My resposne would be the opposite to your question. Why SHOULD we? Prob 33% care, 33% dont care...and the remainder thinks its a bad idea.

My avatar pic is a real pic of me, but for some reason, no-one will believe me.

It seems everyone has a preconceived idea that chimps cannot converse and type. ATS is the one place where I though people might actually accept the possibility of it being true, but alas, even ATS'ers are set in their ways.

I know the feelin dude, nobody believes I'm really me either

I'd be more than happy to post pics of my relatives, friends, coworkers, all that stuff. I'm just not putting my OWN up

About ten years ago I made the mistake of posting my picture on a forum. It made its way to a site, which thankfully is no longer there, where all people did was post cruel comments about how ugly you are. I'm not going to go through something like that again.

I do have a facebook and I have my picture there, but I really don't use facebook anymore.

i'm too handsome, and wouldn't like all the other male ATSers to feel inadequate about their looks.

I came onto ATS with my pic up as I have nothing to hide and feel no shame in regards to my tin foil hat collection. My family and friends know what Im about and thanks to me treating conspiracies like just another part of my online life...a few people have even come aboard. Also I have something special for any would be stalkers should they find my purdy face just too compelling to resist. I changed over to the Predatress because I really like the picture and thought it a fitting replacement for my own pic. I can understand why some people hide their pics though...particularly the ones with a nasty disposition. After all....its easy to turn the tables on a person who is a troll in both action and countenance

I did upload my pic on a side once and found it weeks later on 5 DATING-sides, were they pretended to be me.

Never gonna do that again.

If it wasn't about some freaks out there, I would have uploaded here.

TechUnique, I am totally confused - your picture IS on here is it not?! At least it used to be....

I know this as I've always thought you're a hottie

And you can also see your face in a couple of videos you've posted....

Oh oh, I think the penny has just dropped - IT'S NOT YOU?!


Found it, it's on your member profile.... So is it you or not?!

I dont think the OP has to worry about anything like that

Someone was bound to say it eventually

Force of habit I guess, the less pictures of me floating around the better.

I don't even let people take photos of me, and its rare that you'll find one of me after 2005.

Yup this is me (I was a ATS hybrid boy/monkey experiment)

People having their own pic as an avatar? Well, some people just don't do things that way, and that's fine by me.

I use the avatar that I have because she means something very special to me. She's the only avatar I've had in my years on ATS and I have no intentions of getting a different one.

But I couldn't really care less if people know what I look like. After all, I have a video of myself posted on here. If you really want to see me as I am, it's in my OP on my "Hard Times (and not just in Arkansas)" thread, and the link to it is in my signature.

So was the woman you used to have as your avatar not you? I always thought she was extremely attractive.

Yea, that was me, I have since gained about 30 pounds since I had my son and am disfigured with moonface. I'll sort it out one day lol.

Is ok sweetie, theres someone out there for everyone, even me (once upon a time) and judging by the way you "speak" in your posts, you sound pretty nice to me, as well as intelligent.
Besides, you got your cat dont you?

I've been married for 7 years actually. As for the "cat" that's a dog named Mogwai. He's half Shi(t)zu, half Pomeranian and in that picture he was wet.
