Yes. The avatar and the handle affects one’s perception of the person behind it.
My avatar is a picture of myself doing the finger with a sword across my mouth. It kind of represents my attitude and the words I speak - i.e. I like to cut through the bullshit, and so forth.
Of course, there are probably those who think I’m a steaming dickhead…but I don’t give a fuck!

Do you feel like your speaking to Frank Zane now?[/quote]

I had wondered about the random sword across your avi, now I know 
I want your cocktail… FRUIT!
I find Rainjack easier to take seriously now that his avatar is of Mario Pudnowski, instead of the stick figure he had before.
Watching internet shouting from a stick-figure over the internet is difficult to take seriously.

Dude, I didn’t know who you were until today. Is this your first post or something?
I will be looking for a new one after the election, and God help us if I’m wrong.
And yes I judge people based on their av. Not because I think its a good representation of their character, but it’s just all I have to go by until I get to know you better.
I feel that I have nothing to contribute…

I like Live’s avatar for some reason.

Nope, my 1495th. I changed my avatar recently so you’d probably recognize me by the old one. I’ve had a lot of time away from T-Nation, but just came back into active posting about a month ago.
