Bloody cheek @Drago, that's not an avatar. That is my latest bus pass photo

@pawl Avatar always takes my eye, it looks like alittle alien until I looked closer & saw it was a dog

I like the avatar that @Venod has, that rather tall cartoon character that always appears permanently bemused, I always picture him looking exactly like that! And I don't know who the character is.

Mine was chosen just because it was something cycle related, and I liked that this pic of Bibendum had him quaffing a boozy drink and puffing on a cigar.
I'd change it but it confuses people when you change.

Don't give into the social pressure.

If you change your avatar do your previous post still have the original avatar? If you delete your avatar do they all get deleted back to "can't be arsed avatar?
Thank you for your time

What’s confusing is when folks change their usernames.

Its BoBo Bolinski, a Robert Crumb cartoon character, he did some great work, a lot of which aren't suitable for a family forum.

Understatement of the year!
But if you are shy perhaps you could lend some if his other characters to some folk on here.

Ozboz's Stan Laurel avatar always makes me smile when I see it. For years I actually thought it was a picture of @ozboz

Do you find peoples avatars affects your image of them in your minds eye?

Take @Smokin Joe as an example. I've always thought he was an alright bloke, always read his posts with interest, but always though of him as late middle age, quiet, slippers and cardigan kind of guy (nothing wrong with that BTW - I aspire to it!)

Now he's changed his avatar I'm subconsciously thinking of him as a younger chap with a cheeky glint in his eye.

So, is this phenomenon something that afflicts only me?

Well I do remember your one of years gone by of you on the sofa scoffing cake I think. Drag that one out for an airing.

You're alright you are. 🤫

 

[I like Skol]

Used a Skol branded cycling shirt avatar for a long time which people must have instantly recognised and associated only with me but for some reason I felt like changing to Ming maybe a couple of years ago, as in my mind's eye we do look similar and I am equally merciless!
