Yes. All of the above and none of the above.

Okay, I don't recall anyone having done seasonal changes, but I don't see why someone shouldn't.

...people not only change avs but get new names for...the...holidays.
We've not been that festive. I've heard though, that if a forum is particularly sincere, the Yule Qole will grace it with a visit.

And who are the six random members of the community I see on the from page of Maemo.org? Do I really see the same 6 every visit - cos it feels like it?
The maemo.org main page shows five random member avatars...and lardman. The randomness selects from all maemo.org accounts (note: not talk.maemo.org accounts) with avatars.

lardman is constantly displayed because he's quantum.

...will people be offended?
I suspect that the "causes offense to" mapping between "things in the forum" and "forum members" is already Onto. *shruggles*
