Avatars and pics in general don't bother me.

Thanks for the compliment (I hope that was a compliment). I've used this avatar on other boards and it freaks out the NTs something fierce.

Johnny Depp makes anything look hot - even death.

I just got finished making this, I think I am going to use it as my new avatar.

Too much trouble to let it go to waste.

I am intimidated more by personalities than by avatars...


I rate yours as one of the best ones.

Does julian from trailer park boys bother anybody.

could you give it a bit more contrast, your other one stood out better. Have it more black and white than grey. Not too much though

The only avatars I dislike are the animated ones. It's extremley distracting when you're trying to concentrate on reading, and the avatar is moving.

I'm not freaked out, by any body's avatar.

I hope that nobody feels intimidated, by mine.

I remember that quite a few people used to be creeped out my Nomaken's avatar. Haven't seen it for a while, mind.
And a fair few people have expressed discomfort when presented with my lipstick-smeared avatars of old.

The "Lilith" at the bottom reminds me of an old Israelite legend, that the first woman made by God was not Eve, but Lilith. When Adam commanded Lilith to "submit" to him, Lilith refused and promptly turned into a demon. The legend could be seen as an early male perspective on woman's lib!

EDIT: I don't mind cockneyrebel's avatar - as long as he keeps his hands of my cheezels!

I guess, if I think about it, mine isn't very friendly looking. I don't know if it would bother anyone. Feel free to comment.

I think that yours does look friendly, and strong. The guy in your avatar appears to be fighting for America's freedom.
