Please don't use them. I'll ask you to remove it if you do.

Many folks who use this forum have machines that can't handle them, and some folks get headaches from them (myself included).

Animated smilies are fine however and we have several. Feel free to use your animation there.

I concur. I was trying to find a way of blocking it but it blocked all of them on the sight.
I rather enjoy the smiles that are scattered about.

Actually, I was rather hoping to see ACTUAL (animated, of course!) dismemberment of the respected posting "Missing Member" in the post just above!! I guess I'll have to go to the Monte Python movie to see it instead.

LOL...well, an animated avatar of a speculum on an intersex forum was a bit thoughtless in my mind. Given the fact that some of us are born with vaginas that are sewn up in childhood and some of us are born without a vagina or without the opening to it along with all the trauma many of us have from repeated genital exams, it simply was careless to use it.

The animation was the most annoying part though.

I can't stand animated gifs that loop and loop in avatars. Most forums disallow them and it's something I never posted about because it never came up.

The dismemberment sequence of the Monty Python movie is quite mild by today’s standards. To better fulfill this desire to observe gruesome dismemberment. I would like to recommend the movies “Kill Bill Volume 1” and “Kill Bill Volume 2” . If this does not satisfy your apparent need for bloody dismemberment sequences you may need to seek professional help.
