Seriousness [POLL] Help me pick a new avatar!

9littlebees · 10-02-2012, 04:35 PM

I'm looking to replace my current (boring) avatar with one of many that I've collected over the years, from various photography projects including a 365-day one over on Flickr.

So which of these 10 self-portraits do you like best?

1. Distance (current one)

2. Firehair

3. Splatter

4. Bugeye

5. Blur

6. Hulk

7. Hunger

8. Masquerade

9. Peeking

10. 9LittleBees

I voted for masquerade. Although I also liked Splatter, Blur and Hulk.

I'm not sure between Distance (yes, it's not so bad as you think!) and Masquerade, maybe tend a little bit towards Masquerade. And I must admit that I really dislike some of your ideas like nr 2, 3, 6. But that's of course just a personal opinion, others and you might love it.

Masquerade or your current one. I am not really fond of the other ones.

Thanks for the comments. I appreciate some of the less popular ones are probably not very fitting on a literary site like this, though they were reasonably popular on Flickr and a number of other sites. Different contexts, I guess.

I like Masquerade the best - it's the one that makes me think the most about what I'm viewing. I also like its composition.
