Carbon Monoxide Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 I should think not. The avatar is a picture of carbon monoxide. Link to post Share on other sites
~ LJ Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 I'd love to be my avatar. Blue Eyes Toon Dragon 4evah. that, and I'm too lazy to change it to my face. Link to post Share on other sites

Mycroft is Yourcroft Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 No, because I've shared stories and experiences here that refer to my horrible ex-boyfriend, who knows about the site (I showed him when I realised I was asexual). I did put a photo of myself briefly when I first signed up, but when I started sharing the deep stuff I removed it :) Link to post Share on other sites
AprilStorms Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 Nope! I don't like to put my own face in avatars like this. My current AVEN avatar is Lust from Fullmetal Alchemist, just for giggles. Link to post Share on other sites
ficgal Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I don't like getting my picture taken. I always end up looking like a stoned serial killer. My Facebook profile picture is a cartoony version of me. Link to post Share on other sites
littlepersonparadox Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 Mines this weird merge. It's a little miss version of myself. The hair is exactly like my haircut and I do have glasses and a small nose. I custom made it to look like me-ish. As for serial killer I do look like ine in photos if I'm forced to take my glasses off. Link to post Share on other sites
AWF Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 I don't usually represent myself with my picture because the camera hates me (which is weird, because I'm toatz super cute)! I've loved Absol ever since my first wild one appeared(!), and so I pasted a fedora and drew a goatee on it, which have become symbols of my individuality. I have a twin brother, so identity was a seriuos issue for me growing-up. Suffice to say, my avatar is very personal, although not me exactly. I don't really hide behind my avatar, though. It's not like I make myself at all difficult to find, between using the same identities among networks and leaving my info public. I just don't think myself interesting enough to be worth hiding, either because I'm very open or very naive, I guess. But do not be confused: my spirit animal is Mega Absol.

Frigid Pink Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 I wouldn't use a photo of me as my avatar for the sake of some anonymity on this site. I don't even have a facebook account for anonymity reasons. I've had the same avatar for almost forever. I only changed it once (after I changed my username) within the first year I was on AVEN. I love horror movies and the color pink, so, my avatar is Pinhead from "Hellraiser" and I made him pink, although he's not actually pink in the movie. I have a photo of me on Acebook, and have changed it several times, however, I'm always in costume (I like costumes!) and am not easily recognizable. Link to post Share on other sites
bonny Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 My avatar obviously isn't a picture of me, but it is a picture that I drew myself. :) Link to post Share on other sites

FireBendingAce Posted June 7, 2014 Share Posted June 7, 2014 I actually am in my avatar picture, you just can't see me very well! I'm on top of a mountain in Colorado. I like to use this one for icons on websites because it technically is me, but also looks kind of artsy or something.. (If you look closely, you can see a mountain goat standing next to me too :p) Link to post Share on other sites
Kiwi_Kitty Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 My avatar, unfortunately, is not me. I've always been a bit dodgy about putting personal information online, having grown up in the age when the Internet was just becoming popular and everyone was hyped up about security. What can I say, I was young and impressionable. So my online persona is pretty much impossible to trace to my irl-persona. Anonymity makes me more comfortable when it comes to self-expression, I guess. Because all of my scrennames involve cats in some way, that's my trademark. So my avatar will probably always be a cat because that's how I roll. 8) Link to post Share on other sites
Soiled Melody Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 At one point I used a picture of myself, but I got tired of that. So I put it on my profile instead. I know use a picture of Allen Walker, Exorcist from D. Gray Man. Link to post Share on other sites
the_teal_noodle Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 There is someone who I know IRL who is on this site, and I wouldn't want them to discover me. Link to post Share on other sites
JaySexual Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Obviously not me, but it was made by me. Using this one for June...plan to go back to something more ace-ish later...probably the one I had before Link to post Share on other sites

Komorebi Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Yes, it's me, in front of the little Godzilla statue in Hibiya. Because, well, I'm fond of big chubby monsters. Link to post Share on other sites
Too Old for this Site Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 It's a drawing of me drawn by a professional illustrator...so, yes. Link to post Share on other sites
anann Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 My avitar is cropped from an old photo I found at an antique store. The kid has a cat (and I LOVE kitties) and isn't obviously a boy or a girl which I like as an agender person. Plus I really like old stuff in general... It is how I see myself.

AdiaAir Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 well, sort of... it's a 3D version of me, made to match my facial features and body measurements. made her in Daz Studio (a 3d software program) to learn how the genesis2 base character works. Link to post Share on other sites
angrybird Posted July 8, 2014 Share Posted July 8, 2014 My avie is a picture of a card a saw in Hallmark when I was looking for a birthday card. It's just too funny. Also people seem to think it's a joke when I'm angry (grrrr) so it fits. Link to post Share on other sites
LaMaestra Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Not even if my avatar man himself asked me to (or even ordered me to) would I post a picture of myself! Link to post Share on other sites
verily-forsooth-egads Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 I thought I'd keep the default for a while, but I'm wishing for something more gender-neutral. Not in a million years would I make it my face. I believe in keeping it simple, letting my words stand alone. Link to post Share on other sites
kelico Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Nope. I change it here and there, but so far I've only used ones of Hatsune Miku, hehe. : ) I have posted pics of me in the AVENite photo thread, however....but I don't feel like always seeing/showing a pic of me when I post haha.

Blacky Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 I always use one of my characters. This guy's nickname actually is 'Blacky' haha, but that isn't my real name obviously. (Also, he's not a wolf or a dog or a canine.) Link to post Share on other sites
