Luke has one so I believe they are already allowed. Personally I don't like sites with avatars. I have children and unfortunately many people use avatars to post their favorite girly pic. I don't visit those sites. Hopefully we can keep the avatars here gun related.
I'll have to check this out because I thought I have them ON. I will let everyone use avatars as long as they are within reason. No sexual stuff, no profanity, you know....use common sense.
