i mean, at least this namesake radio personality demonstrated real intelligence:

No, that's meant to look like that.

Really? Bizarre.

I noticed that elsewhere you use a different one that actually looks as
if it might be something.

I did? Where|2ver did i do that?

My mistake, I confused your X-Face with Blueshirt's in e-s.s; apologies.

I stand by my comment about your own X-Face;
what is it supposed to be?

I've just had another look at Blue-Maned_Hawk's X-Face.
He's encoded it, no wonder it doesn't work here.

This is his header (which I've had to rewrap so that it will post):-

When you've decoded it, what does the XFACE image look like?

The whole point is that it does not render correctly here.

Yes, you have an X-Face in your header. I always thought those were silly, but if you're going to use it you might as well send something vaguely useful with it.

I think its a fun chance to make a silly drawing!
