And why does it keep popping up over the default avatars?

    @bengoshi It does? To me it looks like the black and white bomb head thing with X eyes... Is my add blocker causing trouble again or have you seen that image too?

    As for the avatars that look like "the black and white bomb head thing with X eyes", I've written it here:

    @Shandyr If you have an add blocker it may be blocking the default avatar generator since it is a widget. I ran into that once myself.

    All the images of peoples posts makes this thread confusing to look at :)

    I guess vanilla must have a database of default avatars? idk.

    I don't want to use my own pic like some other guys here do. Too ugly.

    Thanks! I take this as a compliment. I would be more happy with "terrible" or "fearsome", but "ugly" is flattering too.

    @elminster I am pretty sure it just generates random avatars by choosing the features randomly and then giving them a color and tilt. The bomb face is probably what gets shown if there is some kind of error.
