Why your Avatar?

[piikki]

I didn't have UW camera when I began diving, and had very limited photos to choose for avatar. Yet, I wanted something dive-related and preferably of me-myself-and-I diving. The selection of surface photos was pretty lousy for long time but I liked this one and have been too lazy to update. I don't think it even shows but I am holding my hand on my reg in a way that looks like someone just pulled me into the water from my face.

Yet, the only comments I have gotten from the avatar are DIR-aggressive... in the league of "are you one of those DIR-crazies - with the jets in your avatar and all...?"




What does it say about me - probably nothing much....

Mine is about breaking all the rules

Because I'm reading the post by TS&M and many have said they were put off by the Borg Queen in her avatar.

I don't know about the picture of the Borg Queen putting me off. But that picture on her profile page of her vomiting (?) in a river certainly had me wondering. Plus her husband is a lawyer. You can't trust lawyers.

My Avatar is just the only pic that I have of myself underwater.

After this has been beaten to death, we have to do a split off for Usernames. I am still dying to hear where ONESPEED got his from, but last time that topic came up he was serving a ban.

Mine is a picture I took while on a recent trip to Roatan. It is one of a limited quantity of decent pictures I got. I like to change mine and keep something kind of recent. What does it say about me? Don't know, I just thought someone might notice an comment. Does that say anything about me? Is the avatar supposed to say something about me? Did I choose my avatar for some subconscious reason? What should it say about me? Should I be looking at others avatar's to see what they say about them? What would Freud be able to get from somebodies avatar?..................

Hopefully, mine says that I still have an affinity for the TV shows I loved watching as a kid. I also considered using Gumby or Daffy Duck as avatars too. The Davey & Goliath pic won out. It also gave me a bit of anonymity I wanted when I first joined SB. Since then, I've befriended a few SBer's on Facebook, so some of that anonymity is gone... much to their chagrin.:lam:

Some people might read some religious connotations into it, but that would be false. I'm not a Mormon, and I rarely go to church anymore.
