But back on topic...
I never have trouble recognizing mauve shirt, Coplanter, or cookie monster's avatar.
Well I'll see your Kyoshi and raise you an Avatar Kuruk:
And an Avatar Yang Chen:
Serpentine, can't think of anyone else.
I always remember Serpentine's avatars. Who else has a giant snake-legged person as an avatar?
I also love CurlyKitGirl's avatars, since they're well drawn and creative.
The simu-ninja!
Maybe I need to bring him back... :smallamused:
Yay! :smallbiggrin:
Anyway...distinctive avatars, eh?
VT. Gorbash Kazdar. Veera. Serpentine. The Giant. Rawhide. Charity. Roland. Zherog. Recaiden. Dallas. EE. Syka. Darius. Kyrian. Saithis. Rutskarn. Nemglan.
I'll probably think of more.
Rawhide, Tribble, Amotis (especially 'cause of Amotis Day), Koorli, Sneak before he and DD went on their spree, Serp, Alarra, Wadledo....and more.
I think it has to do with those who create and mantain a definite and stable visual identity. It's not only about having a single avatar forever, there can be variations to it within a theme, and that's trickier to pull, especially when the theme is not so evident.
I think that presence and exposure to the avatar and the username is what does the trick. Not necessarily the person behind it.
Yes it is. Bonus points for a well cultured reference instead of the obvious *bows*
Also guys, spamming the thread with characters from that cartoon got old fast :/
Fax, Tribble, EE, Solo, Tippy, and PZ.
Aside from the quip about "you can't spell 'infamous' without 'famous'!", wadledo might have a point. If we still had animated avatars, and someone had one of those retina-searing fluorescent animated .gifs, would that be worth celebrating? On the other hand, I am not considering the person using the avatar in my selections. If anything, I'm looking at the artist and wondering who it is (since I have signatures disabled, and only rarely remember to View Public Profile for a temporary sig display).
My GB week avatar was pretty infamous.
I am so confused, my entire universe is caving in. I dont think Jibar has been mentioned ONCE in this thread.... :smalleek:
How is the Cat-Muffin not a recognizable symbol of the playground?!
Beholder 1995, back when he was here. Lord Fullbladder, FF Fanboy, Evil Elitist, Trog, Lord Herman, and Serpy of Course.
Sneak's, Bor's and The cookie monster one (sorry I forgot your name :smallfrown:)
Oh, and the Giant :smalltongue:
I used to have a famous/memorable avatar, but I guess everybody forgot about it, so maybe not. :smallfrown:
I don't really think I could make a list of famous avatars. I've got nearly all the custom ones cataloged somewhere in my head, which means the only filter I can apply is 'which ones are/were my favorites?' Or... is that the point here?
Too many...
Oh no, Phoe, your avatars are recognizable :smallwink: In fact, I'd say yours are one of the most memorable ones on the forum :smallsmile:
For me, I recognize avatars of the people I chat with on regular basis. Some, like Atreyu's, Goof's and few others are known to me, even if I don't speak to them often. But I memorize all avatars pretty well.
