i'm too indecisive to pick one image to represent myself, my pets, and my biking interests... :-(
I have to admit sara's kind of frightened meI like the sunflower much more.
Some avatars make me chuckle - rij73's , righteousbabes' cat with the melon on it's head, clockworkorange's dog, Ace's dog (what a great expression), mtkitchn's ostrich, mtbdarby's porker.
I also like the avatars that show the poster riding her bike or running.

I love the sunflower! I'm gone on camels, thus my avatar. She's a beauty, don't you think?![]()

I belong to other forums as well, and wanted this avatar to be different. I'm starting to identify with the blue electric wheel/circle. Kind of matches my mental state these days...
I noticed that some people with avatars that aren't pictures of themselves made their "profile picture" a picture of themselves. I just did that and think it's nice. So a quick click on anyone's avatar can show you what they look like too! It's just a shame about the file size limit. Makes us all look really tiny!![]()
You know, I just picked the name Starfish because I was in a hurry, wanted to log on and post, and it does have some meaning for me, with the little story.
BUT...if I had realized how much I was going to see and hear "Starfish" because of it, I would have put a little more thought into my Username.
I don't really like my avatar, but I wanted one, because they are helpful (and fun!!) in using the boards...but this was what I found quickly and easily on the internet.
Someday, maybe, I'll find an avatar I really like. Maybe a pic of myself next year, on top of Shasta, thinner, and having finished the Super Century's 16,000 feet!!!![]()

I'm a member of another forum that i rarely post to, but the frequent posters often have a Avatar Month thing where they change the topic of the month and then you find an avatar that fits the topic that is also you. It's kinda funny, because when you're not in on the joke its rather odd to be confronted with a bunch of shirtless b-list actors or something on everyone's avatar and you're going, 'uhm...whatthehell'.

I would explain my avatar but right now my friend and I are taking turns picking fleas off one another.

...and I am NOT a bunny's butt!!!
But I have to admit, bunnies have darned cute butts!!![]()
However, I am fickle, and do like to change my avatar with my mood, the season, when I see a cool pic. That said, I have other forums where I have not yet changed my avatar. Only here. I guess I wanna keep you guessing??

My avatar's name reflects how I ride. I hope I am not the only one who watched Gumby and POKEY when younger.![]()
