Mood-based avatarsFollow

This is a feature that Livejournal has, and I'd like something similar for ZAM.

You can have 3 (or more, for LJ paid accounts) avatars as "active" at any given time. These are labeled with chose names or moods, and you can select them from a drop down menu that appears as you make a post. If no specific one is chosen, it goes to the "default" one.

I'm not sure how feasible coding a similar system into ZAM would be, since all avatar changes for posts are currently retroactive, but I think it would be a nifty feature to have avatars change based on mood here as well.

The two clicks that it currently takes to change an avatar is an atrocity.

Having different avatars for different posts isn't feasible at all currently. Being able to select a few as "active" so you can switch between them quickly would be doable, but somewhat pointless.

We're going to implement moon based avatars instead. All new avatars have to have a picture of the moon, a piece of cheese (because moons are made of cheese!) or a spaceship in them from this day forth, or else somewhere, somehow, a duck will glare at you unrelentingly.

Dragon avatars are of couse exempt...

Sounds like a trap. I got reprimanded for having a moon based avatar.

The Hasbro MLP Facebook page recently "liked" someone point out an animation error in that scene with Pinkie Pie. On a return shot to her, the cake at her feet disappears.
