Me, well for now it’s a sun because of my user name, Sunshinecup. Sometimes I use abstract doodles I have created using Paint shop pro and other times I use holiday clips.
So why did you pick the picture your using as your avatar or icon?
!!!BTW I read and rate each post but my not be able to respond to all. Also don’t leave a yes or no, I will give a “-“ and report you as I ask all to do so when seeing a post like that. Thanks in advance.!!!!

My avatar is the picture of the French poet Charles Baudelaire, who happens to be my favourite poet. At the same time, his grim and serious face -- as well as his haunted eyes -- reflects the fact that I'm a grumpy git who never misses an opportunity to complain about a thing or another ;)

You know, you do have a point about his haunting eyes. He is almost looks scary. I have never heard of him, but now I have to go read some of his works, are they as dark as he looks?

I picked mine because I thought the picture of myself was incredibly funny and weird looking.

OMG it is funny, but I think it's cute, not weird.
Thanks for sharing that.

I picked mine because i love angels. I probably have about 200 or more angels that I have collected over the years.

I collect angels also. Some how it started with my girls, they just decided one day, Mommy likes angels. Now I have them in all sorts of colors and sizes scattered around the house. I treasure each and every one of them.
Thanks for sharing that.

Well the one I have now...I don't really know why I chose it other than I love John William Waterhouse's work.
I also like the Tristram & Isolde stories too. That's what that particular painting is called :)

Because it is a picture of my number one chihuahua opening her mouth perhaps in response or discussing on myLot.

This is one of the few pictures of me that I like. It's my first tattoo and it has a kind of special meaning to me.
