Do You Ever Take A Dislike To A Tv Member Because Of Their Avatar?

[micksterbs]

I was thinking of using this avatar when I joined-up. Decided against it as it might have sent the wrong message. Still makes me grin, though.

I'm fairly certain that I've seen this used elsewhere but can't remember where.

What, Garro; on this board? In that case I'm even more glad I decided against it.

[bendix]

Actually, I can think of one avatar that always makes me wonder why the poster chose it. I'm referring to the "Stalin writing" avatar. Sorry poster, I can't remember your name off the top of my head but let me say right away that I can't detect any trace of cruel, genocidal tyrant in your posts which always leaves me wondering what motivated you to choose Stalin, of all people.

No trace of cruel, genocidal tyranny in my posts?

You really do need to read more closely, otherwise I'll send Beria round to your place.

Stalin? A great big loveable oaf with a sharp tongue and a growing sense of impatience with idiots. He reminds me of someone near and dear.

I wonder who?

[percy2]

Its probably got a lot of us wondering just how near and dear we are to bendix

Wouldn't it be cool if TV could block everyone's avatar/screen name for a day and then run a guessing game to see who posted what?You could still control it through the mods,though we could not see each other as such.....well April Fool day joke maybe.Do you like my lips Ping BTW?

Luscious lips are far more inviting than a blinking eyeball - even if they are both parts of the same person.

No, N EVER

[thaiclan]

Oh dear, now I realise the effort some members take to find an avatar that reflects their personality it puts me dam_n right to shame!

I signed up and had no avatar, then found one by googling "cool avatar" and selected one from the first page!

Actually my original one was eventually (took several posts) asked to be removed as there was too much breast showing...?

Anyway I flicked to this annoying irritating one after that! Maybe that is me.......

[Momo8]

Sure I do but then there is no pleasing some people.Avatars like screen names portray an image after all.If they don't give people epileptic fits then no worries mate.

I think the mods have been having enough 'fun' as it is lately. Let's not give them any ideas for other things to have 'fun' with, hey?

[Zpete]

I see 63 votes for yes in people annoyed by avatars.

Ping, you voted 50 times yet?

I know ya luffs mine eye. hehehe

[Ping]

Pete - I voted 'No'. Some avatars can be annoying, but I don't judge people by them, I judge them by their posts.

[ignoramus]

micksterbs, I think your av is in the top 3 (forget the other 2). Love those lips boo (forget the original, but it sounds good).

Am looking forward to seeing weekendwarrior's altered slightly, to reflect an unfortunate, but nevertheless most amusing, misfiring. In the 'tragic' sense.

999 pardons Momo - been giving more thought to your suggestion. I responded in the other thread.

As for weekendwarrior, I think it would be a case of, "I wuz cleening ma peece and it blowed ma head cleen off!"

Quirky is good,there too many people who take themselves far too seriously on here.I love many avatars here,Kat,Mick,Zpete,Boo,Sbk,Wolfie to name a few.

Normal is boring after all people.

[WeekendWarrior]

Just jelaous coz I have a bigger gun than you.

[Momo8]

Well Freud does say that some men try to compensate for their lack of a large sexual organ through representing themselves with big cars,guns whatever hehehehe.

[garro]

Just jelaous coz I have a bigger gun than you.

When I see an avatar of a man with a gun I can't help but assume the worst about them.

Very judgemental I know.

Well, yours is certainly different, Momo8. Almost hypnotic in a pleasant way. "The eyes have it" after all.

Um, it might be too abstract a notion for you to grasp but, actually, not everyone owns a gun. Sorry to have to break it to you like that...

[Momo8]

I adore yours Mick wish I had one so cool.Nothing wrong with an EYE avatar just like big sister is watching you.

I tell you the truth, I used my left point finger wanting to take out the ant but I stopped in time. I thought there was an ant on my screen. Your avatar is so funny
