I was just now changing my avatar for the MILLIONth time, and I was curious as to how often we all tend to change our own avys.
And why you do? Or, for some, why you don't?

Are there some people here who are conscious of the POWER OF BRANDING and therefore keep the same sad over-worked pathetic image of a rotting fungus around for years at a time?

Are there those of us who, being somewhat A.D.D., change it every few hours or so?

Is it the SOCK influence? The SIMPSONS influence? Are we SO EASILY SWAYED by the Avatar Fashionistas?

Perhaps, at least for ONE of us, it is an over-abuse of hot caffinated beverage?

Anyway... just wondering.

Please, go ahead and talk amoungst yourselves! (Let's start with someone FRENCH, shall we? )Very Happy

I change mine whenever I get sick of the current one. Or when I feel re-energized and start chopping again.

With all the similar avies I've made it a quest to keep mine different from everyone else's. This helps avoid confusion when you've gotten used to associating a pic with a person. Laughing

I don't change my avatar... it changes itself... like a living organism... if you know what I mean... almost symbiotic...

now and then, switching between old and new ones...

sometimes with the 'hot' stuff (simpsons, cockle, soutpark, socks)
But usually something to do with my favorite (favourite) animal (and I'm not talking about Dot)

Reminds me, shall we do a talk-like-a-pirate-ava contest again? I'm pretty good at it
