Vallerina 2 #1 April 26, 2004 I like avatars since if I go somewhere, people can recognize me, come up to me and say, "Wow! So you're that wench who posted that (insert something controversial here.)" I was informed over pm that my avatar doesn't look like me. I'm surprised, since I thought it was one of the more "normal" pictures I have (ie, my eyes aren't closed, I don't look scared, etc.) I was also informed that my pic on MSN looks like I've been hit with a frying pan. So, for people that have met me, does my avatar look like me? I apparently have no clue as to what I look like. Does anybody have any pictures that look like me???? It's funny how you can see yourself everyday in a mirror while brushing your teeth or whatever, you think you know what you look like, and then someone comes along and tell you otherwise. I thought I knew myself better!There's a thin line between Saturday night and Sunday morning Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vallerina 2 #5 April 26, 2004 QuoteDefinitely looks like you. Yours, too! QuoteYou are just jealous of my attention span. No, I'm happy with the lack of mine! QuoteHaven't met Val, but that's a nice picture. Thanks! I just have avatar issues. I had one up a few years ago, and Skymedic commented on how I looked much better in person....nothing like my avatar!

bbarnhouse 0 #6 April 26, 2004 I don't think that picture does you justice. It doesnt show off the fabulous smile that we all associate with "Val". Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
craichead 0 #7 April 26, 2004 I dunno Val...I did a double-take when I saw your avatar! It kinda looks like you, but there's no colour in the photo. It makes you look almost gaunt...Andy said you looked like a mime. And I'm not used to seeing you with that hairstyle... Now THIS is the Val I recognise. _Pm Edited to add: Who's the stud on the right? ::snicker::__ "Scared of love, love and aeroplanes...falling out, I said takes no brains." -- Andy Partridge (XTC) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vallerina 2 #13 April 26, 2004 Quote. It makes you look almost gaunt...Andy said you looked like a mime. So, I'm a BIT pale! I haven't been outdoors much since I went to Spain! Bright white is just my natural color! (Like Robyn said, I'm sure the flash probably made me look more pale.) Thanks for all the compliments! I just wanted to know if I looked like "myself." Whenever I try to size down a picture that I think looks like me, they start getting blurry and stuff. So, if I don't know you, and you see someone who may or may not look like that picture, say, "HI!" And, Robyn....there will be MANY days where I'll be out there during normal business hours!

Shotgun 1 #18 April 28, 2004 Well, I was just looking at this thread and couldn't resist making an avatar for you from the posted picture (yes, I am a geek and just enjoy doing that kind of stuff)... So here it is: [inline val.jpg] I don't even know you, but I thought this picture looked a lot more fun than the current one, so use it if you want to... (if not, I apologize for butting in!)

boxingrrl 0 #19 April 28, 2004 I think you should use the new one, Val. You look beautiful in your current avatar, but oh, so serious. The new one is definitely the Val someone would recognize at the DZ. edited cuz I forget words n' stuff Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Samurai136 0 #21 April 28, 2004 Your current avatar looks good but you sort of have this 'voodoo' beady brown eyes look.
