    Quoted from Jgel:

    I guess maybe it's because I am a visual person but why do you/people change their avatar? I just realized that I was talking to someone that I had bought a game from in the past and didn't realize that it was the same person because they changed their avatar. I get used to seeing the little pic and when it changes I don't know who you are. If we had a Pinside meet up I would need everyone to wear a shirt with their avatar on it. Has this ever screwed up anyone else? Maybe I'm just getting old.

    Agree with this statement. I also get used to seeing people by their avatar. But can under stand people that just get tired of the one they use and only change once in a great while. As for the people that change theirs every day, week or month. I think they just wat to feel special or draw attention to them selves.

    I did change mine once after my first 6 months on pinside. The picture I have now I think suits me fine and probably wont change it again.
