Is it wrong to fancy a Yahoo avatar?

Question

Is it just me or are these avatar pics hot? I think it must be the big eyes, and the fact that all the avatars look about 16-18 years old.

Well I fancy yours too Rose, but I think I covered that in the question.

I did try to make mine look as much like me as possible though.

Answer 1

That is a brilliant question - I don't think it is wrong at all I quite fancy a few avatars myself

Answer 2

I think fancy is the wrong word. It's not wrong to be attracted to an avatar. In fact, I bet loads of people are attracted to avatars on here. Yours is very attractive I must say.

I on the other hand, found that my avatar looked nothing like me so I just use a photo instead.

Answer 3

Are you likely to find satisfaction in a relationship with an avatar? As fantasies go, they're all valid...whatever does it for you is perfectly okay. But at the end of the day, do realize that they're computer-generated artwork and nothing more. Have fun!

Answer 4

You know, a lot of the people on here are probably as ugly as sin, but hey, the avatars are kind of cute, in a scary, big eyed crazed expression sort of way..

Answer 5

it's very wrong and shows just how shallow you must really be. Yahoo avitars have no personality, no sense of humor, and they don't actually exist. To say that is to say that the only thing you care about in the opposite sex is looks, and, therefore you are ridiculously shallow.

Answer 6

I'm sure I truly wouldn't know...I'm TOOO COOOOOOOLLLDDDDD! ;)


Em...perhaps better to consider the overall impression???

;) 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 7

They are cute the only resemblance with me and my avatar is I have red hair and big blue eyes.

Answer 8

It is kind of weird but you can't get in trouble freaking on an avatar lol

Answer 9

it is not wrong, it is because , the people who fancy avatar is naive, or lack of good lovers, or just too bored. 2 points yea.

Answer 10

I love that question! That's my favourite so far..!

Hey be careful though - my granny has an Avatar and she's one ugly chick.
