Poll question: Can you see my new avatar?
*Some* people have been *complaining* because apparently there's this hippie browser that it won't load on.... :eyes:

So can you see it???

2. The hippie browser says that the image contains errors.
If it's a new picture of Lieberman, maybe the hippie browser is right. ;-)

4. I use a home-made browser that translates everything into whale-song,
so, technically I can't "see" your avatar in the traditional sense. But from the whale-song, it sounds like it must be very nice. :crazy:

17. It's got a really dark colored head, almost black
And that particular gull has a really natty pattern in the wings... very geometric.

10. I get this error when I try to view the image alone
The image “” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.

14. Well, it must be more than one hippy browser, because
Netscape 7.2 shows your av as a broken picture and I saw where someone using Firefox (according to the poll so far) couldn't see it either.

20. I'll use it until I can't use it any more.

I'll probably ask that my urn have a Netscape logo on the front. I'm one of those old Browser war vets who still hates IE with a passion to this day. And yes, before anyone even asks, I HAVE tried Firefox and do not like it. It is just like IE to me. I honestly don't see a difference. Netscape, however, satisfies me and is the easiest to use.

27. I haven't had much experience with those...
Macs, I mean, but I have heard lots of praise from it's users. I have always just used PC's. :shrug:

Btw, maybe you could be of help to me in my Physics class later this semester. The teacher in there insists that only Macs are used. I have zero experience. I did look at one close up for the first time the other day. I noticed no mouse button. Thought they had at least one on the mouse. Why would the mouse not have any buttons at all? Do you know?

29. EVERYBODY: CAN YOU SEE IT HERE?
Edited on Tue Jan-10-06 07:02 PM by kick-ass-bob


Yeah, I'm yelling, but only to get your attention.

If so, maybe someone can help her out.

I still can't see it in her avatar, but I have it on photobucket as a jpg file.
