Mine is one I picked from the gallery of another forum I go to. I've been using it on and off for years.

It's very similar to the one I have at the HH, and I am a lazy cow who can't be bothered to find a different one.

Also, it's pretty. :grin:

That's pretty funny, PH, but if you really don't like your avatar, for goodness sake change it. I'm sure it will be appreciated. :wink:
I can take a hint. :cross:

I swapped old Hamish for Beaker the muppet. I really like the muppets and it was hard deciding which one to go for but in the end I chose Beaker because he had red hair and therefore some continuity with Hamish.

By the way, I remember Jamie and his torch but your av is a wee bit small, CP. I'd make it bigger if I were you.

Beki, I love Calvin and Hobbes. There have been times when we think our son is Calvin. Marvellous really.

It was a hasty decision but I like South Park and this character looks a bit like how I looked when I was wee.

I immediately rushed off to find an avatar of somebody who looked as if they might be wearing a kilt just so I could make a crack about sensing movement under my kilt.

Pathetic, isn't it?

But now I keep getting comments about it so I feel bound to keep it, otherwise their posts won't make sense.

:cross:
It was the same party that my clown avatar scared somebody into hiding under your kilt. Since then, I've been meaning to change it but have only just got round to it.

I picked this one because I find it vaguely amusing.

Ha ha - I toyed with the idea of naming my son Calvin, but I thought that it would just be tempting fate! Named him Cameron instead.

I remember sitting reading the first 'book' of strips in a cafe in the middle of Debenhams in Glasgow. The tears of laughter were absolutely streaming down my face and I had to put it away because I was getting some very strange looks! My son is also a huge fan now.

I'm so glad you plumped for 'Cameron', Beki.

Calvin always makes me think of Calvin Klein underwear.

It's not mine. I found it somewhere on the web.

It is actually impossible to take this shot, as the bore shrinks quite quickly, you can't get your head in like that. OK, I admit trying it.

My avatar was a bit teeny para, so I took your advise and made it a bit bigger. The quality of mine seems a bit rubbish compared to everyone else's though.

Thanks Maria, for uploading mine so quickly.

I couldn't decide which avatar to use so I downloaded 3 different ones and asked a few people who know me well which one I should use. This was the unanimous choice. They said it was just like me - hopefully because I am an optimist and not because they consider me to be round and yellow!

That is really lovely and unusual avatar, Bubbles!

Noggin, you haven't explained yours?

Obviously I picked mine because I like bunnies (to eat that is :twisted: ).
