed. I don't think you are supposed to steal the BBC's bandwidth.
Also, Photoshop/Gimp it to a square shape so you don't make him look thinner than he is.

Well, in the last five minutes the other Obama pick was removed. I went to the avatar part of my homepage and the link had been removed. I tried to put the same one back but it would not let me. So I have just put a new one there. I'll just keep doing this until someone comes out and tells me I can't have a pic of Obama as my avatar.

I seriously doubt any mod is deleting it. The mod of the politics forum uses John Kerry as his avatar.

Alright, I did that. Just very random that I have never had this problem before.

Yeah, but is Obama part of the secret owl burning cult?

if you like. It won't make him look like he's lost 20lbs when used as an avatar.

Wow, I thought that picture was out of hatred for him. You might want to find a picture where he isn't "heiling" the crowd.

one of my roommates from last year works for Obama now




OTOH, I'm not a fan of Obama (for his socialist beliefs).
