Yahoo catches up on the Avatar idea

[MrBishop]

I'd prefer it if they'd allow us to make our own damn avatars, but that'd be asking for too much, eh?

 

[catocom]

Yeah, I messed around with it some, but didn't like any of um.
I wish they'd let you have a custom one. I have a premium acct with um,
they should at least do it for the paying members.

 

[MrBishop]

None of them have facial hair at all, nor any control over it. The closest I could get was a 5 o'clock shadow loosly resembling a goatee and 'stach

 

[catocom]

I'm still using the "uni-sex" silhouette.

 

[unclehobart]

Gah! Don't don't say Yahoo so lound next to my computer lest that damn messenger automatically upload and take over my system.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

Doesn't have grey as a choice for hair. Besides, all the choices are way too young to represent me.

Never mat an IM lately that I didn't have to tweak the spyware out of. (except in linux )

Doesn't have glasses either.

Didn't you know that the internet was supposed to be controlled and used by kidlets only??!?

*sigh*

I'm beginning to get the picture.

 

[MrBishop]

Don't worry...still plenty of us old farts around...between us and AOL, we'll catch up eventually

 

[Nixy]

There ARE glasses available cause I have them on mine.

Also, these have been around for a good year atleast I'd say...give or take a couple months.

 

[BlurOfSerenity]

hahaha, bish, i had to view and modify the source of yours to get mine cos i couldnt figure it out!! but here mine is

 

[BlurOfSerenity]

and it bothers me i can't make a chunky girl avatar because i'm not skinny and unlike a lot of people i don't mind not hiding that fact!

 

[BlurOfSerenity]

wow it changes if you change it!

 

[MrBishop]

No glasses for the men...I'd guess that the ladies have more options 'cause they're more likely to actually go through with it.

 

[BlurOfSerenity]

i like the glasses mine has because they look just like my actual glasses. the hair's pretty dead-on too.

 

[abooja]

This is me. Wish I were actually in Yankee Stadium at the moment with my folks' dog, Cato.

The dog's name is Cato?
That's funny because some people call me Dog.

 

[abooja]

The dog's name is Cato?

Yup. I gave him that name.

And, unless you poop in the backyard like he does, you're probably just a man.

ummmm....I'll leave it at that.
