why are avatars so good looking? i mean there isnt one ugly avatar around!?

Question

how many ppl look identical to their avatars? i do

Answer 1

Thanks for saying I'm NOT ugly! :D

;) 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

Answer 2

Well I did my best to make it ugly. I like the thought of looking better than my bloody avatar. Do you fancy avatars though?!

Answer 3

I have the short "spikey" hair though my actual hair color is black. My eyes and eyebrows is similar to the ones on my avatar. And my complexion is a slight darker.

Answer 4

It's sort of freaky how much I look like my avatar.

Answer 5

i look like my avatar...Well my hair isn't short, unless I put it in shirley temple curls lol, and my eyes are slanted like hers, as well as my lips look the same lol.

Answer 6

it rather is basically a very last inn call for cultural help in this commercialistic, materialistic wilderness. it rather is a cry for individuality that is graasping at straws to attempt to resurect our personalities buried below slicing-section-day "conveniences"

Answer 7

I do, its weird how alike it looks to me.

Answer 8

i do...i aint lying either
