Title: Let's Play a Game: #ThrowbackThursday Avatars
Post by: CPTBadAss on Thu, 24 April 2014, 09:37:47
There's an issue at work and I'm bored. Let's play a game. Change your avatar to something you used to have! And maybe put some #TBT in your custom title.

Does anyone remember when everyone had the rotated girlshark avatar and then ClickClack had that incredible skeleton one? I think BroCaps had that metal girlshark too.

Your avatar will always be Mari to me Sifo. I tend to remember people's original avatars or names. That's why I hate name changes. :(

Is this your new or old avatar?  I really like the flowers print.

Anybody remember Geno's Restaurant in midtown?  They've been closed for a few years, but I still remember their wallpaper.  For some reason your avatar reminded me of that old-time handmade wallpaper.

Nobody has anything like that nowadays.  It's all cheap crap.

That is the reason I have pretty much never changed mine. There have been a few variations of it but all roughly the same. Most avatars I have made have been for others.

I found a gif I had temporarily:

Yeah, there are a lot of people who I recognize more by avatar then name. Sometimes when a person changes there avatar it takes me a minute to realize they are still the same person, lol. Ex: IvanIvanovich.

No one can change anything :P
