Invites, Custom Searches and a Sweet Demo of Google Wave
I was going to include links to the profiles, so you can see what I'm
talking about. I don't want to call anyone out about it though. It's really
up to Twitter not permit animated GIFs, but we'll see what happens.

Maybe twitter could look at setting a preference option not to allow gifs, like browsers can be set not to display pictures? It'd lose it's appeal as a stand out feature if it meant a whole heap of people would only see the default icon...
reading this? I hope so.

I started noticing a few animated avatars on Twitter last week and they've annoyed the twit out of me. I've taken to unfollowing anyone using the animated gifs. It's too hard to look at them. I figure I'll check back on each after a couple of days to see if they've changed to a regular avatar and refollow if they have.
if Twitter put a stop to them. Please keep me posted.
Cheers!

@pilchardmusic still has one, but a not-too-annoying version. I'm using him as a litmus test...

I just don't like the idea of my timeline filled with animated images.
Cheers

If he had an animated gif of him doing the running man I would DIE laughing but then that is an old image of him. But, you never know.
Something to think about. I don't know. The more I think about the animated gif I think of all the visual artists that I follow? Hmm..possibly? But then again like you I don't want all that flash on my twitter stream especially with me following over 1000 people!
Be good! oxoox
