Whats with everyone changing their avatar to a photo of themself? I think MacMyDay has started something there.
Do you feel it gives a more 'personal' touch to postings? I think it does. The problem is that with logos it's very easy to see at a glance who posted, whereas with photos it takes a split second longer.

I think you'll find top hat started it, closely followed by Mac, Nic, Me, Nigel (now changed thank god) and then others.
Nice to see you've joined us matrixx.
p.s Nige....You know I love you really, but you have to admit that that was scary!

Hi all,
I would put a piccy of myself up but I'd get nothing done, I'd post and then sit there staring at my handsome good looks.
Seriously though, it is something I have receommended to people over time, a good frrnt facing eyeshot can instantly build rapport with a customer and is ideal on a contact page.
Maybe I'll post the naked ones I had done for the Zummerzet Farmes Calendar 2006.

ps youre all Martini drinkers :-)

Seconded! I want to see Hayles. If your looks equate your soft, sensitive nature, you're bound to be next year's avatar winner :wink:
Cheers, Nigel

Mac, is your head really that big or have you got a wide angle lens on the camera? ;)
Matrixx have you added a bit of colour to your eyes? They are very blue, in fact I think it looks like you are trying to hyponotise us, "Look into my eyes, don't look around my eyes, look into my eyes, your under!" ;)
I'm not posting my picture, I'm far too embarrassed and the one I have got makes me look as if I'm just about to tip over backwards.

I just assume most people are men, unless their name says otherwise. In fact that's probably the wrong way round. I should assume most people on here are women, unless they're named otherwise (or they're a Web designer!)

Absolutely no fake colours added to my eyes or any where else.
My eyes are just blue :)
