Below is a list of recent avatars. Warning: the list can and almost certainly does contain adult content. If you’re sure this won’t bother you, click here to display the list.

Simply put, it’s a site that allows you to create “rotating” avatars. By “rotating”, I mean that each time the avatar is reloaded, another randomly chosen image appears, from a list that you specify. Regardless of the image displayed, the avatar uses a single unchanging URL. In other words, it’s an avatar rotator. There is also a gallery [Warning: possible adult content] of avatars which contains many examples.

There really isn’t one. AvatarRatava is just a simple little web gadget that lets you have an image-randomizing avatar (or as many as you like). It also allows you to share those avatars with others.

Anywhere you like, but it’s designed to be used on message boards like ezboard that permit you to use a URL to an image as your personal icon (“avatar”). Rather than have a fixed, unchanging image, your avatar will be dynamic.

No. Once there is a sufficient number of users, the site will be ad-supported. I see no other way to make it work.

I have neither the time nor the inclination to filter or moderate adult content. The site can and probably does contain adult content. Use avatars created by others at your own risk. Because avatars are considered to be a public resource, they can never be deleted once they have been created. However, the creator can edit them at any time, often with (un)amusing results for those using the avatars.

If you are offended by adult content, I would recommend not using this site.
