no doubt this is old hat, probably dealt with on the prior incarnation of the board, but wondering what is the best (read free) way to link to/serve a small image for an avatar?
Further, what version of phpBB are you running Pewter? I was looking at the phpBB site and it says they now support local image hosting, but that could impose bandwidth issues or open some other can of worms...

Thanks,

Reader Derek Chatwood said, "You quoted me last year for the awards; you could go with the same quote this year: 'Not a more aptly named product in the world. The Phantom is a scam. It will never be anything more than maybe a couple of old Dells shoved inside repainted Xbox cases to fool some gullible press or second-round investors.'"

Nonstop:
loved the vaporware article, always enjoyed monty python, and this comment on the G5 had me rofl (may be less funny to those that don't follow/use Macs?):
8. Apple Computer's G5 Chips at 3 GHz
Intel's in good company. Nobody hit the chip speeds they promised. In June 2003, Apple CEO Steve Jobs said IBM's G5 chips would be at 3 GHz within 12 months. It's been 18.
In response, Justin Evers submitted a "Reading from the Book of Apple, Chapter 4, Verses 16 to 20":
"Then did St. Steve raise on high the Holy G5 of Cupertino, saying, 'Bless this, O Lord, that with it thou mayst blow thine Dell enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy.' And the people did rejoice and did feast upon the renderings of lambs and toads and tree sloths and fruit bats and orangutans and lickable icons.... Now did the Lord say, 'Thou in 12 months, thou must count to three. Three shall be the number of the GHz and the number of the GHz shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither shalt thou count two-point-five, excepting that thou then proceedeth to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the number of the GHz, be reached, then thine will be great and powerful in my sight, however if thou shall have more than one button on thou mouse, who, being naughty in my sight, shall snuff thine's life.'"
