Sure! Though, I have to admit I was never really keen on paulinstl's "'Kermit the Frog' givin' it to some dude (I can't recall whom right now) from behind" animated GIF. Point is, no avatar, pic displayed in a signature or graphic used in a message should cross acceptable bounds of taste. That one was right on the border. And, yes, Steggie appointed himself here  and  on that. 
Now, if you are talking about donating some to me  that I would upload to our avatar or smiley database, the only other concern would be size. Animated or otherwise, heavy graphics make for heavy web pages that require mucho bandwidtho, and since this is already a "graphically-heavy" site, "full-featured" as some like to say , which I want to keep that way,... well, you get the picture I am painting, I hope.
In any event, thanks for being courteous and asking, my cannabis-lovin' friend!

That first went up on another board, as it's banner. The face is/was CM...T's, who if you follow the gekk board begs to be moderator where ever he go's.  That was one hell of a NO! 
I'm sure plenty of people here had no clue as to who it was, but, definately, just thinking about it brings a grin every time. I can definately see it as more of an adult content gif though.
Good times, good times.

Wow... people still listen to Joy Division? That was a group who I thought I'd never hear again. |

I've been in a 80s rediscovery mode lately musically. Th Cure, Pixies, Depeche Mode, Violent Femmes, New Order / Joy Division, and even ::ashamed:: Prince.

Yo bgsgfan, you ever listen to Manic Street Preachers? Really depressing shit, but I love it. Can't go wrong with Travis or Coldplay either... |

Never listened to MSP - will download some and check it out. Travis and Coldplay are OK, but, IMHO, after Radiohead the whole Britpop scene just seems....well, OK.
Grunge also is OK - gotta say that I like Pearl Jam better than any of the bands you listed (but they really aren't grunge IMHO). The Pumpkins are damn good too - my personal fav song of theirs (I forget the title) goes, "The world is a vampire", but everything from Siamese Dream and Melon Collie is good. I especially like them because their albums are more than just a collection of songs.

The song is called Bullet with Butterfly Wings... I have a live version that kicks ass.
If you're going to check out MSP, start with their song called "Black Dog on my Shoulder" or "The Everlasting"... my favorites. Keep in mind, you have to be in a cetain "mood" to appreciate them. Enjoy.

and (with a lisp and a limp wrist) that one isn't tasteless. It's just tasty! 
And, it's my masterpiece, the work of my loins! 
Great precursor! 
You wouldn't even know! 
Just keep thinking about and discussing (right here is fine) your favorite music/songs, fellas! Really hone in on some of your "PERSONAL" all-time favorites!
