Because I'm in my cacoon.
I'm going to burst out into a beautiful butterfly probably any day with a sweet avatar and it'll shock you so hard, dawg

Really?
It’ll be so glorious that I’ll just perish from its beauty?
I would like to see that.

Hey GC, you seem to know a lot about how stuff works here. Why doesn’t that link let you play it on the page anymore? I think there used to be an embed feature or something

There’s still a lot of stuff I don’t know.
If there was something that used to allow you to embed that in there and it can’t anymore.
Maybe it updated and it’s not supported currently.
I tried using the button next to the picture symbol.
But this would be something to ask Ythan.

I wanted to know the same thing.
That’s actually the last buttons for me to figure out. I still don’t know how to use it.

To the original question...

If someone thinks that there's no permanent self it's hard to pick an image to represent your "self".  A name is necessary to use the forum.  An image is extra self.

As your image of yourself, evolves or changes. There’s no reason why your avatar can’t as well.
That’s a very valid reason for not having one. But I’m sure you see yourself as something or someone.

I get that but I need more than a username to help remember who people are.

I don't wear jewelry or a watch, I won't wear a wedding ring, I don't have any tattoos - and I don't have an avatar.

It feels the same as those music videos where it’s just a blurry out of focus shot. In a completely white room, just playing instruments. When all the rest of the music videos are really awesome that they make.
It doesn’t really detract from how awesome all of their music videos are. It’s just very boring for someone so cool.

That’s how I feel when people don’t have avatars.

Well, I don't see people as music videos. Perhaps that's part of it.

Avatars are kind of nice in the sense that they make someone quickly recognizable. However, especially on forums like this one, the excess of animated avatars is distracting and the overall effect is counterproductive. I also think it's kind of camp; people trying to look cool by having a couple of pixels suspended below their nickname. I don't like to present myself that way. To each their own.

Don't get me wrong; if you like your avatar, enjoy it. It's nice to have the choice.

There is also the mood indicator, but the use of it changes the mood. Chameleon avatar maybe, but it would need to be always changing. The self-non-self center is non-avatarish. A yantra or something psychedelic is cool. Maybe the lensing filosof. I thought I saw someone with a gravitational lensing avatar.

I agree with the animated avatars, I can't freaking read with the stuff going on, cool as they may be.

The less I identify with any of my many versions of self the easier life is.
