You can have only one active avatar per profile, so the only way around this would be to create different profiles to post under at each board.

Right now, you have a global profile (T B0NE 10.u). You could give a second local profile essentially the same username (T B0NE 10.brewersfandemonium or T B0NE 10.lambeauleap), and set one of those up with your alternate avatar.

Note that with local profiles, the board name will not be appended to your handle on your "home" board. For instance, ".lambeauleap" won't show up as part of your username here at LambeauLeap. It would show up if you posted under that profile on any other Yuku board. (We have lots of people here whose home board is Brewerfan; that's why ".brewersfandemonium" shows up as part of their usernames here.)

If you opt to do this, the main thing to keep yourself from being driven crazy is to make sure both profiles are under the same account. That way you can switch profiles without logging out by using the "Switch Profile" button in the upper left corner of the navigation area. Or you can be logged in under one profile and post under the other by toggling the "Post As:" popup at the top of the post editor. The other advantage to keeping all profiles under the same account is that if you become a Yuku Supporter, it will apply to all of them.

Instructions for creating a second profile under the same account (do this while logged into your current profile):

1. Navigate to any Brewerfan Yuku page to create a local .brewersfandemonium profile. Or navigate to any LambeauLeap Yuku page to create a local .lambeauleap profile. [Global (.u) profiles are created by navigating to Yuku's home page or any profile page.]

2. Click on the Profile link in the Create box at the top right of the navigation area.

3. Follow the steps.

You'll need to apply for board membership before you can post under the new profile. To bring up the application page, hit any reply button. Rest assured that this would be a "rubber stamp" approval.

Your new profile would start out with a post count of zero. This is something that Yuku staff should be able to manually adjust via a help ticket. If you want to go this route, you'd have to file the ticket yourself. However, I'd be glad to help you come up with a message that you can paste in and send along. Note that you wouldn't be required to have your post count adjusted before you start posting.

EDIT: I failed to mention that any profiles under the same account will share the same Inbox.
