Your Avatar - why?
Every now and then I see an avatar pop up that makes me laugh, or wonder why they think it represents them. Someone has one of two kids I think, and what appears to be a ferocious looking seal behind them that I think is particularly intriguing! (I had a quick look to find out whose it was but didn't come upon it).
Mine is from my wedding in April, it was taken by someone from a distance. I wasn't posing for it but I was looking at the camera. My hair is sticking to my face from the wind, and I'm kinda curling up my lip as I'm talking to someone. I laughed when I saw it, it's the opposite of what wedding photos are supposed to look like. I like it because it's candid, and I really like candid shots. How does your avatar represent you?

I like mine because I really like to take pictures of sunrises and sunsets.

My avatar is a picture of my screenname, Teewinot, a mountain peak in the Grand Teton range.
 I was a park ranger there and fell in love with the place.

Had an animated smiley. Since some weeks i have the XTi as avatar.
For the moment it is my major hobby (photos) and i feel incomplete without my camera. (Thank God for a wife who accepts to share me with our camera.)

I've often wondered what people think of my screen name and if they wonder what it means. I thought I would use a avitar that represents it.
Snowdust is what is flying in the air making it hard to see when are not the lead snowmobile on the trail at 60mph Oops, I just realized I don't have a avitar, It is on flickr Last edited by Snowdust; 09-12-2008 at 02:41 AM.
