Ive just realised that im one of the very few that uses a picture of myself as an avatar

[RATTER15]

Do people think it unwise or foolish to use a real pic?
Do people just like to keep others guessing?
maybe people see themselves in such a bad way they wouldnt like to bee seen.
Maybe they just like to be totally anonymous.
Maybe they just like to mysterious.
Maybe they like to create a totally different image than that of whom they really are.

Am I really a 36 stone black mama from llandudno otherwise known as Madam Whiplash?

[bibblebub]

which one is you?

[mrs_overall]

I can't use a pic of me cos in real life I am a supermodel and all the girls would be jealous

[anneasquith]

who is the person on the right of you avatar rat ? :)

[EvianBaby]

I had one of myself on my old name but stopped using it as someone I know uses this site too and I didn't want to make it so obvious I was me.

Saying that, if she has seen any of my posts in this name she'd have to be pretty dumb to not realise it was me.

I have an avatar of my bestest friend - well he is just now, but we are off to the vet in ten minutes. ;-)

[weecalf]

I look like the one in front

[Frank97]

I thought about it, but as no one else seemed to I thought it was maybe not a good idea.

[RATTER15]

Im the stunning blonde on the left, not the baldy git!!!

[rowanwitch]

tell me about it!!!

[whiskeryron]

I use a false Avatar because if I use a pic of myself & I say something stupid I should feel a right Wally if anyone recognises me.

[Smowball]

Hell no i would never use my own pic!

[ChuckFickens]

I have used my own pic in the past a few times but I stopped in case I scared anyone.

[ummmm]

I thought you looked pretty sexy in your mankini, Chuck :-)

How do we know that's really your picture?
If it is your picture you risked being stalked by a maniac, that is why I prefer
to remain anonymous, it gives me an air of mystery!

[RATTER15]

Cupid, read the bottom line in the question. :))

[cupid04]

You will have a lot of politicians ringing you up. I hear that thy are into that
kind of thing!

[grasscarp]

The good thing about answerbank is that you can give away to others as much or as little information about yourself as you want to. I would not come on here at all if it involved giving real name or photo.

You've lost weight since I last worked for you then...
