    I would like an avatar, I really would. But I just don't have the motivation / energy / choosing capacity / internet searching abilities / anything to get one. For God's sake, look at my subject title! I'm clearly a woman in need of assistance.

    Can somebody choose me an avatar please? Thank you so much.

    Yeah. I don't know what's wrong with me, for for some reason I find it f'ing hilarious. I can has. And it's a cat. With a cheeseburger!!! :D

    There's the thing. Can you add your own avatar? I think you can, but not sure how. I found the list with loads of custom boards.ie avatars. Haven't looked very hard though in fairness.

    It's just that, sometimes people have striking avaters and I always associate them with their posts, as opposed to most posts which I read without checking the author. Maybe it's not a good idea, but I'd like it if I got associated with my posts.

    (Also, I do it to annoy you. But that's just 'cause I think you're cute when your face gets all scrunched up.)

    You have to be a subscriber to have a custom avatar. Otherwise you just have to use the boards ones if you want one.


    Also is it not spelt haz with a zed/zee, for 'i can has'

    I am a subscriber.

    And no. My spelling is fine; it's my grammar that's crap.

    P.P.S. - it's definitely "zed"

    Day = made.

    Nah, I was thinking more of an original Calvin & Hobbs / good Simpsons days / very friendly (but not too friendly) /female, long haired / bit of depth (not emotionally or anything, but just not a flat drawing) absolutely awesome piece of artwork that will represent me and only me and will allow all my Boards buddies to get a true representation of me (without meeting me in person) kind of thing.

    Are you scrunching your face and saying "I has a scrunched face"? 'Cause if so, definitely not.

    Maybe you're trying too hard???

    You have posted 7 times out of 17 posts made & the thread is only on page two....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12 skatehead


    I've tried numerous avatars on yahoo answers and buzz they deffo affect responses. Anything cute like animals is a winner as are pleasant looking faces hinting at sexiness.
    I put up a cartoon red devil once, big mistake....people subconsciously don't like it.

    I really don't know what you're trying to say.

    You're trying too hard to find an avator, relax a bit, let the avator find you.

    Right. Now I feel special. Thank you OutlawPete!

    Can't decide on an avatar still though. Any cool suggestions? (Fortunately, can still dress myself / breathe in and out, etc. Just stuck on this one thing.)

    Ah now, stop trying to be mean.
    Loving the "avator" thing btw! Sounds both modern and prehistoric!!

    What colour is your hair?

    Check out the excellent artwork in this vid, you might see something that can be made into an Avatar.

    It's a bit naughty, so I best not embed it.

    I know its forking sad. Just sounds ghey. Ok a toddler is permitted to talk such nonsense due to an underdeveloped vocabulary but a grown ass adult saying it is....weird.

    Oh & those pictures of cats & dogs with some stupid line like "i has fell" or some sh!t? Jesus get a life.

    But they're really funny. :confused: Something about the human-like expression of an emotion in an animal when the animal in question most likely had something totally different in mind. The cat doesn't really want a cheeseburger. The dog doesn't understand the implications of him falling down and getting his photo taken, to be joined with a caption later. And, best part, nobody gets hurt / embarrassed, etc. Don't get you guys who want to come down so hard on people who get enjoyment out of these kind of pics.
