No Sluggo, I don’t think you should change your avatar. Too many changing faces all ready, I feel like I am posting with strangers, only to read their name tags and see they are good friends.

The guy with the Avatar avatar really, really, really, really needs to change his avatar though.

Honestly, I usually picture people as their avatar, and then their personalities start to change my perception of that picture.

Oh snap, Diet Gaff is even re-posting old Gaff posts! Caffeine-free should probably try something similar.

Damn. Spots are still open for Gaffer Tape Zero and New (But Starts an International Incident) Gaffer Tape.

Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.

This thread is an extreme disappointment. I think I'll make a "Tex Murphy" thread so we can talk about avatars.

GRRRRAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(I agree about the Avatar avatar - extremely disturbing)

This reminds me of the SW discussion thread that was started here in the OT.

Wrong thread - you're looking for the "I changed my avatar" thread.

I could never change my avatar, now that I think about it. At least re-size it or clean it up, but that's it. I am Sluggo.

And I've been meaning to ask: C3PX, is your avatar an hassidic ewok? The beard and the skull-cap are a good look for you.

It's a disguise.

So is this.

And this.

CP3S adopted his disguise when bkev and I stole his original ewok avatar. Good times!

What he said.

Yeah, I guess I was kind of going for a Jewish look with my disguise. I kind of like it though, so I think I'll hang onto it for a while. Till someone gets offended and PMs me about it, that is.

I don't know what to do w/my avatar right now

Here's your solution...

TV's Frink said:

Pfft...just take your current avatar and draw a bad disguise on it.

I'm not talking to those kind of crabs.

The one in your avatar is still icky.

Yep. So no one really even recognizes your face anyway, therefore the avatar you use and the frequency with which you change it doesn't even matter.

Wait, is roboty Octorox the same as innappropriate death star impregnation picture Octorox? WEIRD!

But not the same as Video Game Avatar Leia, right?
