I wonder what people think of me as...
Well, I do think it terms of names and avatars, not real pictures or real names.
I shall not show you my real photo, as I don't want to frighten anyone :wink: .

This is a picture of me. I wish I looked more like my avatar, but sadly the glasses stay
I can sort of associate your avatar with you, there is a subtle similarity.
Bruce doesn't wear glasses?!?
:shock: , that's shocking. I always pictured him as the 'librarian' in the avatar.
P.S. I really like your monastery, Bruce!

Since I have never met any of you in "real life", My mental image is basically whatever little picture is under your name. :D For the record, mine looks nothing like me...

However, the original Harry Potter head is firmly ingrained in my head (and half of CC, it seems) as "my" head.
So which do you prefer? I ask because you may be given a cameo in a story I'm planning... unless you have some sort of silly objection. :P

Having now met a few online AFOL's, I can now read their posts and in my mind, I hear their voices. It's an odd thing, really.

I've posted an actual picture of myself once. It's now been deleted. From reactions I get, I guess most assume that I am male, though in fact I am very much female.

And I promise I'm not nearly as morbid as some of you might beleive. Normally. Sometimes. ;)

Sneaky sneaky! :lol: I'll get a sigfig up soon, if I remember. Until then, all of you can see me as my picture in the last post I made in this thread!

Or you can all just wait till my books come out.... :P

Because I don't know any of you, I tend to see you as your avatar. Even if I saw a picture of the "real" you, I would still picture you as your avatar. Maybe if I met one of you in person then I would see the "real" you instead of your avatar.

Whoa, that was a mouthfull.
Don't tell me you all think of me as a green-faced lunatic...?
Nope.
