Be your avatar!

[Tuomas]

Heh, I suggest that only the goodlooking people who cannot program, or do any script, like me should put their faces... Just to give this forum a good reputation only that.. I don't have no camera, so if you want to see me, then buy ne one (or visit the http://irc-galleria.net/view.php?nick=Stavrogin). (please don't )

No, actually my avatar has always been much of what I am inside, not what I am outside. Well well aren't we deep today. Sugar mice, hoh. Just do what you think.. ok, Tuomas, out... peep

[Hamelkart]

Whaddaya mean post your picture. This IS may picture. I'm a cross. Handsome one, too. 

[Mordalles]

well, i went and drew my face, painted it in photoshop, then added evil red eyes and sharp teeth with blood in it, and used that as my avatar. is that okay. does that count as a photo? it really does look like me, excpet for the eyes and teeth ofcourse. . . and the blood . . . sometimes . . . :o

[rharpe]

Ok, ok, ok.... BAD IDEA! I get it already...

Hope you don't mind looking at my face for a bit while my avatar is me.

I have myself as my arvater.
But I can't say I've seen anything of what Rharpe's describing, and I have no idea where he got that from.

I do say sir, you look a tad bit like Bruce Lee himself. *compliment*

Besides, you wouldn't want to see all the time would you?

I don't have a problem with it. 

I would agree about the picture in the avatar thingy, if this forum was full of hot, sexy momicitas and not a bunch of programmer types....

No way! You would be confused to whether you were on the right forum. 

I'd like to see more animating arvatars...

...and maybe a better arvater myself... I mean, look.

Animated avatars would be brutal to those that still use 56K connections. (Some people upload pretty large animations that take forever to load.)

I can't read the site, but you are a very nice looking old lady... there is nothing wrong with that image. 

[Nikolas]

Shame really. All you did Rharpe was trying to help...

Seriously though, Andail, I could never imagine that the picture on your avatar was not Bruce Lee!!!!! *compliment, as well* Amazing. Do you also work out and do push ups with your finger?

[Tuomas]

I wan't to see more putting down rharpes idea... I don't think he gets it quite enough yet. Let's give him all the feedback we can.

And by the way, the guy next to me is my Grandmother

[Eggie]

I like hunchback stickman guy...

[Paper Carnival]

Hmm I like my cross avatar, I've had this for ages in every forum that I've been.

Plus, I don't think anyone would want to see this thing coupled with every useless post I make:

[Ghormak]

If I were to copy Andail, it might look something like this.


But I won't use it, because it screams "I'm just trying to look cool. Here are some *favourite paint program* filters."

Unlike Andail's avatar, which is genuinely cool.

[Pet Terry]

And I would look like this:


But I look like some selfish bastard in that one. So I just keep stabbing CJ to the shoulder.

[IM NOT TEH SPAM]

I don't have any valid reason to not post my face.  I have pictures of me, good ones of my face too.  I am just way to lazy...

(Now here's the purely useless reason I have, just to prove myself wrong)

I spend most of my time being homeschooled, making Goose Quest and lurking the forums, and my brother does all artwork for me.  But he barely ever works on it, when working on 3d models and such.  So I'm not working with The Gimp for 3 hours on something like that, when I have so many more important things to do.

Edit: Indeed, animating avatars are cool.  But once again, too lazy.

[Akumayo]

I would agree about the picture in the avatar thingy, if this forum was full of hot, sexy momicitas and not a bunch of programmer types....

c'mon, you can't tell me I'm that bad....okay....you can....especially since I'm too lazy to upload a picture of my sorry ass....

BTW:  Animating avatars RULE!  The Germ lives on!!!

[TheYak]

Mine's gotta be annoying, but at least it's a picture of me.

[IM NOT TEH SPAM]

Y'know, your avatar never really bothered me until you said it was annoying... 

Edit: It's insane.  I just spend a half hour staring at it... :o

[Tuomas]

I could take a picture of my butt, I guess that would do as a face fair enough...?

would look something like this:

[Rui 'Trovatore' Pires]

A pic of a face is good enough in the "real" world. This is a virtual place, though it deals with real people, and allows us extra means of identification. Surely the fact that Mrs. Brisby is my avvie tells you rather more about myself than just my picture. Not a lot more, but a bit.

Not to mention those 30-something reasons not to post your pic on the net.

[Ishmael]

Not to mention those 30-something reasons not to post your pic on the net.

This one? It's hilarious.

[Ashen]

Reason 34:


(Or:
)

And I did (for a month or two, anyway) have myself as an avatar, but I prefer Kobras over there.

[TheYak]

Yep.. just not a good idea:

[rharpe]

Wow, by posting a dumb idea, I've spawned creativity! Imagine that!
