How to encourage people to set an avatar?

Looks OK to me.
If you don't like the way that it is cropped in the thread view (i.e. here, next to your name), just upload a square version. If you're not sure how to do this, the easiest way (although I'm happy to be corrected) is probably just to click on the little avatar here to view the full size version, right-click on that to save it to your computer, then re-upload it. Since the new one is square, it shouldn't be cropped.
Like Vienna, avatars mean nothing to me. On all forums I frequent, I'm familiar with a name, not a picture, but then I don't necessarily read the name correctly - I think I just recognise it by how the letters have been structured rather than take in the name. If I ever make the conscious effort to read them out in my mind, a lot of the time they're not actually pronounced how I subconsciously thought they were.

Until i made such an effort, i always thought citricsquid was criticsquid, thus kind of expecting the aforementioned to be determined to 'sift mosquitoes' at the slightest provocation with all tentacles blazing.
After this exercise, the cephalopod in question became much more lemony - or even worse limey, as i once made the mistake of ordering a ceviche de pulpo, the eating of which haunts me to this day.
Then
appeared.
Which was, on the whole, a much more satisfactory state of affairs.
I have taken the liberty of finding a higher quality version of your avatar, @kyoto49 (after using TinEye to figure out what it was), and editing it so that it is square, which means it won't be cropped by The Forum and will display in all its glory in all locations. I hope that's OK! If not, please let me know and I will refer to the old one.

i have just realised what captainpish's avatar is, and literally LOLed (ok, it was more of a chuckle, but i don't think COL will catch on):
did you get that from google, @captainpish or do you actually own that signed photo? if it's the latter, colour me jealous..

Mines never changed!
Apart from the occasional festive hat - little Austin is doing rather well!
(As an avatar - not a rat - he died a while ago RIP)
