Maine farmer Posted February 20, 2017 Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 I see a lot of different avatars, and sometimes wonder why people choose the image that they do. Mine is a photo I call "Deere in the headlights" , which I believe emphasizes my agricultural background and my sense of humor. What does your avatar have to say?

sanctus Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 In the good old days I had long hair :-) And was studying. Also, since not much thought went into my forum-name (name of a song playing in background when signing up) and then there were a lot of discussions about religion on the forum, I thought to make my avatar + forum name neutral by adding some photoshop, following the +1 + (-1)=0 logic :-).

CraigD Posted February 23, 2017 Report Share Posted February 23, 2017 My avatar is something I made to match the the frame that went around a post, back when Hypography was using different forum software. It looked as if I had no avatar image at all. I did it as a joke, so that people who pay attention to such things would be puzzled at how I’d managed not to have an avatar image, and as a vague statement that it was more important to focus on my text than my decoration. When we changed forum software some years ago, to something that didn’t display your avatar over the post frame, I didn’t bother changing avatars, so now it’s a nostalgic reminder of bygone days, and a testament to my fundamental laziness. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAHD Posted February 27, 2017 Report Share Posted February 27, 2017 Pulled a Sampson, Cut my long hair off. Put short-haired-me up to reflect my IRL face.Prior to this was one with me as a long hair, leaning back on my couch, and "holding" a lensflare in my hand. That one had a bunch of symbolism.

Yeah but who gave you the two black eyes? :vava: Me, I am a sailor in real life, marine engineer on a large research vessel; not a scientist myself but I get to baby-sit work with a lot of them. And I lost an eye some time ago in a boating accident.I am what I am and that’s all what I am . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . sanctus and GAHD 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAHD Posted March 2, 2017 Report Share Posted March 2, 2017 Yeah but who gave you the two black eyes? :vava:LOL, That's a good question. It might have been boxing, it might have been sleep deprivation, it might have been a combination of the two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
