Why doesn't everybody have an avatar

MooseJam

There's loads of you that don't have an avatar, there's no excuse for this other than laziness , it's a very handy thing and can make identifying posters very simple so any of you that don't have one this is your chance to rectify the situation !

ironictoaster

I do have one, It never loads for some reason.

Owen

Just couldn't be arsed really.

Who cares, its not important.

Until there are two or three or ten people with the same one.

It's a genetic condition I have. You wouldn't understand.

Tigrrrr

where are the avatars?

I have a special one that nobody else has.

Steoob

me too

Unless you import a unique one, many of the existing choices are blah. There are also duplications by members of those available, so the uniqueness is lost. A close friend on boards did my sig pic (after being resurrected from a site ban), I thought it fun, so I adopted it. Perhaps if the importation process for avatars was made easier, more members would use them?

Custom for the win.

I identify a lot of posters by their avatar, i also like to believe that some people look like their avatars.

Avatars are great for arbitrarily deciding the gender of any given poster

I used to have the small sonic one when I first joined and noticed one other user with it so when I subscribed, I got a larger sonic one and a few months ago changed over to Miles.

I merely sound like my avatar

Piste

I've grown pretty attatched to my avatar, couldn't imagine any other! Apprently I look like it too. I wonder if it's the online equivalent of owners looking like their pets?

I do indeed look like a mushroom dreaming of becoming another mushroom.

I didn't want to step on anyone's toes when signing up by having the same avatar. I don't think I've visited the avatar page since.

eirebhoy

I got mine in a lucky dip.
