Do you judge people by their avatars? Do you get an opinion about them right off the bat because of the avatar they choose? Be honest! :)

deleted_user 02/05/2008

yes I do . But that could be just because I chose one that express me in one way or the other. I look just like pinkie the cat every morning...

don't ya just hate static?

pink

no i dont think i do.. i judge people on who they are or seem to be to me.. .. i just think the avatars are a cute way to express and share.. i dont like the flashing ones though they make me sick to my stomache..**hugs**

deleted_user 02/05/2008

No I don't judge people by their avatars. I just them by their actions toward me and others. But I don't care for the flashy ones either. They're too distracting to me.

Dixe4me 02/05/2008

So do you think that the avatar expresses something about the persons character?

deleted_user 02/05/2008

Sometimes it might but not always. Sometimes it can be just something that you like or a favorite character. Most of us change and decorate because it's a woman thing.I think we do that with our avatars sometimes too.

So ok, you've got two friend requests and one is of a skeleton and one is of a cute little puppy and you could only choose one,and that's all the info you had about that person. which would you choose?

deleted_user 02/05/2008

i would choose the skeleton ... only reason i have is because ..who puts a skeleton as an avatar anway..lol

Dixe4me 02/05/2008

LOL, you would not sandy!!:)

deleted_user 02/05/2008

*shakes my avatar all over the place!

You can judge my avatar as HOT! LOL!

But seriously, no. The exception to that may be if they have their own pic because then I can see what they look like, but I would still get to know them first before I come to any conclusion.

deleted_user 02/05/2008

is it a cute skeleton and a scarey dog? LOL

the moving ones make me sick also...but I do have a few of my own that move.

Dixe4me 02/05/2008

But, do you think the avatar gives us a clue about the person?

deleted_user 02/05/2008

I'd have to say yes on that. Your avatar tells me that you like cats. :}

Dixe4me 02/05/2008

HA! I like dogs better. I like cats too. I just found this avatar when I first came here and it just kinda stuck as me. It reminded me of the cat I got for my dad just before he died. Her name is BRAT :)

Dixe4me 02/05/2008

My dogs name is Dixie

deleted_user 02/05/2008

But see, I was right! You do like cats! Lol! :}
