What do you think guys? I do believe a poll is in order.

I would contribute to the poll but it looks like I need a login and password, and its not worth the trouble.  I say yes time to move on to a new one.  lol

The only thing I would drop is the 50$ coupon. Like anyone is getting that back.  :-?

@TjLaZer  

Whyzzat is certainly worth the trouble! You should be registered there ayhow :admonish:

@Methuselas

That was the joke at the time, along with the tee-shirt. After some of the tee-shirts were actually shipped(late 04?) Patrick actually got a shirt. At this point I think the joke is probably long dead, as is Amiga Inc. I'm just torn. I still think it is cute, just terribly dated.

Hmm.. maybe an anti-Walmart avatar..

Do you have a slightly large version of your avatar? Even if you don't, you could submit it to the photo gallery.

Uncharted: Every time I see your avatar, I think it should be set to music or a sound bite.

I don't get the joke since I never paid any attention to the post escom amiga development. You could get 50$ back if you pre-ordered something?

Anyway come to think of it I read that workbench manual by now. Maybe I should change the avater too......hmmm

@Erno
The look of bemusement and confusion in reading the workbench manual is inspired - keep the avatar !!

I change my avs like I change my underwear, my current flavour of the month is macro/micro photography, of which I have plenty in reserve :-D

As for the topic, you know the saying, "A change is as good as a holiday!" :-)

I've got no problem with that avatar red.  The one I have a problem with is Wayne's - I find it disrespectful.  Just good thing for him it's not a comic of Mohammed!  I would have to go all jihad on his arse! (kidding)
