this has been an ongoing decision, for months and months...the latest issue just brought it again to the forefront. Believe me, I get PM's from users and emails from guests on this all the time....this is not a new issue, but one I'm finally making a statement on.

Making the 35% warning rule consistent means all avatars and profile pics must comply...users can choose to read or not read a thread with a 35% warning in the title. If they read a tech thread and come across a 35% avatar, they don't have the option "up front" to avoid them. Guests never have that option either. And many businesses do monitor images closely.

This makes the tech portions of the forum "work safe" and "family safe" for all.
