Set a Avatar as these are ready to be assigned

 

What's with all the no avatar members, come on people...you don't want @STANDY assigning the above!

 

Ready to set some avatars for the “No Avatar” members out there.

The theme will be watch tattoos




@Trev and @dsio lets have some

 

Few around without a Avatar

 

Bumping this old thread as well. Maybe someone will take a hint.

 

More avatars would be good to see for sure

 

Maybe I should consider a change?

 

Next up

Pretty cool little doods. They even do the Pingu "noot noot's"

 

Ok anyone without a Avatar take your pick of below

 

You do know what happened to the last avatar warden, don't you?

 

Mmmmm....nice cardigan

 

Ahhh the fun of the Squirrel, @Trev and @dsio in the early days of this thread. (worth a laugh for newer members to read the whole thread)

I still think there is a Japanese or German washing detergent getting around

 

What're the thoughts about changing a person's avatar?

Yes, it is allowed but is it frowned upon or discouraged?

Some people previously wrote that they associate a person with their avatar and hence a change disconnects them from their record. Perhaps, but to me if the user name hasn't changed this is not a strong argument against changing avatars. I get that we become accustomed to certain avatars but I can't imagine being flummoxed if someone changes it. It's not like we are dogs that think our owner disappeared when he went into the other room. Chaos if everyone does it? Maybe but hard to see it.

Someone wrote that someone might change an avatar to make it seem like they have a wider presence in order to sell a watch. Maybe, but that seems pretty Inspector Clouseau.

I changed mine a couple of times early on. Hadn't put much thought in it. Now I am bored with it again. When I previously changed it all the previous posts changed too so it didn't seem to impact the history.

I am a fan of decorum and do not wish to ruffle any feathers. Any thoughts one way or the other. As always, no response is considerd "who the F cares, just stop talking "

 

It would be disappointing if if one member assumed a recently discarded avatar from another member.
I find avatar change a little confusing, but most of us change watches ,sunglasses & cars frequently.

 

Just change it, because

lots of people change their avatars. It only gets confusing when you change your name. That’s where it impacts your “history”

 

For example: when I first joined I wanted to make my name Michaelscottpaperco because I love The Office. There is a character limit for the user name, my idea was too long, and looked weird. So a couple days into my membership I changed it to what it is now as a reference to another show I like Parks and Rec.

Before I changed my name, I commented on a photography thread. You can see the post reflects my name change but where it gets weird is, any post that someone quoted me (prior to name change) is not updated.



For your avatar... just change it.

 

I hadn't considered that could occur. Assuming someone else's definitely seems wrong. Cross that bridge when we get it. Sure to raise a well deserved smack down.

Thanks for the feedback.

 

On a change for a bit now

Mostly this


Changed to this for a bit
