O please tell me how to do that. I've almost had a siezure when it comes on. I have to hold my hand over the screen to read any thread he's posted in, and I have'nt been able to read anything he's posted since he put it up. I just assume it's the usual drivel and carry on as if he was'nt there, but that avatar is making me sick.

For a start, if you want to stop an animated Avatar just press the Escape key... and then sigh in relief.

To block it completely, just use the Ad Blocker on your Internet Browser.

But yeah, that's how I came up with it then. Plus I think it sounds cool, so meh.

I like it. I'm not sure if it's a mental aberration, but the shape of certain words on the page suggest the form of the concept they represent. Your nickname is one of those words. I think the Egyptian thing backs up your mythological authenticity (Poe had a thing for ravens, and a thing for mothers, so I'm sure he'd have liked it too).

But the flashy goodness!

Plus hitting escape blocks all the other boring, non-nausea inducing animated avatards.

hehe, The delta guys are Mississippi John Hurt, Charlie Patton
and Son House and Robert Johnson.
Son was born in 1902 but didn't take up guitar till he was about 25
but made up for lost time! He met and learned from Charlie Patton
who is considered the father of delta blues, Charlie was quite a
showman, slapping at the guitar, playing it between his legs, jumping
around on stage, quite a legend. Son House was a bit more reserved
but made himself a legend with songs like Death Letter and Dry Spell
blues, he was a bit gloomy compared to Charlies showmanship
but influenced Robert Johnson and Muddy waters and Elmore James
to name a few. Not enough room to do him justice in one paragraph.
He made the blues hall of fame in 1980 and died in '88.
