Sorry but this one got to me.
I am dyslexic. Yes I am smart but I have very poor writing skills. Took till year 12 to understand paragraphs. This meant I had to work twice as hard as others to get the grades. When I finished school my school records and IQ tests were used to start teaching how to recognize learning disabilities in the ACT. I was smarter than most kids and a lot of adults and very quick to teach myself but would suffer when it came to grades due to spelling and punctuation. I could even tutor others on the subjects I was failing. All my records said the same thing. "He understands the work is very articulate but doesn't apply himself in assessments. If he tried harder he would be the top student."

'1103.9TDI used to have a nice avatar.....'

Thanks Kelvin, but I got told to remove it for something more 'suitable', it required 'moderation'!. Can't figure anything more suitable......oh and thanks again for those bits and pieces, came in useful last oil change.....when are you guys coming up FNQ way, for a few beers.....

Which one of your personalities dislikes animated avatars the most?

See my other thread on this topic, you are proof that people should be able to spell etc despite what hurdles they may have to overcome. I started a seperate thread so as not to hijack this one on avatars. If you read the example in the other thread, then perhaps you will see where I was coming from,

I used to think animated avatars are fine, but after spending half the night trying to make one I don't like them anymore. Can I change my vote?
