I Lost My Avatar aka F@#$ Getty Images

[Surely]

I wouldn't mind that

I hear you have the sexiest ankles in the UK. firestarter told me.

You can always take a similar picture. Why not one with the model pulling down voluminous tighty whities?

Keep your sick fantasies to yourself.

Wow, I feel sorry for you, maybe you could contact the photographer directly ?
Anyway, I hope my son doesn't claim his rights over my avatar ...

We'll see what we can arrange. Wouldn't like to disappoint my loyal fans...

 

[Tilpots]

That's just silly. How anal do you have to be to prowl Internet forums for violations?

Anybody else get tabbed?

It's not just the ankles, stridemat's reckoned to have a fantastic pair of legs.

His fantasy football team is called Thigh High Socks, clearly he's trying to draw attention to his pins.

I just use my own face- with accessories of course.

Finally, some background from my Twitter info.

At first I suspected some Quisling, who disliked rdowns opinions.

Now I see that this is merely an effort to scratch more profit Internet-wide.

Nice.

I say we all use it to stick it to the man.

Hmm... I should spam MacRumors with meaningless posts to get an avatar....

Not a good idea as that would very likely result in getting them all deleted.

I wonder how many other avatars around the site they are going to go after.

Does the original photographer still own the image or did he sell it to Getty.
