You know, I am not honestly sure.. Probably because most places around here simply stated pride month, as they didn't want to confine the celebrations simply to those who are homosexual. So, yeah - that was what I was referring to :P

Anyway, outside of any celebratory illustration statement, I kind of like this avatar on a purely aesthetic sense - but perhaps I will make it monochrome blues or something!

Well thank you :) I quite like your current gif-avatar that is totally legitimately obtainable and possible for everyone else to do :P Haha, honestly I haven't tested if it is possible.

I was recently just trying to make a version of my avatar with a transparent-ish background. Since you can not have transparency, I was essentially attempting to copy the background that would appear; the stripes. My main problem is that shadow/boarder that appears on the upper left sides of the box. So, I am not sure what my thoughts are on what to do.

I thought I removed the borders?

For me it still appears on yours, I perhaps will make a version of my with a similar striped background and I suppose I will see if it has a similar boarder.

It actually is obtainable for everyone, and it's not a .gif

Ah, I was unaware of that, Street :) Perhaps more people will start using animated avatars as well.

I use Mozilla Firefox, I just recently cleared the catch to see if that had anything to do with it. Hmm.. strange.

Guys, I've been wondering... should I make the Yoshi Egg in my avatar a little more distinct?

Edit: NVM, I added a glow effect. I think it looks better that way.
I need a shot again, that sweet adrenaline.

Soooooo having a transparent background requires coding wizardry?
