Now I'm wondering if I should even bother with an avatar at all.
Upto you sonny jim. Might want to take one using a camera instead of a webcam if you decide to continue down the avatar route, the blue pallor does your highly reflective face no favours as you know too well.

Except for some reason now Dave looks older than me.

Or is it just me?

I like these new standardised corporate avatars. Makes cross-promotion much easier.

It's just a overlap thing - it'll be gone in little while, like 'stereo', or 'subtitles'... oh....

I'll have to take a new photo tomorrow as this one's dead old, but my UKTV stylee avatar will do for now. It's good enough for a 10 channel network, it's good enough for me.

Yeah. Best rid of them. Better than sticking pointless information in a stupid position of prominence. Don't think anyone would do that.

Or would they?
