    I picked mine because I post from work for one. For two, it's my fave video game character and when I hit my goal weight will be my first cosplay.

    I don't think it makes anyone percieve anything really about me... unless they think I'm a game freak or something lol

    I'm sure that it does. We all know that judging a book by its cover could lead us to a very misguided judgment though.

    What do I portray?

    Like you'd Like to Teach the World to Sing in a 70s Coca Cola commercial? Or maybe a cult where everyone wears white? (I kid.) :wink:

    I can relate to my avatar. I have always had a big (but shapely) backside and have always been proud of it, despite the crtiical comments of others - and I thought this picture reflected that pride :happy:

    I have no idea whether it affects the way folks perceive me - and TBH I don't really care!

    I LOVE this quote! I don't think I could have said it any better!!!!

    Today mine is my kids because it's my son's first day of 1st grade! Yay! LOL

    Normally, I just choose pictures I like of myself. No rocket science behind the why. :) I just like them.

    I've always wondered what peoples first impressions are from that one picture. Personally I dont put much thought into the picture itself, its just so rare that I find a decent picture of myself and when they do come along I like to show them off!

    I am sure it does for some people....

    My picture is just my best & most recent picture of me...Of course I love that my youngest son is in it too...I would love to get one with me and both of my boys....I don't photograph very well, so I only have a few decent ones with me in it for now...I hope that changes soon!! :)
