Title: Avatar useage
Post by: Janice on October 24, 2009, 01:51:37

Dear Moderators,
I can't figure out how to send you an email on this so will just jump out there and say that I have a question concerning avatars.  I see someone else using the same avatar as mine, is this an accident or is it a common happening?  In the few years that I have been a member I have not seen this happen to anyone else.  I feel like my identity is not my own anymore.  I see my avatar and think it is me, only it isn't.  Do I need to select an uncommon avatar to have one that is only mine?  Please advise.

Janice

Where did you get your avatar?

Hi Janice,

It looks like you're using one of the "in house" avatars which I created. Unfortunately, these are not exclusive because of the way the system is set up.

In order to have a unique avatar, you need to create your own and upload it. You don't need webhosting because it can be attached at the forum the same as any other image via your Profile section. :)

Avatar images at PlaymoFriends have a size restriction. The maximum is 80 x 80 pixels, which is the same as the picture you are now using.

I think Sylvia has covered just about every thing that can happen in your situation, Janice! The only other way to prevent is, developing a custom avatar using a self made photo like I did. Let me know if you wish to do this, & we will gladly assist you in this project!

Bill,
I will definitely need help with this.  I just need to think what klicky i want to use.  I really liked the one I had.  Can you give me a little time and then help me?  Thanks so much.

Janice,

You could have Bill help you modify your current avatar, just a thought.

The new avatar is lovely, Janice! :love:

That dark grey kitten looks just like our real kitten, Alfie, who is about 15 weeks old. ;D

Great new avatar Janice, I know how confusing it can be when you just glance at the avatar sometimes.
