PM (and all)...

I know that you think those clever avatars that give you an online identity just spring whole from you imagination like Venus from Zeus' brow, but in fact, they are created for you by imaginative entrepreneurs called "artists", who must compete, as must all life on this planet, to establish a niche  for themselves, which means getting all up in the public's grill to announce their existence and draw the positive attention of that one in one-hundred people who have been waiting for that artist to arrive on this planet to share their work and thus allow them to enhance their own identity by relating to it and joining their appreciation with that of others who have also made the discovery.

However, that leaves 99 out of one hundred who merely ignore the artist, or, in the case of the Internet, spend their free time shitting all over his efforts in their own attempt at "creativity" which, of course, is always welcome by fellow shit-minded folks, but by no one else.

Not that this information will change a damn thing about our dynamic, of course. I just thought you might like to know what your role in my enterprise is, be you the one or the other 99  ;D

Then why not promote the really good comic-book style artwork (a cursory view of your page had a very well-drawn Mystique) rather than an unfunny parody about Cleveland Steamers for the Steam-Powered?

Speaking as someone whose avatar, like many of those here, is clearly a photographic self-portrait, I find that rant extremely confusing.

I don't have much of an opinion one way or the other on Mr. Ray's work, but I sure would like to see this thread l0x0rzd.
