Comment Avatars!
Today when you visit Coilhouse, you will see a new feature: the ability to register for the site and upload your own avatar! This avatar will appear next to your name every time you post. We are adding this feature for the wonderful commenters who keep coming back, so that you don’t have to re-type your name/email every time you want to make a new comment. My own avatar comes from Dumbledorepride.com, because I just finished reading Book 7. I always knew!

Avatar showdown – GO!

Oh, dear. And we thought the fan fiction was ribald BEFORE this revelation. ;)

Not exactly what you’d throw out on the Metaverse, but good enough…

in my Stanfield’s, with my anti-wallpaper weapons!

I wonder if J. K. Rowling ever does Google searches on Harry Potter fanfic and sees the unspeakable things that people make her characters do!

She’s joked about the slash fic quite a bit, actually. I’m glad she has such a good sense of humor about it.

Face, schmace. I have a BRAND.

Now all I need is a blurb to follow ze colon.
November 25th, 2007 at 8:39 pm
Until I stumble across something i like better.
November 25th, 2007 at 8:50 pm
it feels cool to see faces with names. that being said, you’re all so beeyootiful!
November 25th, 2007 at 9:33 pm
Good idea. Now I can bring Squidgirl to the party.

Interestink. But it seems like nothing anywhere links people to the profile you fill out.
November 26th, 2007 at 12:22 am
gdholtby, that’s a good point. I’ll see if maybe I can make the avatar click through to a profile, but it might be a while before I get that chance. Thanks for pointing that out! We can see the bios when we login, though – Big Brother is Watching.

Brains, anyone?

Another anatomical part added ;-)
My ill-looking, post laser surgery eye.

How on earth did you avoid the SPOILERS? People are evil like that. ESPECIALLY on the internet.
But good for you, you read it!
(My avatar is a nuclear reactor. Too small though…)

Boom!

nothing lends an air of intimacy to a comment quite so much as a 40 x 40 image of an elephant playing the harmonica.

LOOK INTO MY AVATAR.
November 26th, 2007 at 12:26 pm
lauren, you’re the only one on thread who doesn’t have an avatar! you voyeur :)
Cosmic Anomaly, I saw SO many spoilers online… and they were all wrong. I read the entire book speculating that two characters were for sure gonna die who both lived. So the internet worked in my favor!
November 26th, 2007 at 12:44 pm
Yes, Lauren has one. A purdy one! But for some reason it didn’t show up on her last comment? o_O
El’s avatar for the win.
November 26th, 2007 at 1:05 pm
Haha I forgot to sign in! That’s my punishment for interwebbing on two browsers. I is a stupid.
And Mer, yours is beautiful too. You got some pretty peepers. :)
November 26th, 2007 at 1:34 pm
Oh, OK. I thought that “lauren” and “Lauren” were two different people. Awesome, then!
November 26th, 2007 at 3:22 pm
You were VERY lucky! I ALWAYS hit the real spoilers. I avoid the internet like its a leper colony when I’m reading a new book.
November 27th, 2007 at 7:09 am
Well blow the horn of Gondor, that was neat linkage.
Also – watching you via avatar is nice.
November 27th, 2007 at 2:31 pm
Woohoo! Avatarlicious!
