Do you picture people as their avatar?

If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!

Do you picture people as their avatar?

Post by Trixie Belden »

Plain and simple, do you picture people as their avatar? Am I now going to be thought of as Lucy by most people? I tend to think of people as their avatar, unless it's some inanimate object like a tree or something. Then I go by their sig or their name. Are you thrown off by people changing their sets?

Questions, questions, questions!

Um... Hopefully you don't think of me as Larry, although he is cute. :D sometimes I do think of people as their avvie, I guess, like I picture Monty as that singer in his set... no Trixie, I actually think of you as the actual Trixie Belden. Btw, I used to read those books all the time. They were great. :D

Yes, I do. It makes me imagine what their personality is like.

If somebody wears an avatar for a really long time then I do.

She left many of us behind. She left us heartbroken. And though we cry now there'll come a time when we'll laugh. Because we'll see her again someday. We'll be with her in heaven. And when we go to heaven she'll be there to greet us. She'll be there to say "Welcome home." -From a poem that SnC wrote about her grandmother

I sometimes do. I hope people picture me as the little robot guy in mine. Though, I still picture ric as the hot-dog hat avatar he had a while back.

Catspaw is a Care Bear
Pseudonym is a guy holding a shoe up to his head
Top is some wrestling dude
Laura Ingalls is... Laura Ingalls

Those can never be erased from my memory. :P

Haha, that was fun. \:D/

I wish people would picture me as my avatar. That would save a lot of trouble.

I always recognize Top from his Hammer Brothers rank. Catspaw always wears something pink and cuddly. For the longest time AE had an avatar of some tall guy - I think it's in the avatar gallery. Jelly had an igloo avatar for quite a while. Dr. Watson has long had a guy in a black hat.

I suppose I do. :-k

I don't picture ToOers as their avatar, but I do distinguish who is who by looking at the avatars instead of the username. So, when someone changes their avatar, I am a bit thrown off.

Yes! You were a perfectly good Apple! (But Larry is ok too)
It's been awhile, hasn't it?
