Your avatar Your avatar does it look like you or not? Have you posted a photo of you? I know some people like not to be known or seen, everyone is different. I myself I’ve up loaded a photo, the same one I use on almost every website I’m on. It was taken a few years ago, only aged a little. Does your avatar look like you?

Yes, my avatar looks exactly like me. My mommy always said I was pretty, little flower. ;) OK, so, it's not really me. I think that's obvious. I've never been one to really take a lot of pictures, and I feel like there's too many people out there that judge based on appearances. That's what I like about the Internet. If you don't like me, it's going to be because of my actions and the things I say, not because of my appearance.

Flattery will get you nowhere. ;) Although, it did you get you a like, so I suppose that's somewhere, right? :P

I have no aversion to displaying my photograph, but I prefer to use an animated avatar on sites that support the feature. My choice of avatar is really seif explanatory

Yes, my avatar looks like me. It is a photo of me. When I first join or re-join a website. I tend to use my real photo. That way friends can find me. However, I tend to use the same username on different sites. Which is unique.

@kevin1877uk I think that is a wise decision. It does help others to find you from different social networks.

True I use the same photo so people know who I am from other websites.

@kevin1877uk It is not how much one has but what one makes of what one has is the route to happiness. I follow that route. And I see I have plenty

I so resemble my avatar. I am such a sweet little angel. (ducks down and waits for the lightning strikes). I am one of those, I don't like using my real photo. If I want to share my real photo, it would be with close friends and done privately, not on a social media site.

I'm told (by my other night-time friends, such as Mole and Bat and Earthworm - though his comment was a little unclear, since he stayed underground) that my avatar is a very good likeness, although I usually wear glasses and don't use a Pear computer. On some other sites I use a couple of human avatars (real photos) which some people recognise more readily as 'me' but they tend to be people with mere human vision!

Thank you, everyone is different in the way they upload their avatar and what they are wanting other people to see.

My avatar is a picture of me and one of my dogs. i have always had a picture posted of me, even before I left. I don't mind posting a picture of me as I am not ashemed ot if, even though I wish I were younger, but hey, at least others know what i look like. By the way, my dog in the picture is a shuhtzu mix, and her name is Sarah.

Before I would use an avatar from the sims 2 game, or random cup about mylot. But this time, I've really posted a video of myself, though not facing the camera. This is me when I went through a zipline in Ilocos Norte Philippines. I almost didn't get a chance but there was no people around. Have a nice day
