uploading own pictures (avatars)

Very soon we'd fully allow registered players to show their uploaded custom icons/pictures (or avatars) of themselves to everybody in all rooms in Java & Windows games (with better graphical effects). We'd need to restart all servers for that sometime at low traffic (~4 AM)maybe early next week.
Right now, however, it is already possible to upload & show your own avatar and see it on several pages - e.g., player info for Ladder & even in some rooms e.g., Spades, Canasta.
Here's how:
(1) In Manage Account go to 'change your face' & select 'Upload your Own Picture'. (BTW you will have to wait for approval for couple of hours or so)
(2) Go to your Ladder info or Canasta room & check out that new avatar of yours in THREE different dimensions:
- the smallest - in the player list
- the medium one - on the clock when you create a table
- the biggest -- in the informational (dbl-click) dialog

At GameColony.com you can play games of skill only -- play for free or play for $prizes!.
According to the statutes of most states in the United States, gambling is defined as: "risking something of value upon the outcome of a contest of chance". (Also see No Gambling!). The skill (as opposed to chance) is predominant in games of skill. Playing games of skill for $prizes, therefore, has nothing to do with gambling as it is not a contest of chance -- the more skillful player will win far more often. The chance element of a 'gamble' is either insignificant or missing. When players compete in tournaments or games of skill for $prizes -- it is "competitive entertainment" rather then "gambling". The more skilled winner will always win more matches, tournaments and $prizes.
