Okay, I thought TG''s avatar was a cartoon cat. Don''t ask me how I got that, I just did.

I make no sense. I often get FG and Sk8r''s avatars confused because they look alike now, and there was someone else with a pear-shaped halo on a purple flower... Dani, don''t feel bad about those ''Magic Eye'' things, I STILL can''t do it- anyone ever see Mallrats? A guy is attempting to ''see'' it thw whole movie, and people keep coming up and going, ''Ooh! A dolphin!''

YEP, Amber, I am SO that guy!!!!!!!! LOL!!!!

LOL TG and Dani, i see while i was posting you said the same thing i thought of as the eye...lol!

TG I can''t wait to see what you come up with next!!! will it have a beret on?

or perhaps a crocheted pot warmer? i hear they double as hats.

Hm...I am thinking a post-it with a scary looking eye drawn on it, wearing a beret, eating lemon pie to fatten up those skinny legs which are being kept warm by pot warmers.

"Ooooh, it's a schooner!"
"You dumb b____d. It's not a schooner, it's a sailboat."
"A schooner IS a sailboat, stupidhead!"

Hehe... funny movie.

 

[AmberWaves]

Ephem, EXACTLY.

 

[flopkins]

haha... TG I totally thought the same thing as Starset at first, I thought it was a hunched over girl w/a huge backpack... then later I saw it was just the backpack...

anyhoo, yes, I totally agree that it is weird meeting ppl after you associate them w/their avatar and screename for so long.... I still think of them by their PS name, not their real names!!!

I get FH and Sk8Jen''s icons mixed up too! Very similar.

What does my icon say?

For some reason, I want to go eat ice cream when I see yours EBree...maybe it''s that happy doggie tongue!

 

[Miranda]

TG, I thought yours was a fish!!! Don''t ask me why, but, I saw a big silvery fish when I looked at yours.

That''s so true that you do see people as their avatar. Kaleigh''s was one of the first I noticed when I started lurking. It was almost as if that close up of her ering and eternity band could speak!

Sorry...could change mine, but I love it! Darn that sk8r for getting a similar ring!

Your avatar makes me S L E E P Y........looks like pup's yawning. Makes me want to curl up in bed and take a lil nap.

ETA: I always thought TG's was a very skinny legged hunched over girl on a chair.

Mara, Alj is STILL velma to me. Haven''t been able to shake that one at all.

DAMMIT - and I''ve worked SO HARD to become one with the chainsaw! LOL

Actually, when Mara was first here, she had this cute cartoon flower girl thing, and that''s how I thought of her for the longest time.

Oh, and I think it''s HYSTERICAL that no one knew that was a backpack. I saw backpack right away! LOL

I have to admit, I NEVER knew what I was looking at when it came to your avatar, TG.. I don''t see a girl and I don''t see a backpack either! I see some kind of monster with one eye looking towards the left side....I know, I am a weirdo!!

I must be too, because I never paid that much attention but it always looked like some kind of bug or something. Like a giant roach from a cheap science fiction movie from the 1950''s?

 

[lizz]

TG, I always thought yours was a girl sitting backward in a chair too with long hair.

I got confused too with FG's and Mara's avatars. I thought it was the same person until I started looking harder.

Okay I am piggy-backing on old-fashioned girl''s thoughts about TG''s avatar! I don''t feel so embarassed now.

For the longest time I was like what is THAT?? And then I was like, "is that a ROACH??" And then i thought "she''s a stranged one that girl!" Looking at it now, after reading this thread, I FINALLY see it is a backpack. Cute!

 

[jcrow]

for the longest time i thought mara had an asscher... sneaky sneaky. i was new, what can i say?

 

[TravelingGal]

A ROACH?!??! That''s it...bye bye buggy, hunchback, skinny legged thing..........

 

[Kaleigh]

Anybody remember Reena''s avatar?? I can still picture it, she cracked me up. Still don''t have any idea if it was a dogs head or a fox head on top of that suit?? So count me as one that had no clue what was in TG''s avatar. Of course now I can see it. Like duh... Glad to know I''m not the only one.

[onedrop]

Awww.....TG I didn''t mean to chase the backpack away!!! LOL!

Love the new avatar though!

 

[Dee*Jay]

TG - post a pick of your old avatar since it's gone now so I can see the backpack on a chair that everyone else is seeing. (I won't even tell you want the hell I thought it was... )

HI:

Funny thread. I''m with AL, always was a backpack. A roach?????--whatttttt........just for those smokin......

Love the new avatar, btw

cheers--Sharon

 

[TravelingGal]

Hmph...

The backpack:

 

[decodelighted]

Ha! I always thought it was a tall waify girl wearing a shiny blue dress & black tights kinda draped/slumped over a chair.

*bzzzzz*

wrong answer.

 

[hlmr]

I knew there was a backpack there but I always thought there was a skinny gal underneath it!! lol

(and the only reason I figured out it was a backpack was because it was traveling gal's avatar!

)

 

[aussiegirl23]

this thread makes me giggle...

TravelinGal... I always saw a girl with her back to us stradling a chair -- see what minituraizing a picture into an avatar can do? or how silly my brain can be?? I like your temporary one though : ) can''t wait to see what you come up with next!

I too have a strange desire to see people''s pictures from here - it always surprises me, no matter whose pictures I find... in wedding gowns, with the kids, or whatever... Isn''t it strange that even on the net, I want to visualize who is speaking? It''s fun though realizing that people can turn out to be completely different from your 1st impressions or assumptions...

I think one that REALLY got me was realizing (and am I wrong here???) that Lorelei is 18?? I think I remember that from one of the weekly workout threads... WOW -- she sounds a heck of a lot more mature than that : ) Or am I mis-remembering it totally?

And yes... when people have their pets as avatars... I hear them talking to me - which made DeeJay''s story about Demon Dog jumping into the river SO much funnier to me... since Demon Dog was doing all the talking : )

[whatmeworry]

That''s funny, I too thought it was a girl with a huge backpack on, with her back turned towards the camera.

I remember kaleigh!! It was too funny! Yanno, I can''t remember exactly what type of head was on that suit either, but it always made me smile!

I saw the backpack right away too alj... Now I''m trying to see the skinny girl in the pic TG uploaded, but I can''t! I feel kinda bad about my avatar b/c I feel like I''m playing favorites between my pups! Going to have to switch it over to the other one soon!

 

[Jelly]

When I first started on PS, Mara was that gorgeous asscher, Alj was velma (then later the wicked witch). I love deejay''s demon dog picture...it reminds me of when her dog was depressed because his dad was away and refused to eat!
