Are others experiencing avatar challenges...are the "Y/A Watchdogs"..?

messin' with me,or is there a genuine Y/A system glitch? Also,If I must embrace my new representation,is there a way to trade the "red x" for a green or purple hue? Red just speaks "angry" to me, while green represents life and purple is so mysterious...Oh yeah,Please quote something that would be concidered "spiritual" in nature...

Update:

Rats!! "considered"

Update 2:

Update 3:

Update 4:

    There's a glitch. I, and many others, like you, haven't been able to use pictures as avatars, at YA, these last days. That's why I'm using the cartoon avatar.This happened many times before, and there's nothing we can do about it, but hope it will be fixed soon.

    Good luck!! :)

    Big hugs!!

    I saw someone's earlier today that changed from one to another, over and over again. Just in the space of a few minutes or so. I thought it was a glitch too.

    My face comes and goes. I did not realize how attached I was to me. I have put out flyers on telephone poles and at the Quick Mart offering a reward for information leading to my face.

    I changed mine only because other newer Yahoos seemed to be copying it in every detail.

    Except for that, I think Yahoos should stick with their avatar so they are easily remembered.

    Changing your avatar is like plastic surgery. Why hide your face?

    i hope y/a can clean some of them up. I'm no prude but there are some that are in very poor taste. this is not a pron site. you should not be allowed to use close up pictures of body parts. we all know the ones I'm talking about.

    Many people are reporting problems; I think it's a glitch that will be worked out.

    I wonder of all of this avatar glitch has anything to do with a certain friend of your, and his commitment to pray for people when he saw their avatars?

    Oh no!!! Maybe the yahoo gods have given you ........ the mark of Cain!

    "Then the Lord put a mark on Cain's head so that no one who found him would kill him." (NIV version)

    So that must mean that trolls won't be able to have your account deleted because ........ you have the mark of Cain.

    Can I have one?
