if anyone else does this. When I read the posts on the board, I look at the avatars and in my mind the writer of the post becomes whatever is in the avatar, sometimes it is a dog speaking or a cat speaking, sometimes it is a child. Now this can be funny but it can be creepy at times, too. Am I the only one that does this?

Probably. I like the Avatars so much. I love seeing the kitties and dogs and beautiful quilts and families. I wouldn't change a thing.

There is one avatar that I really enjoy looking at and it is Krystna's its an old old old kind of picture of a lady hand sewing and for a long time I thought it was really her until there was a post on what we really look like and she looks nothing like her avatar!!! But I see her name and thats what I automatically see. :)

Same with Lori Peercy....I picture her as a yellowish/orangish sunset. LOL

Oooooohhh...

Do you mean, if I change my avatar to be a beautiful young woman, you will think I'm both beautiful... and young?

;-)

I enjoy seeing the avatars, but, no, I don'tthink of them that way.

Well yaeh... kind of.
I see the same way.

Lori is a beautiful sunset and I love Kystyna's also

So I used to be a beautiful baby girl, Now I am my dog. Wooff

Hmmmm... :idea:

Then again maybe I wanna become a nice big chocolate cake.

Well I like the idea of being roses! I do associate The avatar with the person. When someone changes I don't realize who they are!

Mine hasn't changed, ha boring me :) I do relate the avitar to the name tho.

I cant say that Ive done that but my favorite avatar is lauriejo.. hers cracks me up..
