Popular Post canuckamuck Posted June 28, 2012 Popular Post Share Posted June 28, 2012 This thread is only for members with an avatar. Because one can't expect to be taken seriously when they are merely a default silhouette. The avatar is a wonderful thing when it accompanies a post. From this pictorial representation a reader will automatically know whether to move on or to pay close attention, because the member represented by the graphic is likely to have previously distinguished themselves through oral incontinence or with a pleasing regularity. it is a wonderful time saver by which I can breeze through pages of posts, alighting only upon those likely to bear pearls. Personally I have several favorites which I will not mention for fear they would err under overwhelming public interest. This thread is Blether approved. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beechboy Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 Funny man. Not quite as funny as your avatar though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rsquared Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I am so glad that it got the official approval from theblether. I also have come to recognise avatars that arouse my interest and look forward to that persons' comments........until someone started a thread showing how you can change your avatar, then I had to do a double-take, as I had to focus on the name instead of the avatar. But as I am totally new to forums I like some of the imaginations behind the choices of avatars. All good fun. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theblether Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I can confirm that the OP requested permission to start this thread, and said permission was granted. All rights are reserved for the purpose of this thread and theblether shall not be held responsible for the content or consequences of said thread. As for the actual point in hand, I agree, it's handy to scour over threads and pick up on posts from members that are in the habit of making sense. On the other hand, it's handy for finding posts from members that wind you up, so all round, it's a winning idea!! ps. You set me up there Canuckamuck, you b*st^rd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cooked Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 when I get a 'like' I find it much easier to see which post it was that has been liked when browsing through a couple of hundred posts. There again, I don't get many, so my avatar (labelled 'prat' on my desktop) may be superfluous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PattayaParent Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I only use it to find my own posts quickly in a thread. I don't really look at others, I read the posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smokie36 Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 My avatar is a reference to a particular spot on a favourite island. Hopefully it will receive the official theblether stamp of approval next month. I have sent word to the owners and they are having the hammock strengthened in honour of his impending visit. All our fingers are crossed in hope of receiving this prestigious award. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kerryk Posted June 28, 2012 Share Posted June 28, 2012 I used to have one. Remember? But someone stole it. I didn't do anything to it. It was after a conversation with Canucamuck or Semper. I suspect one of them has it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
