Hawk, Pandora made me special one but I don't know if she's still in the business of doing that. I think your plant is pretty and rare (around here).

My avatar is of a Burpee Seed catalog cover because I enjoy gardening. No, I'm not propped up on a couch with a can of beer, burping at a sports game <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="tongue.gif" />

I just lost 30#s and hubby thinks he's gotten back the girl he married smile Have brown hair, shoulder length, wear glasses and I sometimes babble, so I TRY to be a better listener smile

People pick an avatar that they identify with--though sometimes its what they're like on the inside rather than the outside.

I don't glow, lol but have never outgrown my love of myths and magic, which is how I came to be an adventure gamer.

Well, I had some friends call me their Fairygodmother when I came to their aid in a tight spot, and the nickname stuck, so I took that as my screen name (without the O's), because at the time I could only have 12 letters. I do kinda look like that though. I'm a chubby old lady, with long grey hair that I often do up in a bun or knot.

Err.. well contrary to public opinion, I Don't have an orange and black striped tail...

BUT I was named Tigger at college as I always Bounced around the place, especially in the mornings.. never grew out of this habit and colleagues at work picked the same nickname for me smile

On another board, where most of the contributors know me, I have an avatar the guys picked for me.. Jessica Rabbit smile I Wish I had her legs!!!!!

Are you trying to say LR is well fortified???
You know most castles are.

As to the real question I think most people pick an avatar that they wish they could be.Me I love to look like Moses.(Picture Charlton Heston) Parting the Red sea. Come to think of it I kinda do. Naw Just kiddin.

Hi Fongo...give me a hint--I've been trying to imagine what it is...a tail? Looks like you may have gotten ahold of Tigger's tail. evil

Actually, over the months I've developed an affection for your avatar, but I still find that kid really scary-looking. eek

HIM JIM Jim is after him. wink

I'd say, Fongo, that your avatar means that you are fierce when defending the weak against aggressors. Also, your name obviously is Jim.

Jenny100 -- There's clearly magic inside that mailbox. Is there magic inside of you?

Johnboy -- after giving the matter much thought, I have decided that your avatar shows that you are territorial and have your wits about you in all circumstances. You are the triumphant dragon who has just defended his champagne glass from a threat posed by the recumbent, wounded (drunk?) dragon.

Sorry Jenny100, I was definitely not a psych major..... laugh so what is the mailbox about?--it reminds me of one of the zork games but it's been a long time since I played them.

I am 150 years old and I have a ghostly appearance. I murdered my husband in that maze and now I must roam it for eternity, unless I find a way out.


Last night I dreamt I went to Manderley again.

Hi All,

Well, I am obviously a great big cuddly, rather grey and bad tempered pussycat laugh

I do tend to identify people with their avatars and get a bit confused if they change them.

Emily, I identify you so much with your avatar that I can't play the sim that looks like you in my 'the sims' game because it feels like playing with a real person. Not very nice wink lol

And Rusty, I just don't believe you're not a monkey smile

Rusty,

You have such a playful sense of humour; you can't be an ordinary mortal; so you must be a monkey because you 'monkey' about so much! lol wink
