The Changing of the Avatar - WARNING: Extremely Narcissistic Thread

So I'm thinking about changing my avatar, and I wanted to elicit some of your thoughts.   Some people change avatars all the time, some people change them now and then, and others well, they just never change them.

What do you guys think of the rolling avatar?   

Do any of you like mine and want to see it stay, or would you prefer it change?

Finally, if you think I should change mine, post a suggestion.

Don't change the photo, just occasionally change the words over it - see if anyone's paying attention.

I say keep the same one. It makes it easier to spot the members who are worth reading when scrolling through a thread.

You should change your avatar to a famous and influential head of state. I chose Kemal Ataturk, who brought Turkey out of centuries of religious chauvinism and patriarchal darkness into the light of reason, egalitarianism and the brotherhood/sisterhood of all beings.

Your current avatar looks like a booger-eating imbecile, and I often don't read your posts because of it.

Thanks. When I'm famous I'll buy you a tapir. They're the animal that is the inspiration for the "Eeyore" in the "Winnow the Pooh" graphic novels.

Here is one painted to look like a panda:

So this might be a little more to your liking?

That looks a lot like me when I was a lad. Haha, those were the days. I remember them fondly.

Once, I flipped my avatar so that the guy was looking to the left instead of the right.
I live on the edge.

I say change it.



I recommend an avatar containing elements of Dune, religion, & alcohol. If not that, then Bender from Futurama provides solid recognition.

Man, 2/3.  That was close.  Fucking love Dune.  If it wasn't for Showgirls, I would not have been a fan of the movie though.  Kyle MacLachlan taught me why I should have been paying more attention to Jessie than Kelly in my early years.

I remember that time.  It took me a while to recognize you.  Then you changed it back.  ****sigh****

:P

I fucking love trailer park boys.
I see you've changed it a couple of times...it is funny to me if folks prefer you to wear your glasses or not in your avatar photo   8) ::)

I flew Avatarless for a long while, then selected a classic Marley pic.  For some reason, I'm back to being sans avatar (not a choice I made -- maybe a system issue?)...

How do I go about putting up an avatar again?  I poked around in the Your Profile, Account Settings area but found nothing.  Sorry to be such a non-techie about it.

Go to Your Profile.
Then in the left sidebar under Modify Profile, click "Forum Profile" - change it there.
At least I think that's how you do it. I hardly ever change mine.  ;)

Here's yours truly. Not sure it would work as an avatar.

What a view and some very nice wings there, YP.

Hi, Seraphim... I tried what you said... is there no longer a cache of images we can choose from (I think that's where I found the Marley pic)?  I oughta just find some image on the internet I suppose and use that....
