I design my own avatar -
I'll start you off. My profile pic was taken whilst I was on a kiddies rollercoaster with my children and my partners two youngest children at the American Adventure theme park in Derbyshire.
Hence the gritted teeth and windswept look - I don't normally look as appealing girls!-
You look happy.

Blimey that was quick - no sooner than you can say posted and a post arrives - its a record for one of my duscussions - a record to get a reply full stop - Thanks.
-
very funny the story of your picture
-
the avatar should tell exactly what your blog is about.
dont forget to vote for me at technorati.com/wtf/danimarca/-
So how do I put history and computing and a bunch of other mishmash into an avatar? -
Avatars are more associated with US than with our blogs; we have thumbnails and descriptions for our blogs. I think an avatar should be reprentative of the blogger, not necessarily the blog (though there might be a significant point of intersection) -
MadameX - following your comment -
I appreciate your discussion of avatars/user pics. Happily, the avatar I designed for another forum was intended to be more representative of me than of the blog contents.
It's good to get a 'look' at the cultures involved here.

I took my own picture in front of my dining room door. :-)-
tried that but it was a bit like the well known cigar advert with Gregor Fisher trying to get a pic in a photo booth (or Mr Bean).
-

ah yes well i thought about that but I come from a marketing background and i just can't get over the fact that people buy people - show a table or show a picture of people sitting at a table etc - what's the most likely to get a responce?
Hence I use a true likeness for my own.
Hey, never thought.... I could be putting people off with my 'mug'???? (lol)
P.s. avatar pics too small to show any detail of a screen shot - luckily it disguises my face as well pretty good.-
No, but I did wonder about the camera angle.

At a cookout at my house a couple of summers ago.

At home, was hard to squeeze his big head in though-
lol
-
-
I took the picture myself sat on the sofa.
I used to have a picture of me with Alistair Griffin but that was taken 4 years ago and I decided it was due for a change. -
Mine was done during a secret interview... can you tell?
Hey BlogCatalog, I need my avatar updated PLEASE.... I updated it several days ago. -
My photo was taken at Watkins business conference when I earned an award last year.-
Congratulations.

My avatar ... isn't me. Hmm, maybe I'll see who can figure it out. -
Either James Bond (looks like your holding a martini) or Mr Smith from Matrix - he apparently likes helping his elderly neighbout put her garbage out!
Thanks for stopping by.

Oh, in about 1910-- (ha-ha). Look decent for my age, though. :-) -
Photobooth. -
I was at a fair, having a good time. Ice cream looked tasty, so thought I would give it a try. After this shot was taken, I realized that my arms are too short, and made a big mess all over my face. We laughed and laughed!-
Looks like you were having a monster time anyway!

My profile pic was taken near my driveway. I've used it in all blogs but one, since it is appropriate to the 'personal viewpoint' aspect of them.
Thanks for a good discussion topic: most people here have a personal involvement!-
Thanks for stopping by - I've been amazed by the response.
-
I always feel like you are watching us with that eye. lol
-

mine's a self-portrait that I snapped in the hallway. one of those lucky shots that actually included my whole head. -
It looks professional.
-
-
Mine, before it was cropped, was a picture of me with my youngest sitting on my lap. -
It's a Mr Picasso head.-
Soz - looks more like Mrs Potato Head on my fuzzy screen!
-
-
Mine's actually two pictures in one. Both were taken at an INXS concert.
Blog on! -
The picture that I had up before this one was taken by a photographer in a hair studio. It was a "Mary Kay Cosmetics" make over photo.
This one before I cropped it was a photo of my son sitting on my lap when he was younger. -
It's just two of my horses in our backyard after a good snow.

My bday celebration at a nightclub @ the HardRock where they play house music. -

Next to an older telescope on my deck, if you look closley you see the moon in a clould opening left of center just down from the top-
Nice photo Bob.

Thanks PrettyLady, I call it "Boba beside a telescope with the moon and clouds in the sky"

HI - The only black hole i've been able to see with the naked eye is my bank account! Thanks for joining the fun on this discussion.

My picture is of my wife and I cut and pasted together from before we got married.-
You make a lovely couple.
-
-
In my office for the company newsletter. Wish I had a decent one.-
Funny, I thought that was decent.
-
I think in-decent photo's are banned?? Therefore your pic is ideal.
-

Liberty Island NY.
A pic of me taking a pic.
Very er...erm...symbolic...sort of-
Interesting crop - I've heard its very difficult to get a decent picture there as a bloomin great stone statue keeps blocking the view!
-

Mine was taken in Wonderland with Alice-
Hi helloitsme
That's a cheesy grin!
-
-
My avatar is my business logo and the picture on my blog is the beautiful San Mateo Coast in Ca. ( I like to go birding!) -
I drew mine! It was the avatar I was using in a forum when I was playing Star War Galaxies, but my hair look quite the same.^^
I'm working on a much "witchier" illustration to use as a header for my blog though. If only I had some more spare time!-
You are very talented.

Mine was taken by my wife a couple of months ago at the Fredericksburg Arthritis Walk fundraising event.-
Well done - a very noble cause.
-

Found with google image search, I was looking for something very NERD...-
Hi - Looks like you may have found it - better than a blank outline! (although that bloke that jumped through windows just to deliver a box of chocolates seemed to do alright by it!) (cadburys milk chocolate tv adverts)
-
-
photoshop hehe! and spells out my blog name.
I used it as a watermark, more like a stamp for my pictures. -
My photo is taken at Lake Tahoe.-
wow - just typed in lake tahoe in google - everything from native indians to winter skiing! what a lot to pack into one image! Well done.
-
-
Hey Guys - Well done!
I just noticed we'd made top discussion on home page. -
Mine was shot in my living room as I was playing the guitar... I cropped it, and then added a little solarization.-
Not woeful at all - thought I detected a bit of glowing edges there too. NIce job though and how's the guitar playing?
-
-
hmmm. Well, mine is just a picture of one of the pieces of chain maille I've made.-
Wow!
-
-
Mine was taken when we stopped to watch paragliders flying over a crater lake near Nemi, Italy.
Here is the post with more pics:
