    Its most likely a two step process to change avatars. You stop using your current one, then select another one to use

    This reputation thing, I sense that it's prone to abuse/misuse. I request that it be disabled.

    The reputation rating has a lot of safe guards built into it to prevgent abuse. It would be very difficult if not impossible to have a "reputation war." If it becomes a problem then it will be disabled - or it will become harder for one person to effect another's overall rating. How much your reputation votes count depend on how long you've been here, your post count, and you're reputation.

    **EDIT**
    Thantos, you wanna try the 2-step process for us and tell us if it works? I don't feel like accidentally deleting my avatar

    this is not a bug bot something which I personally find really annoying: the signature is squeezed up right underneath the message body. When the message body has only one line, it gets really cluttered. Is there a way to have all the signatures align with the buttom of the post, rather then right after the message? Look at picture below (using cheez as example )

    this would look much nicer:

    Avatars have been fixed and enabled. Just enter a file and click save changes.

    Were the scroll bars from the code boxes purposely removed? If not then its a bug that they are gone.

    I miss them already

    They don't seem to be working in some browsers, so I disabled them entirely. (In IE 5.2 for Mac OS X, adding scroll bars hid all of the code shown in a code box.)

    Like someone said before, what happens to people without a mousewheel? I tried arrow keys and pageup/down, they didn't work.
