I don't see the big deal with avatars. They actually help with reads in cases where I forget to take notes. When you're playing 9 tables and you don't always remember everyone, sometimes it helps to look and see an avatar and say "oh yeah, the guy with the baby keeps 3betting me light." Ideally, you have a note about it or you just remember it, but it doesn't hurt to have some extra memory cues imo.

well, it's very distracting and also helps (hurts) to establish psychological problems like "omg that [censored] with that [censored] baby avatar keeps [censored] 3 betting" when in reality they may have just picked up hands

Whenever i'm on stars to rail someone the software drives me insane. The avatars are bad, but even worse is the tourny popups. I know you can turn it all off, but im lazy and stuff.

As for full tilt, I have them off. But I make sure to use the fishy one so everyone knows.

I just find them plain distracting. I want to be fully concentrated on the game and not look at goody avas.

edit: my avatar is btw pitch-black

Do people really play with PS/FT avatars?

I don't believe it.

I don't even have a poker table displayed when I play on FT.

All black baby.

I see no reason to mod FTP. Just use racetrack, no avatars, the marble background, and a 4 color deck.

More room for the unprecedented (and un-necessary) amount of HUD stats I use. The color-coding I use on VPIP/PFR/AF is usually enough for me to know if someone is a maniac or not.
