I have noticed this week (maybe today, although it might have been there Monday or Sunday and my mind isn't holding the information in an orderly fashion) that there are "faces" connected with some of the articles comments--mine, and John "A1nut"'s, and no others that I found on the first two pages of comments. Mine is a pinkish-purple (puce?) square with uplifted eyes and a smile, on a dark gray background; his is a light green octagon on a light gray background with one eye closed and a twisted mouth.
I can't figure out why or how they appear there; there is nothing in my profile about pictures or images, and Eric (who has commented frequently on the articles) does not appear to have one assigned to him. They don't appear on the boards themselves, only in the administrative areas for comment editing, but they have me wondering what changed, and whether it's cause for concern.
