uploaded, because I like to be individual
EF Avatars. (Not the blue people)
05/29/2011
I used one that was provided at first, but once I realized how much I love EF, I uploaded my own
05/29/2011
I voted uploaded, but my avatar is one of their provided ones that I altered slightly.

I've always used my own avatar. It was actually on the main page back in the day, a year or more ago, when there was a banner saying "Fun shopping with friends," or something to that effect. I think all the others that had their pics in the banner are gone by now. Now it's just a pic of me with an EF colored vibe in my mouth. I dunno. I just like not having a picture others may have. I often identify reviewers by their pics, so seeing several people with the same one is frustrating.

I always upload my own.

I wanted to be me.

I upload my own. My name is based off of an old femme fatale from a 1940s graphic novel series. I have pics of this character and I love her.

FTR, Jessica Rabbit was based on the original P'Gell from Will Eisner's comics and graphic novels.

Hey, that's cool! It makes your already cool sounding name even more cool.

The EF options are nice, but I really prefer to upload mine. Also, I like to occasionally change mine, depending on my mood I suppose.
05/30/2011
I like when people have uploaded their icons so I can recognize them in forums, comments or reviews without reading the alias.
05/30/2011
I upload my own most places, EF included. Just makes it more personal and unique. I did use one of the ones provided for a while at first though.
05/30/2011
Originally used the provided, then made one of my own after taking a picture.
05/30/2011
I uploaded mine, because if the internet needs anything, it definitely needs more pictures of chibi red-heads menstruating demons.
05/30/2011
Its me! I like being able to recognize others by pic, so I offer up mine with that same reason.

I absolutely love retro pinup art and retro style. I think it is so very sexy to balance a certain amount of primness with raw sexuality, conveying just enough sexual promise behind the veneer of propriety to be enchantingly mysterious.
I looked long and hard for the perfect retro pinup. I chose this one because it does not convey a boldly provocative, in-your-face sexuality, but it instead conveys at least a small amount of modesty and conservatism (without being prudishly conservative---ick!). The portrait in my avatar illustrates an undeniable and sweetly manipulative sexuality: a woman who clearly understands the power of her sexuality despite a seeming level of innocence.

I uploaded mine because I like to be identifiable online and though at the time I was trying to keep my face off of my kinky and other adult profiles, I really like celestial bodies so I picked Mars and now that I have decided to start posting head shots I can't bring myself to change it on this one. I have my head shot on my Fetlife account if anyone is interested link

Wish more people will upload their own avatars, sometimes it's quite confusing trying to sort out posts done by different people using the same avatar.

Haha. I get that way, too. My last one was Mae West.

I uploaded mine. It came from some artwork I did of a girl getting flogged. I can understand not wanting an identity here. But I do like an image being a part of my association with users.

I appreciate a conservative prudish-ness--because it makes things more fun, I think, when a chance comes to be just a little naughty? I could write volumes on this topic, it is something I like and even value--sugar and spice.

My avatar is morbid & sexy just like me :o)

I use a provided one, but that is because I am newish and still figuring out what I want my permanent one to be.
06/10/2011
I'm a painter and I always use my own art as an avatar. Very rarely do I make an exception.
06/12/2011
I uploaded my own. I'm there in the background a with my husband. It's all nature, so I love it!
06/12/2011
I uploaded my own, and it is me.

We use one of the provided avatars for now, but will upload a custom one when we find one that we like. Like others have said, the provided ones work, but we would rather not blend in and have an avatar that people would recognize as being us.

I just found something that I thought was nice and uploaded it.
