Honestly, I don't have a problem with it either so long as people aren't particularly jarring. Naturally, in a novel you need some level of consistency or else it looks like a mess, but in a role-play it's fine so long as all of the important information (such as where you are, which could shift in the middle of a post sometimes technically) is available.

Even listing the location is something I only thought should be universal because we're allowed to move around separately, and while a map will eventually specify our locations we don't have such a thing for the first part of the role-play.

Anyway, I don't have an issue with either the format that you or [@tsukune] asked to use in PM, assuming we're all comfortable with not being inherently consistent. The main reason I'm bringing this up is so no one has to ask this question again over PM, since everyone should be seeing this discussion if they're following the OOC.

Admittedly I sort of prefer the idea of the portrait being present in a post, simply because it saves people having to look at the character tab to 'get a feel' for them again, but I won't force this on everyone and I might not do it myself due to the aforementioned problem of Leonard's picture being in fairly bad quality right now -- not to mention me introducing a lot of NPCs could make things really messy, depending on how it's done.

One possible idea I considered was that we'd use our specialized portraits (as in the ones that are going to appear on the map, which NPCs will also potentially have) for the headers, but I didn't want to force this on everyone so I never brought it up. The whole reason I'm mentioning all of this is so I know how everyone feels about it. My priority is for everyone to enjoy the role-play, both all of you as well as myself. With this in mind, I won't be obligating someone to do anything that's not inherently practical.

Edit: I didn't actually think about the whole 'pictures will make my PC screw up easier' thing (blame how sleep deprived I am -- should've been asleep about six or seven hours ago). How likely is this going to be a problem? I ask because browser crashes are a very real and very [i]serious[/i] problem for me.
