My avatar, I just realised, looks like I've done it myself in Paint without a lot of attention to details. Wow, makes me look rather shabby.

Well, its not so. It's actually a template for badges that we made back in the early 1990s. I scanned the template, and it ended up a bit blurry 'round the edges.

Just a bit worried youse might think I was proud of a poor Paint effort.

I thought it may have been a photographed and scanned home-made flag.

Instantly recognisable though, which is all that really matters IMHO.

Nope nasty things ... perhaps just a sense of insecurity on my own part!

Some people are always worried they look fat, or that their clothes are in bad fashion, and things like that.

I worry that my avatar looks shoddy.

Hahah, this is the nerds version of dealing with insecure things.

Actually, that was the best bit about it! It sort of had, an "crude, urbane-cultism" aspect to it. Oh shame for disillusion! :(

Thanks for clearing that up Mobb, it has been bugging me for yonks,

I often thought to myself "Gee, Mobb should really touch up his avatar cos it really looks quite shabby - I wonder if I should mention it to him?? - or maybe he's self concious about it and will get all defensive about how he can't afford a proper scanner, and how people are so cruel sometimes and it's not his fault.........

Just glad I didn't mention it! :D

Cheers

Gonzo

Ok I've held off long enough to arguably give Gonzo a small guilt trip :D

Anyways, I've brightened it up a little, using paint.

Still some work to do yet.
