Triple, even. Just out of curiosity, where did you get your avatars? I have been browsing through discussion and I saw three different people with the same avatars. And its not the first time it happened. Its really kind of confusing. My own avatar came from a anime website, and if ever I find someone who is using it, and if that person has been using it far longer than me, I would change it.

I like yours and I think it is nice. Maybe you should try editinging your name along the bottom of it so they cant steal it directly off you. Probably a hundred people are gonna do it cos you mentioned it. Mine is a picture of me so if other people had it it would be pretty weird. I wonder if it would be copyright or something. I havent seen anyone else with avatars the same. But maybe I just thought they were all the one person. i dont see the p oint in that cos its what you are recognised by. One of my buddies recently changed his avatar and i had to ask him to change it back because i would always miss his discussions and i think he did.

I like your idea about editing it. I think I will try doing it. Yes its definitely going to be weird if your avatar was stolen, lol! I've only just noticed these similar avatars because of the star rating. I was about to comment to a user that his/her star had changed when I realized they weren't the same.lol!

I haven't seen anyone with the same avatar either. My avatar is a crappy picture of me with no makeup I took with my camera phone. If someone stole my picture I would be really creeped out and a little p!ssed. But who would want to anyway? LOL

So far I haven't seen anyone with same avatar as I have, nor yours. But I have seen other people with the same avatars, and you're quite right. Its so confusing.lol! It taught me to actually read the names under the avatars, and not just look at the pictures.

I have learned to do that too, but being the visual person that I am, I still tend to fail to notice that actually they are the same person.

I personally have yet to see more than one person using the same avatar, except for recently when someone 'stole' a friend's avatar and was using it, which didn't make me feel too great. My own avatar is a snowflake design that I personally drew online at http://www.popularfront.com/snowdays - and I would definitely not be happy if someone else took it and used it, since it's actually my own artwork, lol! But I would be flattered if someone liked it that much! ^_^

I haven't seen anyone else with mine. If anyone did show up with it, I'd probably just switch to another shot of the same character, because I almost always use her for avatars. I got mine from an anime website as well.

Yup, that's her. =) I have a bit of an obsession with her. When I first saw here, I thought, that's me as a teenager. I'm a lot different from that now, but I still think of her with much fondness because of that.

*laughs* You're like her as a teenager?! I've always wanted to meet someone like her, too bad we weren't classmates!lol! I've always like her "motherly" figure, the way she cares for Tohru. And also, I like the fact that she's a no-nonsense type of girl but can also be so funny at times. (Well, almost all the time,lol!)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but your avatar is Saki Hanajima right? From the "Fruits Basket"?^-^
