As for his looks, to me they don't seem saleable at BYU.
So you think that I should change my avatar because BYU students back in the sixties probably didn't approve of Dylan or his appearance?

I just like his music. In some of his younger pictures he looks pretty good, and dress & grooming violation or not some guys just look better with a little scruff.

If I change my avatar because it's Dylan are you also suggesting that I change my username? I can't do that, I've whole-heartedly embraced it as part of my identity. It just wouldn't feel right for me to change my username.
