Doe's "hello dolly" see himself as Billy Idol (young and cool) ? How about WinnietheKhwai does he see himself as a laughable bull ? Semper as a goofy buffoon. Lawrencechee as a dog. How about MESmith is he slim and cool or morbidly overweight. What do you think goes into choosing a photo to represent themselves One more "uptheheos" a butch bearded guy with a ridiculous little cowboy hat, what do you think he really looks like a skinny wimp who can't grow a beard

Ah, yet another American PhD thesis!

I've played acoustic guitar almost daily since I was 11 years old. Mostly folk music in my early days down in Greenwich Village, moving through various musical genre over the years (blues, jazz, pop, New Age, etc.,) but basically I'm a folk guitarist. Not a great one, just a fairly steady one. Can't sing worth a damn, but I manage to get a song across so that folks don't go running for the exits. I had a picture of Clapton as my avatar for a while, until I ran across this one of Gordon Lightfoot. Being that I play a lot of his songs, and not much Clapton, I figured it was a better choice and changed.

Ahhh, yet another American PhD thesis!

Riding a hog and wearing mascara Richard - have you been on the raspberry vodka again?

I picked this avatar because it's a close facsimile of my actual face, but less goofy.

Do you need help with the big words?

LSD: permanent brain damage.

Mine is a professionally done headshot. I have yet to get any callbacks. I just cannot understand why for the life of me.

What about those like myself that don't have an avatar,,, should we be banished into the "who gives a xxxx" group?

Memories.

Kind of. I'd say more like nattering nabobs of negativity.

Gee i wonder why ME Smith chose his avatar, or why winnie chose a buffalo.

and what could possibly explain my pic?

i think the OP would be better off trying to understand why the usernames were chosen, rather than the avatar.

but then i reckon he would be better off turning off the computer and going for a swim

I looked at my passports.

I think avatars are fascinating, they really do reveal your soul.

I'm actually Bob Dylan.

I know, but how to tell them what they missed out on?

It reminds me what happens after a few Leos

It was in my My Pictures folder. I moved the mouse and clicked on the little button that said 'open'' or 'use' or somesuch.

They would think we were daft as the iPod won't compute.

In Thailand the other could be your dad

I am cool and slim.

I had the striking photo on my facebook page a long time before TV came along,so then i had to find a related member name.

Ended up looking for racehorse names starting with eye....

Realised afterwards I had created a rod for my own back as the definition of eyecatcher is "a noun or person that attracts attention"

being a very quiet and shy guy I have had to keep up the pretence of talking BS and being contraversial for over a year now.....AND ITS JUST NOT ME!!

I'd messed with my photo a few months before... chose this avatar for lack of anything else better...
