This is not spam but there were a lot of off topic posts and some unnecessary back seat moderating, so I've cleaned the topic up as best I can removing all the off topic remarks
As many members have pointed out, there is an active and popular Rate the Avvie thread in Fun Stuff and although there's no rule to say that members can't make a topic asking if others like their avvie, we do ask people to avoid duplicating threads ...
I feel that this does fall into that camp, so I will close it and ask that anyone who wants an opinion on their own avvie, to please post in the above mentioned thread.
