If you want to find one the right size this is a good site (http://www.buddyputty.com/main.html). If its working you can select to have an avatar in your options but with things being a bit up and down on the forum you might not be able to get in ATM.

In theory.....

..... but the search facility has been a casualty of the upgrade and still isn't working :(

i think im gonna invest in one, not sure what to have.

Is there anything 'banned' from being used?

Just within the relms of decency i think.

Oh, and love the sig John, QOTSA rock, shame about Nick and Josh not being able to resolve their differences.

Cool, wasnt gonna use anything to bad lol! Dont get me started lol, im a massive massive massive QOTSA fan and basically every other band connected with em! Yeah its a shame, always liked seeing them with Nick, Was a bit odd this year at last year at Leeds fest without em! I think he will come back when Alain goes to finish the new Eleven album!!!!!!

Anyways back to subject in hand! I have something id like to use, whats maximum size etc?

50x50 pixels,and there is also a filesize limit too, max of 6.8kb.

The QOTSA family tree is huge, and I love many of the bands, Kyuss especally. Although I love the desert sessions CD's Josh has done, took me ages to find the first one. Love it!

cool! i love Kyuss too! I got all the desert sessions, eventually! and i got the Kyuss/QOTSA album too! Have you seen the QOTSA on the net? tis massive! i'll pm you the link if you havnt. Its a few years old but gives you some scope!

Met Nick, Dave Catching and Brant Bjork when i saw Mondo Generator in Manchester! Met Dave again when i saw Eagles of Death Metal too!

Yeh, seen that, and various other bits, the amount of interlinking bands and whatnot is impressive.

Long Live QOTSA and associated musical magicians
