Under display preferences, you can turn off all of the avatars. You can't pick and choose though.

Oh, and just tolerate the avatar. How bad can it really be?
Actually, one avatar comes to mind i'm sure most people have seen. Since he doesn't post much in Unplugged, it isn't really a problem for me, but that avatar is the sole reason that could prompt me to use the ignore feature. It flashes brightly and is extremely annoying. I haven't heard of anyone that has said they like it, but everyone i know that has seen it has complained to the guy, and he ignores their complaints.

This would be really simple to do in OmniWeb; just add the URL of the avatar to your content block list. It's probably just as easy in PithHelmet, which blocks content in Safari.
In either case you're looking at two steps (get the URL, add it to the list).

Looks like a rabbit to me, if we're talking about the same one. Yes, that's hardcore creepy.

Hmmm, I wasn't sure if it was a dog or a pig!
And if it's not sexual, why is he half (or perhaps all the way) naked?

Re: Ignore only an Avatar ??
I'd be very interested in seeing this avatar of which you speak.
It's not what it sounds like. It's actually that of a new guy who dropped in one day and drew attention to himself by starting a flame war. I don't remember the specifics. I was on the sidelines. Someone made a comment about the "dog or pig" he was holding, and him being topless, and it made me laugh. That is the only reason I knew what NoExit was referring to.
Here he is.

Ah digi-j's avatar. I not sure it actually crosses the inappropriate line, but I agree it is something I'd rather not look at. I'll poll the other mods on it.
