A while ago, we mentioned that the entire Gothamist network was phasing out "Guest" comments and bringing in a profile system that includes nifty avatars. As part of that, those of you who have registered and have made comments may have noticed the image of a panda by your words.
While cuddly and adorable, the baby panda doesn't suit everyone. You can change your avatar. If you already have a profile, go to the Edit Profile link on the top left of the page and upload a 100 x 100 pixel image. The next time you comment, you'll see an image that represents you next to what you have to say.
The arrival of avatars means the imminent departure of the ability to comment as a guest. You can create an account on our registration page. The process is painless compared to the hoops you have to jump through to get registered on other sites. If you are concerned about matters of privacy, you can read the Gothamist privacy policy.

The sooner guest comments are gone, the better.
