it is a 2-D cartoon! of course no one looks like an avatar. my goodness, this question has been asked at least 30 times this week alone. why are people so vain that they want to declare that they look like their avatar?!? Do you really think that is what is most important in life, that you get told - oh you are so cute on your avatar? wow. as for me, they really don't have a choice for a 53 year old granny, or believe me i would choose it, so i at least have blue eyes and blondish hair cut short - but does it look like me? heck no.

My hair is blonde and straight. So yes, I look like the avatar I chose.

Normally,the avatar is selected based on the desire to look like that

;) Myself, I believe what makes the BEST avatar is when the individual achieves a fairly-good in-depth self-portrait: I honestly worked HARD to CHOOSE the best options where mine WOULD be! :D
[I am honestly even MORE blue in my DL pic.]
Mine turned out to be an internal self-portrait combined with an external one--it looks like the sum of my self: philosophical, medical, all components considered, an image of the inadequately-breathing dead, a way of being honest with myself in regard to my overall health picture, a coping mechanism in its way [just like my nick, I think they make a good match]. ;)
I think that is the BEST way to reflect one's overall look, if one does in fact capture the WHOLE of one's *look*--looking outside AND INSIDE, the honest facts of their lives.
In that sense, I believe my avatar is a declaration that I am at peace with myself, my life, my fate, which is a gift I would wish for anyone on the path to happiness. :)
I think overall the avatar system is fun, light-hearted, and I actually appreciate the somewhat entertaining way to express my more macabre reality. ;)
I mean, where else can you find such a *cute* way to visually express that I have lost my ever-lovin' mind than that pic showing me there holding my head after it's gone and rolled off? ;)
I also appreciate that it gives ALL users the chance to sort through what they value, how they perceive themselves, how they wish to appear vs how they DO actually appear...what they hope to see in the mirror vs reality...whether they like ALL their components...whether they like THEMSELVES...key factors brought to light by your excellent question--THANKS! :D

I don't know I have never owned a reflective object to see my true appearance.
