Perhaps the "Donate" button at the bottom of the left hand nav bar for at least the cash donor part of your question.

You get the "cash donor" image by being a cash donor. That means donating something to help run the site. The Donate button is at the bottom of the sidebar at left of your screen.

I'm going to be a curmudgeon and disagree. One of the "cool" things about this site is how dirt simple it is. Go to Toyotanation, Tundratalk or (insert some non-Toyota forum here) and pages take forever to load, lots of ads and fluff and junk. BITOG loads pages at a decent clip, and for the most part I just want to read the comments pretty quickly.

After a while I recognize user names and sig lines. Not sure why I'd "follow" anyone, this isn't some social site, getting likes and dislikes. I guess it is a bit of a social site, since many of us are here (way too much!) but I rather like the minimalist approach.

Agreed. The avatars on most sites simply look stupid.

I have always appreciated the simple BB look of this site.

Especially the ones with motion or flashing graphics; those can be horribly distracting. No avatars for me, please.

But then again, I only reluctantly departed from text-only Usenet, so...
