Default Avatars - love them or Loathe them?

I am a bit of a Poker Stars or Absolute fan, where you can download your own image (or Kylie ).

Which do you prefer, that, or the Party/Poker room style with a virtual person in the seat, or nothing at all like UB, Paradise or Crypto skins?

I play party with no chairs no people nothing at all. But I like pokerstars the best, the avatar doesnt clutter the screen like the gay ass party people/chairs, and a pic is much easier to remember reads on than some jibberrish name

Of course that works in reverse as well. Ideally I guess, you would leave your picture blank (I don't). The tables at Absolute are so cluttered that I need my picture to quickly see where I am when multitabling. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I got a nice pic, the guys get all turned on and distracted by me. I can take their chips and then they want to play strip poker with me.

Or you can just look at which seat has cards face up.

I don't have a problem with remembering names, I wish you could disable avatars on Absolute.
