i found new animated images and i was thinking to put one as my avatar but i fear that people won't recognise me anymore at first sight..and i have many friends here..and we all recognise ourselfs by the avatars and changing it i think it will make it harder for my friends to find me:(

YOu can inform all your friends through PM and change the avatar, if you have better better one and dislike the existing one. For others, it is the contents of the discussion topic that is important than the container.

Many people here change their avatar frequently, I keep thinking about changing mine but cannot find any appropriate. I understand that most people become accustomed to seeing a certain avatar which registers as familiar before they even notice the username, but this should be a problem. The avatar displayed next to your username will change in your friends list of friends as well, so they will be aware of the siruation.

yeah i know they have me on their list but as u said,....you phisically recognise a person from his avatar firs of all,and actually it happened many times for me that i didn't even know the nickname of a certain person but i knew his avatar..this also happens because some of the users have chosen dificult to remember names...

hmm yes he has but some have hard to remember names so the avatar helps dont u think?

I have changed my avatar since I first posted here and am thinking of changing it again. Luckily my username will help because people will recognise the babblings of a man from the Lunatic Asylum.

I think you are right... I remember my friend with their avatar... some names are hard to remember...
• Denmark

yes,i find them eventually but harder..it also depends on how much we have interracted because there are some that i really got to know very well so i recognise them immediately and others that only answered once or twice to my discussions and those are hard to remember

i know,but some users have names that are hard to remember,not to mention to pronounce so i remember them by the avatar...by the way,why don't you choose one?to be sincere,i rarely am attracted to give attention to those who didn't choose an avatar..it makes me think they don;t wanna get involved so much and that they are too lazy to check out all the options they have to personalise their profile...i am not trying to offend you,but to give you my honest opinion..maybe others think like me too

Hey..ur apprehension is not correct..atleast I dont remember u by the avatar u have got..I think it is quality of ur discussions ..that is really important..rest I think is secondary..let us have more views on this....
• Denmark
15 Nov 06
yes,but it is hard to do that with every single friend from your list and you might lose track of me at some point...i remember more easy my friends by their avatar..

It could actualyl be harder for your friends to find you, the avatur is the first thing I look for when I'm looking for my friends :). They'll find you eventually though I'm sure, best wishes :)
