Who is your "less obvious" avatar ? I've always wondered, have you ?

Having been on DU for over 7 years now, I've seen many male and female avatars who I cannot identify. Are you the same ?

Anyone willing to play "identify the avatar" game ? I'll go first. Mine is FDR (duh)

there have been a few that I thought were personal pictures of self or family only to see them in the DU avatar gallery.

right click and properties usually clears that up but I often forget and just associate the avatar with the poster and then get really confused when people change them.

I don't see them on my phone? No Sig lines either. Bucky was complaining that mine is 'stupid', so I'm not sure if it followed me to DU3 or if he just remembered it from DU2?

It's this ==> if you can see it. Avatars didn't transfer over, so I put mine in my sig file (which you also can't see). But I have no recollection of your avatar from #2. I was just being silly by pointing out that your new image is the default generic "ghost man" avatar.

Hmmm. I may have to drag out that laptop and go to Starbucks. Ghost avatar, spooky. I am grey colored and hairless. How did it know?
