Bouncing Animation: The Ford Floppy Girl

As a four year member of www.f150online.com I would like to register my displeasure at the decision to ban, again, the portrayal of our own version of a "Hooter" girl who is 100% Ford while at the same time permitting the portrayal of real Hooter Girls in a number of owners "sigs"

We own trucks, Ford trucks, which puts us in a class that is rather different than the owners of Buick Regals or Chevrolet Cavaliers or Dodge Neons. We have a sense of humor that is pretty well controlled, I think our morals are far and away above what I see on a number of enthusiast boards that I am registered with.

As a long term member, I am asking Steve and Doug to reconsider the decision to delete "Bouncing Betty Ford" as a part of a sig or as an addon to a post. She is cute, funny and in my opinion totally non-offensive and non-pornographic and adds to the flavor of the board.
Bill

I have to agree with Bill and his statement above.

Being a woman, I can honestly say I am not offended by it in any way....and agree that it's a cute idea. In fact, I have her as my signature on another board that I post frequently on. No one, man or woman has ever said anything negative about her.

It's a cartoon...meant in good humor and for fun. I don't think she should be banned either.

We are all adults here, well for the most part

Kill the animation! It's ugly and it's annoying to see at the bottom and middle of everyone's posts all over the forums.... no matter what forum it is.

Thanks, Gator, for including the "Animation in Question" in your post. First time I've seen it. I don't see it as being offensive, but then again I am a little jaded. Seems like it doesn't offend the one Lady who has posted, Navigirl, either. We are all "mature" adults here who can decide for ourselves what we perceive to be objectionable (well, 01 sport might need a leetle help). Let's see if we can take a poll on its admissability.

Another woman's opinion

I never thought it was a bad toon either. When I get annoyed by her I just scroll faster through the screens. No biggie.
