*Tigerlily* Member # 3567	posted Good morning, Charm! First of all, I don't find your avatar offensive although muslims in general dislike pigs due to religious reasons so pork meat is haram (forbidden) to eat. But then again look how they treat their other animals so actually I am happy that pigs don't have to go through the same misery. Although I must say I once left another forum because of an offensive avatar. One moderator used a Hitler avatar and I told that this is totally inappropriate. He got very offensive that this was none of my business and actually it was supposed to be a joke anyway. Well, I decided I don't have to stay on a forum where people think like that (a moderator after all!) although I missed communicating with Monica for a while. And believe me especially in Egypt I heard too many times that the late dictator was such a 'great man' once they heard I came from Germany. But back to the 'piggy' subject: I also have a little piglet poster over my computer hanging so I like these animals, my kids have stuffed animals incl. pigs they snuggle and play with. My grandfather and aunt both had farms and when I was younger during the summer holidays I would run chores on there incl. feeding pigs the leftovers (very smelly job although ). And I stopped eating pork meat a good two months ago (how influential can be one TV documentary! ), infact I stay completely away now from meat so you don't have to worry about me, I am not going to be after you. I LOVE PIGGIES, PIGLETS, PIGS!!!!!!! About my avatar, well I use this one and it was second choice after I saw that ES member did el_sayed already used the one I wanted and actually more look like. I like to identify myself with a picture, I just can't imagine to post here as a coffee mug or something else. Well if the admins would have offered some flower avatars I would have definitely jumped on that too (a tigerlilly would have been perfect ). The choice of avatars is very limited here on this forum and I think the way people choose their usernames is more interesting anyway. I came on here as 'Tigerlily' because first of all I like that name, I think it's beautiful, it's unique, it's a flower, it's a name of a CD by Natalie Merchant (my husband introduced me to her great music BTW), it's the name of the princess in the Walt Disney movie Peter Pan, Woody Allen even made a movie (What's up Tigerlily?)... I purposely chose a non-Arabic username for this forum to show I am foreigner. Well, Charm, how about you?
mac0623 Member # 10529	posted i think when you are typing to a person you get a mental image of that person ,what it says about the person umm i dont know.i think the person will choses thier avatar which they think suits them,i could think of a few more pictures to put with people

~Sharon Stone~ Member # 5169	posted I think board was much better without avatars. I doubt I will ever have one. I think people pay more attention to avatar then to actual content of the post. How good is that?
Charm El Feikh? Member # 10243	posted seriously?!! what on earth makes you think that?
Charm El Feikh? Member # 10243	posted ha ha ha!!!! ive just realised one of the benefits of changing your name and avatar..... you can contradict yourself and get away with it... nice one AA/BB. gonna work your way through the alphabet? wish id realised who you were sooner.

suzy24/7 Member # 10317	posted I chose mine because I was listening to a song at the time that said "lifes like an hourglass glued to the table" and I didnt like any of the other ones. It doesn't really say much about me. Maybe that I'm running out of time and I'm just sitting here doing nothing hehe My name is just my name! I couldnt be bothered to think of a better one. And I am me 24 hours a day 7 days a week. Thats about it!

Maybe that I'm running out of time and I'm just sitting here doing nothing hehe It confuses me when you post though as the first time I saw you posting I thought I was going crazy as I didn't remember saying what you wrote Any chance that you could change it as I had been using this one for several months before you registered?
suzy24/7 Member # 10317	posted Hehe yeah you confused me as well for a while. But yeah I'll have a look and see what other ones there are. No worries.

suzy24/7 Member # 10317	posted How about this one? I use exclamation marks alot. I'm just gonna have to pick the morbid skull one you know, no one seems to have that one. And then everyone will think I am obsessed with death or something...ohhhh it wont be good!
Charm El Feikh? Member # 10243	posted someone does use it, not often though.... or mabey its just on the politics thread? there are lots left!!!

suzy24/7 Member # 10317	posted That is a good question Charm. I am always awake late though, its the only time anyone interesting is online for me to talk to! And obviously I have no social life hehe. Ok well I do but everyone has gone home for Easter and I'm not going until tomorrow.
Charm El Feikh? Member # 10243	posted oh... i get you.... not talking to me!! LOL!!!
suzy24/7 Member # 10317	posted sorry, I thought you'd gone so I didnt see the point in quoting. I have decided to keep this one (until someone asks me to change it at least!) what do you think? I became more and more attracted to it as I was looking at them!
newcomer Member # 1056	posted quote: Originally posted by suzy24/7: Hehe yeah you confused me as well for a while. But yeah I'll have a look and see what other ones there are. No worries.
