people need to stop changing there avatars

Post Reply New Topic

It's a great plot point.

Basically these hyper-intelligent pan-dimension beings build a supercomputer to calculate The Answer, to Life, The Universe, and Everything. After two and a half million years, it finishes it's calculations, which winds up being...

42

Outraged, the beings ask why it's so ridiculous, and the computer responds (in the movie), "You can't know the answer if you don't know what the question means." A later book has the Ultimate Answer as being "What is Six times Seven?". Funny how life works!

Anyways, yeah, 42.

ah, OK. Never got to watch that movie.

I hope my new avatar's a bit better now for the guys here.

It's how my previous avatars looked like

I decided that time needed for writing 100 posts would be time when I'd have only one avatar. Every time I have the next 100 new posts written I change an avatar looking for something interesting.

I only update mine to put a newer pic of me on it.

ive kept my original and have always on other websites, (tho i only belong to 2 text boards), wrong planet and an autism site for parents of Dx'ed children, as i try to give help and advice.

Yes, i pay more attention and remember who ppl r better with a pic then their actual name. Kinda weird cause in real life Im better with names then faces.

heh

The avatar I use is the same one I use on two out of three other forums that I am a member of.
The third forum allows image signatures.
What I might do is keep my avatar constant but devise a collage signature that evolves as my interests evolve.
The actual collage will be kept at an image site but the only thing that appears in the signature space is the link.
The "pseudo-signature" below is an example:

collage

people changing there avatars fine, but one thing i cant stand is pictures in signatures. no way homeslice, oh no. aww hell no!!

sorry i couldnt resist

wow i see alot angry people in this topic i just was responding to the fact that when a person changes and avatar it changes a littel of how i identfy them

espcialy Graelwyn i miss ur dolphins

But Time, you don't even have an avatar. I don't get it. Am I missing something?

Anyway, perhaps you can use avatar-changing as some sort of diagnostic criteria. A person who keeps the same avatar forever is the kind of person you like - they're stable, etc. Whereas those of us who change em up are not on your list of best friends -we're too messy or something.

I can barely keep my personality in check from hour to hour, let alone hang on to one picture for more than a week (off I go to sort through the pix on my computer...)
