That doesn't even count the time it takes to relocate and rename the images so that they fit the alphanumeric variable formula I used. It can be done, but only through a great deal of time and effort.

    So, while I'm pleased you like the randomization, I'm afraid it's not feasible for me to do it for individuals.

    However, if you'd like to make yourself an avatar that's an animated gif combination of several avatars, you can go to any free gif maker to do that and achieve a similar goal. That's what I did for Glenn's birthday.
    I did try that once & I just wasn't that happy with the result. It just wasn't me (although I may try it again at some stage). That's why I rarely use the existing .gif avatars. I was just interested in how you did it.

    Soda - Didn't get around to posting yesterday, but, as usual, I loved your April fools joke with the revolving avatars even though I had to get used to not seeing my avatar by my name. Very well done!

    And good to hear from you again, Prettmaid. We've missed ya around here!

    Well - I have a good excuse. As a matter of fact, I just posted about it in the 'What are you doing right now' thread.
