O.K. Guys- I have a question about avatars. I have looked through Able2Know's catalogue of avatars. I have scoured different animation sites. I like the avatar that I have, but I was looking for something that imparted the essence of ME.

How come female avatars consistently picture gorgeous 20 something babes? How about some good looking old broads that I could relate to? Very Happy

You mean that avatar is not representative of you? It fits how I think of you in my minds eye. I like it and think you should keep it.

Phoenix, i just wish you'd stop starin' at me . . .

I really enjoy the avatars, and they produce some strange effects. For a while, i had a picture of a young man in chain mail armor, because Setanta in Irish legend was a young warrior . . . it was not exactly what i wanted, though, and then Lovey told me someone asked her if that was how i pictured myself--well, of course not, i know i'm an overweight, middle-aged man, and have no problem with that image. I like Jespah's doggie picture, and so i chose my current pic--which is of an old friend of mine, who, saddly, passed away about 2 1/2 years ago.

But the avatars do effect how you react--Lola's lovely legs do distract, and i do sometimes get the feeling that Phoenix is starin' at me. Merry Andrew disconcerts me, because i keep seein' that pic and thinkin' he's gonna run fer President. Maybe i'll just get a pic of myself and post it here . . .

Setanta- But I AM staring at you! Mr. Green


When I was in school, I used to doodle eyes. Large, luminous eyes like in my avatar. I used to love it during the days of the movie, "Cleopatra". I would make my eyes up so I would look like Liz (I wish! Very Happy )

Heyas lunar canine!

And lookee - it's a real pic o' Setanta!

Phoenix - as you can imagine - ahem - Craven found most of the avatars being used on the site. If you find me some you like, I think I can persuade him to add 'em.

Oh - question - Craven would like to upload a number of new avatars (hundreds, really), but that will cause all current avatars to be 'broken'. They won't be gone; you'll just have to reselect your avatar. Is everyone all right with that? I'll post a more general inquiry on the site.

I lubs yer avatar, Phoenix!

But anyone on the site can use it, if it's a site avatar, yanno.

I don't think we'll be moving any preexisting avatars out of their current locations, so relocating your pic shouldn't be too hard. But Craven knows about that better than I do.

Well I might be deleting some of the excess anime that nobody seems to like. I can ditch the "babes" too and real fashion magazines or something.

Well, tall ya what. I'll do this right now. We'll see how it goes.
