How do you guys get animation in you avatars? Do you use a flash plugin or what? I've been out of the computer biz for years so if somebody could clue me in I'd appreciate it.

I saw mine somewhere on the net and "borrowed" it.

And as any Pinnacle pilot knows, the big purple dinosaur has special meaning to us....

as far as I know, the only animated avatars that you can use here are animated GIF files. An animated GIF is simply a standard GIF with multiple layers.. you can get any number of shareware programs that will compose animated GIFs. Just make sure you make it small enough to meet the size limit.
