Semi-fixture - Hides Posts, shows Karma and still distributes. If they go missing for a day or two people will get worried.
Fixture - Hides Posts, Stars and starts to slow on the Karma. If they dont post within their usual hours friends will call 911 for them.
Demi-god - Hides everything, omnipresent on the boards. Able to scare newbies off with a single posting.
The last category surely applies just to Ray and he's not demi-god....

I dont know how to do it, I tried to put one on yesterday and it was telling me the pixels had to be below 65 or something, I am a computer illiterate so I just gave up.

Just pay the $10 or however much it is for Premium membership and then you won't be restricted by the 65 x 65 pixel avatar size.
