Many people prefer to have their avatars appear mysterious just like mine hahaha but some prefer to put their own self portraits in this little piece that is our identification picture to the mylot world. My avatar is my own drawing of a girl with red eyes... it kinda looks freaky so I will change it later to a penguin. Now tell the mylot community why you chose that specific avatar.. is there a cute story behind that? my penguin avatar it means... I do love penguins!:)

and I love monkeys :) I have used mylot without an avatar for a long time really,then I decided to get one. I searched some interesting photos and I was trying to find the one which I would like most. After all, I saw that little monkey looking very amazed at something,and it looks very cute :) I also thought it would be liked by other members in mylot, so I uploaded my avatar. After a few days I got very positive feedbacks from mylot users,and it is really a very nice feeling to see I have done something right when choosing my avatar :) I am never going to change it! I love my monkey :)

yes. the monkey seemed really amazed and if I may relate it to mylot, it is very much applicable. The monkey is so cute, he looks innocent. Good decision on not changing your avatar forever.:)

Hi, For a long time, I have been a great fan of tweety and now my kids too love tweety. Both of them have many items that have tweety in it. So I have my avatar as tweety. Good topic for discussion.

My avatar is a picture of the sunset. My first name means 'twilight' and I thought the sunset would be very apt to go with the meaning of my name. That's why the avatar. I've been meaning to change it for some time now but haven't come up with anything unique or meaningful yet.

This is my third avatar and I think it's going to be the final one. I got it from Yahoo Avatars and it's traditional Filipina Costume. I like it because it portrays a little bit about who I am and I think that the dress looks very pretty.

Oh, YES! and proud to be one. Actually, I wanted to have a dress exactly like that in my avatar but I didn't have enough time in the Philippines to get the right material. I just love Filipiniana. In fact, I even bought my Italian boyfriend a Barong Tagalog. He looks so charming in it.

I love avatars. First i put my own picture then my daughters pic. Since sailormoon is my childhood superhero, i find it really cute and beautiful so i post it beside me. Some may say it's quite nerd or funny but i really love it and even i am a mother now, i still watch it in youtube and want my daughter to watch it too when she know already her interest in cartoon.

My avatar is a cute baby, and many friends think it's my own baby. but it's not the case, and I am not married. . I downloaded it from internet. I can't remember clearly when I found this cute baby. I only remember I decided to download it at once when I found it somewhere online. I do hope I would have a so cute baby in the future. BTW:your drawing is very nice!

My avatar is the still the same, though it changed it's posture. It's still the Tonberry King, a creature from one of my favorites PS1 game. My user name (raijin) is also a character from that game, I guess I am just so into it that's why I got so much attached onto it..

No cute story I'm afraid - just a simple and honest reason. My avatar shows my face, because I think it makes it more personal. When you are reading through someone's discussion, it's nice to be able to put a face to that discussion - it makes it more real - and some real friendships have been formed here because of it. Just my preference.

My avatar is a picture of a baby. I chose that one because it really caught my attention when I searched for baby pictures. It's just so lovely and adorable. I love babies and children that's why.

Well what to say a coincidence or some thing else. The day i signed up for mylot i watched a movie 300. I was very much impressed with it and i felt like watching that for almost 3 r 4 times and came back home late night. As soon as i came back i just noticed that i dont use a avatar on mylot and immediately searched for one from the movie 300 and added it. Since then i dint change the avatar and i think i maynot change it in the near future until some thing catches me more than this.

ah so that movie really striked you.. hehe okay then.. maybe by the time something new strikes you, the cause will be pretty obvious hehe :)

My avatar is of the late Owen Hart from WWF (now WWE)fame. I was and still am a big fan of his and have it as my avatar for most things. I think it is a nice tribute to him and love the picture.

I used to have the little green man and then put a different picture there that was already on my computer files. I just recently found a picture that looks exactly like my dog. I uploaded it here because it reminds me of his so much. They look identical. I have a Pomeranian and that picture looks exactly like he does.

i change my avatar a lot the ony reason why it stays this way (my pic) for so many months is because I haven't been online as much I like uniqueness and change in many things in life, but for some things I do prefer them stay the same not much story in this avatar, its just me although not clearly shown

My avatar was me, taken almost 3 years ago during my debut. I just cropped it. I was actually with my high school friends in this picture. No cute story behind it, I just like the shot. LOL. :)
