I had been thinking the same the thing but didn't bother reporting it  
because it didn't seem like a show stopper in the efforts to get  
everything ready for release. But since you've opened the subject, how  
about building it all into a single pop-up menu? Maybe something like  
this...

Show avatars:
None
G
PG, G
R, PG, G
X, R, PG, G

Or maybe

Show avatars rated at or below:
Don't show
G
PG
R
X

I like the way the second one reads, but I wonder if there is  
widespread enough understanding of the sequence of movie ratings  
outside of the English speaking audience.
