I wish everyone would upload a picture - any picture for an avatar. It gives you an Identity so we can remember who everyone is. Just go to My Account & then follow the simple directions. Please?

I look just like the picture that goes with Cute. I find it confusing as I remember a face/avatar then people go for a upgrade and I get quite confused

I don't look anything like my little kitty. It really helps me remember when I've read someone's post before if I can link a photo, in my mind. Didn't you say you have a kitty named asterix? How about him/her? I do get confused too. My phone ringtone is "If I only had a brain" he he
by lindalee757 24 Mar 2011
lol-your kitty is a pretty kitty-as I am sure you are too. ~linda~

I agree that it also confuse me when people change their avatars. Meganne and Terre does this from time to time and I'm always need some days to recognise if they are posting cause I watch first on the pics.

In the beginning I had the 'Cute" avatar then I DL my picture. I have found it sooooo much easier to identify my own posts . After you DL the new avatar all your previous posts will have the new avatar. I look nothing like the 'teeny bopper' avatar that Cute have on here. Marg

the real picture is always nicer Marg-this way it's kind of like we are all face to face and we can actually put a face to a name and talent. And you look like a "mature" teeny bopper and there's not a darn thing wrong with that lol-my teeny bopper yrs are long gone =O)
by ansalu 25 Mar 2011
I took an old pic of my kids so I have the "future teeny boppers" ;o)

I agree, it is really nice to put a face with a name. Especially because we are all nice people here on Cute. Good suggestion !!!

First I would have to cut and color my hair, put on some makeup and would like to lose about 30 pounds. Then i will show my face, until then I will remain mysterious. LOL

Come on Bev - don't be shy!!!!
by ansalu 25 Mar 2011
Bev, post a pic of your pet until that time or your favorite flower. Maybe your hubby isn't so shy? *lol*
Greetings, Bettina
by lindalee757 25 Mar 2011
LOL-Bev-yer a hoot!! Just go for it lady,we'll look past the no makeup and gray roots-as for the 30 lbs-who cares-I have the extra 30 also, but that happened after I quit smoking 13yrs ago, started the many stages of menopause, a kick in the butt major surgery(lost that 30 lbs-and gained it right back after the healing process). So hey-the heck with the weight-let's see that smilin' mug....pleeze?? ☺ ~linda~
by hightechgrammy 25 Mar 2011
Why do you think I'm camera shy? You can use any photo! Come on, Bev, you have 17,632 flowers, Post your favorite flower! Find a cute little animated gif. Give us something that represents you or your passions! You can do it, we believe in you!!!!

The avatar that is used by me & others is great, once I looked like her many years ago .Maybe that is why she so widely used.
I tried to upload photo but it froze-I'll try again ,it was a jpg maybe it was too large

I'm so happy you have joined "US" It took me some time, too to feel like I was a Cutie. I don't think of myself as Cute. But, then one day it happened. I don't know why or how, but I think it was when someone offered a kind word and someone else did too. I felt accepted and a part of the group. Maybe it was when I realized that these people were just like me, in so many ways. Ladies who love to sew and embroider, but who love their families, lead REAL lives and who have an extra measure of love to share. I'm glad you are "feelin' the Love" too, Sue. Jan

Dear Jan,

I must admit I always look for people's faces on here. The generic face is O.K. but it's always nice to see who you are "talking" to. Thanks for bringing this up.

A note to newbies - if the picture is too big it will not upload.

Love and blessings Chris

Everyone knows my ugly moosh, that's why I use Betty Boop (boob for me since the double mastectomy and reconstruction. LOL!!!)
Besides, sometimes GK's watch their Grans while they are on Cute and the kiddies love to see all the animated gifs members use for their avatars.

I also like to change mine depending on the special occasion, it's fun!
But I agree I look for the avatars and it takes a while for it to register with me when someone changes their av.

Hugs n roses, Meganne

But I like lavendar !
If there is more than 10 messages under mine asking for a photo, I will change it to a photo of me.
I have been on Cuties for around 18 months and from the beginning I used my lavendar bouquet / Cathie Jones.
I am Ok with "avatar":
Meganne = Betty boop
Sissi brode = a mouse
10tje = her logo
A French lady from Normandy = roses
Smith&Smith = a lovely baby
Cnetnet(French lady)= a teddy bear
Somebody has a horse ...
your cat....

If you like Lavendar, then that's great, I know that Cathie loves lavendar! Now I can associate Cathie and Lavendar. It helps to remember her that way. Do you have lavendar eyes like Elizabeth Taylor????
by cathiejones 25 Mar 2011
Well I have blue-grey eyes !
by hightechgrammy 25 Mar 2011
You look just like Elizabeth Taylor to me - when she was that dazzling young actress with the blue-gray-lavendar eyes :-)
by wishfulthinking 25 Mar 2011
Cathiejones..we cannot 'bear' not having a pic of you..so come on 'bear' all! In other words..'Readyteddyshare'.
