I don't know about any of you, but when I'm on a forum, I start to get to know people by their avatars.

Like I'll see someone with Kairi in their avatar, and assume that they're a girl. Then they change it to Luke Skywalker or someone and I get thrown for a loop. Especially when you're on a thread with the same person a lot (such as roleplaying).

Anyone else feel the same?

so whats my first impression since ive got a male and a female in mine?

[khoathkeeper13]

funny that this thread was made right when I changed my avatar xD Yeah it's the same with me, if someone changes their avatar I shortly think they are a new member until I notice their user name

I dunno, but I think of you as a ... I can't make out such a small picture. I think you believe in romance, but the black border makes me think guy. Then again, the purple sways me towards the girl side...

What am I turning into, a fortune teller?

[Protoman]

I have a guy as my avatar 24/7 just so people think im a guy.

[Hige Unari]

I pretty much assume gender based on avi all the time. Right nowi have a girl for an rp but I'm a guy, specifically a gay guy soo .....hmmm Girl avi or boy avi? Idk

[KHSonic]

Well i guess you can look at their profile if you are really curious lol. (new member as of yesterday ^^)

[TerraRedeemed]

pretty good first impression lol if you cut out that sentence about my being a girl youd be dead on

[Kinode]

I used to judge people by Avatars too.
Didn't work out lol

I'm the one who throws you for a loop! Off the top of my head, I've had:

X-23, ALbert Wesker, Serah Farron, The Doctor, Ezio Auditore, Alice Liddell, Dark Helmet, Lady Gaga, The Stig...

I change every week or so.

[AnsemTheWise]

Because nothing says "manly" like Jessica Alba...

[Space Cowboy]

Touche...

[yayitsdre]

That's how I used to go about it. But, since it wasn't the most reliable, if you will, I'd go to their profile or something. x]

[darkchaser]

So what would you judge me as? and no looking at my profile.

guilty well protoman is pritty manly!

[FireStorm 162]

I just have characters and people I like, and since guys usually seem to be horribly annoying in animes/games/whatever else, I always have a female as my avi, I'm manly like that. Look at my signature to see how manly I am

[xion---424]

i like eyes and i have eyes =o yeay it works

[Oishii]

Hmmm, I don't really judge people by their avi's but it's usually how I recognize people. It's because I'm horrible with names. An avi is almost like your face on the internet. When people I know change avi's, I will start treating them like strangers XD I'm horrible like that.
