OK! Call it peer pressure if you want, but I've been wanting one since a little while after Saxman's event. There's supposed to be a whole kilt thing goin' on at his next campout:

 

 

BTW: I like the urban camo kilt. I'd actually wear that one. The turtle kilt is cool to.

I'm stunningly beautiful, a red-headed green-eyed babe who causes mere mortals to go weak in the knees and swoon with delirious desire. In order to protect the public I only have my hand in my avatar.

Didn't I divorce you, once ????

[+reveritt]

Yeah--that's me.

[+Ed_S]

I've noticed that many cachers use their picture as part of their avatar. Is it vanity? Is it the ultimate expression of identity?

 

Personally, I see the avatar as a creative outlet, not as a venue for my mug.

 

Hey, that's just me.

If you can see my mug in that li'l avatar pic, you've got a better monitor than I do!

 

I like motorcycling, and I like caching. I frequently manage to do both at once. So my avatar shows my other addiction - my motorcycle.

 

(plus, with my limited computer abilities, that's about as creative as I can get!)

I guess I am a little confused as to why people don't use their profile page for real pictures of themselves and their avatar to do what avatars, in my opinion, are meant to do: amuse and confound.

I am not condemning anyone in any fashion.

Difference is what makes this world fun to experience.

To AMUSE === That's exactly why I DO use my picture. It has a "Big Hill" sign pointing at my belly. Sorry -- but that's FUNNY.

[+deimos444]

Cool.

[+Ed Rad]

This is my normal avatar..

 

 

I really look like that.. no kidding.

[+Sue Gremlin]

Who else tilted their monitor in an attempt to answer that age-old question?

[Lesbaru]

I highly approve of kilts, traditional and utilikilts.

[+TEAM RETRIEVER]

LOL! Sorry, I'm a non-kilt wearer, but this thread is funny!

 

Oh, and unfortunately, I look somewhat like my avatar. D-oh!!!!!

[+4leafclover]

Oh MY GAWD...I am SO THERE for the kilt thread!!!

[+Recdiver]

 

I have used this in the past as my avatar and had to stop because of all the highly suggestive PMs I received. Made me blush.

[+Swifteroo]

I honestly don't know what prompted me to select my avatar. It's just a goat.. plain and simple. I somehow liked the way it looked back at me.

 

BAAAAA... BAAAAAA...

 

[+suz55tbird]

Hey, thanks for the kilt pics! And, as far as using my picture as my avatar,

how else would you recognize me? You wouldn't want to accidently eat a geocaching crab, would you?

[+Criminal]

Better?

 

 

The event in Olympia should see a couple kilters as well.

It's my Jeep Cherokee 4X4. (My other hobby) I'm hoping I can combine wheelin' and geocaching!!!!!!

This seems like dejavu. Didn't we discuss before in some avatar thread how being impaled by a weather vane must be painful????

I totally agree with deimos, why do so many 'cachers try to hide their identity. It's not like we're an organization of secret agents, or if someone figures out who you are you'll no longer be able to bag an FTF. In some ways, I feel that obscuring your identity is a form of deception which lessens our sense of community and overall hurts the hobby. IMHO

Please don't show us what is under those kilties.

Under the kilt? Just lipstick....

Good! Just be careful on the next 5 star cache and please don't suddenly post an avatar with that weather vane going all the way through! I would really worry about your health then!

Whose face is that in the waterfall? Did you ever see The Sixth Sense? Weird play of light.

[+canoe_goddess]

I chose to post a real pic of myself for several reasons. It was funny, it was as photogenic as I get, it happened purely by accident while I was geocaching and its the sort of silly, perverse thing I would stage.

[+Colorado Cacher]

What is it? Me.

 

Why? Because I dont know why anybody would want to look at it.

[+Big JohnP]

Hey! All I can say is you guys would not last very long with all the poison ivy we have in Quebec. Even being very careful , I caught the darn stuff twice this year . I would not even dream of trying to wear a kilt while geocaching, even thought my grandparents are Scots .

I'm still waiting for an oficial kilt thread. I know there was one before...I'm just waiting for another.

[+The GeoGadgets Team]

Hey, one of the original geobabes!

Yes, women can wear kilts, and no kilts are not the same as skirts.

 

And Crim, wait a few weeks before starting that thread, so I can add a few pics of my own!

 

Kilt #1 isn't even here yet and I'm already looking at #2.

Yep, and getting more and more babe-like... but that is for another forum topic.

So, how is married life treating Mopar? Or is that another geo-topic, too?

 

[+Sue Gremlin]

No, that would be

Why I declare. I am a married woman!

 

But thanks.

[+TeamAO]

 

Oh yeah. I'm that hot.

[+Snow Birds]

I like avatars that show a sense of humor.

I like avatars that have something to do with a handle.

I like personal avatars that help to show what a person looks like.

 

I don't think that personal avatars are always vanity, but more of a way of helping someone to visualize who they are talking to, much the same as looking someone in the eye while talking in person. But I also figure that if someone really wants to see what I look like, they can look in my profile.

 

You only get one choice, so take your pick.

This IS how I look, sans beard.

 

P.S. Now I'll have to scan the picture of me in a kilt when I lived in Scotland.

[+SGM & MRS D]

I thought it went well with our handle. Sorry no kilt but I think Mrs D in a gown is much better than me in a kilt.

[+Frodo13]

Those utility kilts are great!

To put an end to the age old questions of what's under a kilt. The answer is quite simple. Just ask the person wearing it, if they are a Scot, you will soon have your answer.
