I just want to inform all my MyLot friends that I have just changed my Avatar today. Usually I do not like changing Avatar as some others may not be able to remember or link to who I was before the change of Avatar. But, this round, it's the first time ever i am changing my avatar in MyLot and I do hope that those friends in MyLot can still know who i am. Basically after watchiing the movie "avatar", I kind of like the show and thought I change my avatar here to the one that is in the movie. So, do you all change your avatar often in the online world?

Hi rtslvtwy, I changed it a couple of times in the beginning until I found one to stick with but what a terrible bother it all was as I'm a complete techinphobe and it took lots of people talking me through it every time. I won't change it again now as one of my friends here calls me after me sometimes. However there's another friend here who constantly changes his avatar and is now on his third Goran for me, just so I have something to swoon over whilst I type.

I think it's okay to change once in a while but just not too often.

I have never changed my avi on mylots, actually never really thought about it. Maybe that would be something cool to do for the new year, like change it every year on New Years.Not so sure what i will change it to. Maybe i will design my own. Good luck with everyone knowing who you are. Im sure no worries i dont know that people pay that much attention to the actually picture of the avi

Actually I relate avatar to the person. I look at the avatar more that to the person's user id or nick. But, I guess both are just as important.

I tend not to change my avatar. Not because I think people won't recognize me, but just because of lazyness. I admit that I don't change tastes easily, so when I choose an avatar it's rare that I will stop liking it.

That's what I thought so too. But what if there is someone else who have the same avatar as you do? or what is someone else stole your avatar? I guess having a unique avatar and an easy to remember nickname would be best.

anyway, you have yet to put an avatar on your MyLot profile yet. And on the other hand, you must watch the movie AVATAR. It's a very good movie.

i dont change mine often for the same reason as you stated.. i do change it if i get a newer pic of myself since i dont have pics of me often so maybe a few times a year but ive had this one here since oct and before that i dont know how long lol.. i do try to keep it as me so at least they would recognize me if they remembered what i looked like

Now that's neat to change your Avatar after seeing the movie. I actually need to change my avatars. I got so many saved on my computer in a folder that I don't know which I want to change to yet. I haven't changed my avatar since I signed up on here so I will probably go with a funny one.

I haven't changed my avatar since I started. I might one of thse days, but I like my avatar, as it goes with my username, and that is why I have it. I thought of putting a picture of myself as my avatar, but not sure it is a good idea. Besides a picture of myself, I really can't think of anything else to make it unless I put a nature picture as my avatar. I have a really pretty lake and mountain on my computer, so it might be good to have that, but I think for now, I will keep my avatar, and amybe change it one of these days. Good luck, happy myltting, and Happy New Year.

You changed your avatar to the theme of "Avatar," very nice indeed As for me, I don't really change my avatar that much because a) I'm usually satisfied with my avatar b) I cannot be bothered to change it and c) I usually find that other users recognize me by my avatar, so I don't wish to confuse them

Hi rtslvtwy. I love to change my avatar and since I am here I have change it four times. People recognized me by the nickname and not by the avatar. That is why better to have nickname which is easy to commit to memory - I think other my lot-ters will recognized me no matter how times I will change my avatar.

That's a good idea to have nickname that is easy to be remembered. Because I thought that usually people associate better with pictures and photos.

avatar - The avatar in myLot are pictures taken by me.
I simply love to change my avatar. I enjoy taking pictures with my digital camera and most of the images I upload are my efforts and the subjects are the birds, trees and flowers in my garden.

Since I have been here on mylot, I haven't changed my avatar; however, on some websites, I think that I do change my avatar around once a month or so to keep things fresh. Get tired of looking at the same thing day in and day out for a while.

I rarely change my avatar. Mostly due to the fact that I rarely see a reason to do so. And I like to keep with the same avatar. Maybe one a year, at most, depending on my mood. Twice on a rare occasion. Its really not something that I do all that often regardless.
