Ypur correct Kerry, it is too tall!!!
I got it from another forum is rights. Its a friend of mines. We both have Chevy's so that explains it.
I was not going to make it smaller till someone notices (Kerry was first)
so maybe Ill change it now. Just go to other forums, and right click on an avatar you like, and it will give you the URL!

Mine is just an animated gif also. I linked to it from another board, go trolling around some other boards for cool avatars/sig pics. Or search for motorcycle animations (like i said in other thread)

As I said on another thread... I think Rick's avatar sets womans rights back about 20 years. But being in Canada and those long cold winters I guess anime soft porn has its place ;) :nana:
Anyway, I was hoping rich would fix it but hasn't yet. Not the end of the world though.
Now I am FAR from a prude though cartoon boobies don't do a thing for me. But I am shocked that no girls on this board have said anything (as kerry said). If and when they do then I'll address it. Till then maybe rich can look into resizing boobie girl to 100 pixels tall at his convenience. He'll need someone who can resize an animated gif. maybe someone here knows how to do that?

ATTENTION: Sexist Rich
You need to find a host for this avatar but I did resize it for you to 100 pixels tall and squeezed the file size down to only 15k from 49k (for faster page loads for us moden users).
http://www.gstwins.com/images/bouncyboobs2.gif
It will only be hosted here for a couple days till you find a host (right click and save). Somehow I don't think Kerry will host it for you as he has a strong moral compass but you could ask him (whats the worst he can say?).
ps. I think I did a darned good job resizing it and compressing to 1/3 file size myself

when ever i try to resize something it turns into a long involved process of making the stupid pixles not mush togeather, then when i get done, it looks stupid, and I just give up and drag it smaller, and it looks fine. I put far too much into things sometimes!

I know the prog I use to view and resize pics is ACDSee which is a shareware prog. you just have to make sure that you have the original ratio selected so that way you can do it per pixels or a percentage of the original

I use paint shop pro 6 and animation shop 2. You can download an evaluation at http://www.twang.net/download/graphics/paintshoppro/ the file is PSP60ev.exe
Resizing an animation is pretty easy, just select resize. You can also cull out frames to reduce size. I actually resized the animation, then selected a few frames and removed them, exported the remaining frames to Paint shop pro, sharpened the pics sent them back to animation shop and saved the file.

I was gonna resize it this evening, when I got around too it.
Thanks for doing it for me though. Saves me a few minutes. :cheers:
Ah, Canadian winters, they are too be reckoned with. Rather than the anime however, I personally feel that the snowboard girls that are all around my ski house do a much better job warming me and my friends up!! :cheers:
Now Im just being rude!

Snowboarding is amazing! Its such a great sport. Not as good as motorcycling, but nice none the less. /Better than skiing (although not quite as fast). If your gonna try it, go somewhere worthwhile, like sapen, or somewhere in colorado, idaho, montana, washington, or better yet ALBERTA or BC!!! :cheers:

Must... restrain... from going... on long... tirade... ;) I'll try to keep it brief.
John... You say Rich's avatar puts women's rights back 20 years. I assume because his avatar is jokingly stereotyping women. You then go on to sterotype Canada with "long winters" jokingly. Is this not being hypocritical to a certain degree? To be overly sensitive, this could degrade others' views of Canada... which is an awesome place to live. Just for the record, we don't live in igloos... ;)
Everyone... I think we have a great group of people on this board and John does a great job as Admin. This is a multinational board with many different values. While we should be sensitive to not offending other's values, we should also be tolerant of values that we may not agree with.
We live in societies where people actively look to be offended when there is no reason to be. Let's be better than that.
Reading between the lines, John has shown a good example of tolerance. I just wanted to spell it out with this tirade.
Dang... that was too long... sorry.
Peace!

Whats up?
Lerxst,
John wasnt being all that serious about the sexest comment or the long cold canadian winters with porn comment either.
Its just like if I said that americans must be getting dumber, because they are mostly imbreds rednecks screwing their cousins. Just a stereotype perpetuated by the media (cough ...uh uhh jerry springer).
FOR THE RECORD, I AM NOT TAKING A SHOT AT AMERICANS, JUST MAKING A POINT. I am half american, so I sure hope it aint true at least.
Regardless, I think it is hard for people to understand the context that the author of a post has written it in. It is so easy to look at Johns, or my post and say, oh yah, its offensive, or mean, or whatever else. You cant always get your mood when writing the post to transfer into words. I hope that makes sense!

I was just taking his comments to an extreme to make an example of what I was trying to convey.
My message may have come across wrong cuz I was trying to be brief and, like you said, written text can be so easily misunderstood.
I was just trying to get on my soap box and say "People, relax..." which they probably all are anyways...
I'll shut up now... :mrgreen:

I cantd ecide whether Calgary is more like DAllas or Houston, or if its more like Denver (even though thats in Colorado). Either way, us Canucks could give y'all a run for your money in Cowboy credentials. YEEHAW!!! :cheers:

Can we at least agree that we wouldn't want to live in El Paso? :)
(Oops, probably offended someone there). :roll:
It's funny, I live in West Houston and have friends in North Houston and relatives in South Houston. The terrain, vegetation and such are enogh different across town that I find those areas unattractive and wouldn't want to live there.
I'm pretty lucky, I have a 12 minute drive to work on back streets. No traffic, no stop lights, the only bear is that I have to cross three major streets at stop signs.
The humidity can be a problem, but it keeps the women looking young. :mrgreen: We visited friends out in El Paso a few years back and I broke out in a rash. I think my skin just coulcn't take the lack of moisture.

I have lived here most of my life but was born in Oregon, have only been back to visit once. Would like to come up to Canada for a vacation some day and bring back some cubans
Cuban products: one of our many virtues! I have been known to smoke a cuban, or 2 every so often, and I will say, its great to stroll downt he street, big ol' stogey burning away, cowboy boots and wranglers, a snowboard company shirt on, with my Iron Cross belt buckle and straw hat on my head. Thats a good feeling being a punk ass Canadian Redneck. WE even put horns on the front of my friends Escalade when we go cruisin. Blaze a little Tim Mcgraw, aand your in business.!!!
You are guhyouareenteed to have a good time. :cheers:
