I change avatars like I change clothes-- fairly frequently

. It's always a penguin, just like it's always me in my clothes. That's enough consistency for me. On my other board, I change to random (sometimes wild) avatars, but my name is well-known there, so it's all ok.

My name is a constant, but my "appearance" (avatar) does change.

Ohhhh! So your real name is Ace! Got it.

Just so you know, when I think of GraceKrispy, I think of your name as Gracie which reminds me of Sanda Bullocks character in Miss Congeniality. So, when I read your posts, Gracie, I picture Sandra Bullock in my head!

My avatars were created by my artist daughter. I asked her to, "draw me an avatar" so that's what she did. She drew a picture of me for my avatar. I would like to say that it is an exact rendition, but I wouldn't want to lie.

I have recently asked her to draw a new one for me since I am getting bored with the one I've been using. It will be interesting to see what she comes up with.

I love to look at the avatars but rarely use the image as an indication of personality. I gain a much greater insight from their posts.

Please pass the doughnuts.

Oh how I miss the friendly gray dog with the wagging tail and a taste for bacon and donuts. He was always listening to classical music while eating a maple-bacon donut. Quite a character.

I like to look at avatars, but its in the posts members make that influences my judgement of them.

I'm sure people look at my kitty and think I'm just a goofy cat with questionable tastes in music.

Actually, I have quite good taste in music.

ABBA AND RICK ASTLEY RULE!!!

. . . that didn't come out right.

Oh, fine!! That was wrong, too! ARG!!

Gma, just so you know, I've been accused of walking around with my snub nose in the air!!

Oh, I think Kazbates's avatar is just SOoo cute and sweet! I love the curls and the big eyes. Congrats to the artist! It's lovely.

Oh, and my avatar is kind of a "wannabe".
