How many PS'rs would you recognize just by their avatar?

No name, just picture. I bet I could recognize quite a few memorable ones!

Do you mean be able to name the usernames that goes with the pictures? Hmmm, I am pretty good about remembering the pictures, but recalling all the names might be hard on some.

It would be interesting to do a collage of AVs and see how many people can name them all.

Great idea! How do you do that?

Many would be easy, such as April Baby, Dancing Fire, Gypsy and of course DiamondSeeker. (Named because they are in this thread, I have many, many dancing in my mind, but as soon as I list them I will have insulted those who I will instantly remember once I have insulted them...)

I bet the number would be far higher than we think until we actually set our minds to it.

Wink, who loves interesting questions on a Sunday morning.

I think we can recognize PS'ers if their avatar is a bling pic. :read:

I would find the bling picture harder to identify. Wink is easy. Traveling Gal was super easy. DF and Skippy are both easy. I tend to remember "different" pictures more.

AprilBaby,

Great question!

There are quite a few Ps'rs that I recognize by their avatar and don't need to look at the name.

In fact, there may be some that I might not place by name alone and would immediately identify if I saw the avatar.

I remember when DS changed hers from her sapphire ring to a diamond ring and I was very confused when looking for her posts lol.

Yes! I have never done that again because it was even confusing to me! haha! It does throw me off when other people do that, too! If I ever reset this AVR, I will try to recreate the exact same avatar picture with the new setting. Otherwise, it will just never change!

Diamondseeker,

Please don't change your avatar!

I love your avatar and the other incredible photos you took of your ring with the pearls! When I first saw those photos in your thread, I was speechless and kept returning to view them. Simply beautiful! Your AVR is amazing in those shots!

I don't think I would recognize too many as my memory is not great. But I know for sure I would and do recognize Haven's avatar and Gypsy's avatar and I did remember SDL's avatar too when she recently changed names but kept the same avatar. I am not good with names though so though I would remember yes I know that avatar I might not be able to match it with a name.

I think I've changed mine 3 times ever exactly for this reason. It's easier for me to find my posts. I got very confused Every time I changed it.

LOL! For years mine was a picture of me kayaking. I changed it with reluctance to my jewelry related image and have been very pleased that it did as it more accurately reflects what I do while working.

Bonus points for the PriceScoper who can tell me what that is you are seeing in my avatar.

I changed my pic briefly several years ago. I found myself quoting my own posts and thinking "that's exactly what I would have written!" - at least I'm consistent, I suppose? :bigsmile:

I think I'd recognise a great many PSers whose profile photos rarely change ::)

A reverse image from a Hearts and Arrows viewer (not ASET nor Idealscope) of your daughter's Crafted by Infinity Princess cut diamond?
I remember seeing it and it was gorgeous.

Winner winner, chicken dinner. Although not my daughter's princess cut. This is indeed the "Hearts" image of the Crafted by Infinity princess cut. It is different from most princess cut "Hearts" images in that it has only two chevrons since Paul is of the belief, with which I heartily subscribe to, that two is the right number of chevrons in a princess cut to maximize the size of the sparkle seen in the princess. This reduces the crushed ice look and allows for more dispersion. This is especially true in princess cuts of less than 2 cts.

Sadly, CBI no longer cuts the princess cuts. I doubt I will ever change the avatar though, as I really love it and remember fondly when they did cut them.
