Baaa

I now have a userpic from that avatar site like everyone else.

If they ever get a tophat pic, I'll consider it.

Heh. Yours looks about as much like you as the ones I was coming up with looked like me. ;-)

I meant "not at all." Except that you apparently were trying for quirky and fun, and I was actually going for a likeness.

Nothing I came up with worked well enough to post. None of the glasses are even remotely right, and they all cover up the entire face. I gave up in disgust.

Yeah... I tried to get one that looked like me, then tried to get one that sort of looked like an iconicized version of me, and nada. I had much better luck with those "doll" things, once I discovered that I could change the backgrounds to (for example) make the figure have a reasonable BMI. ;]

Got a link to the site?

I'm still being stubborn about using my One And Only Userpic, but I did play with the avatar site long enough to get:

and

... which [livejournal.com profile] johnpalmer describes as "eerily accurate and inaccurate at the same time."

If I was really bored, I'd play around with making a set of mood icons ... assuming I can find the site again.
