red Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Hey Murdo - why don't you get an Avatar? - I'm sure the Managing Director or the Assistant to the Managing Director could sort out a suitably demeaning one for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murdo Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Got me down to a T there. Two reasons I've never done it, one of which is that I'm too indecisive. I couldn't possibly decide between all the appropriate possibilities. But I think I'll keep your suggestion to myself or they might do it. Besides, I like to think I remain haughtily above such things. Like the queen. She never feels the need to put her name to our stamps. In the same way I feel it's unnecessary to draw attention to the inherent dignity and weighty import of my postings, which speak for themselves.

Sheilaz Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 Oh, go on, Murdo! I suppose you have the advantage of being the only Murdo. But, in general, its so much quicker to recognise the person posting by the Avatar. Its easier to remember who said what, with the pictures. Some of us need all the aide memoires we can get. Seeing the pics is like recognising old friends. And your daughter could choose. And we could evermore think of you as a fluffy pink chick with a purple scarf. Oh, I see what you mean. A pizza! There must be one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we could evermore think of you as a fluffy pink chick with a purple scarf. Oh, I see what you mean. A pizza! There must be one! Of course. I could simply scale down one of our shipments. I will look into that. Previously I though a magician's hat would be more appropriate but if the popular vote is for a pizza, then such it should be. Though the purple scarf has a family significance too. My sister is probably the only London Solicitor with purple hair. My, doesn't this thread get around.

Lesley Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 You're not going off topic there are you Murdo? And I thought that it was only a 'girly' thing! Definitely has to be Pizza - I always have a mental Avatar of Pizza anyway when I see your name Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs Frugal Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 It's the gremlins Laura. I've temporarily linked the photo to my Photobucket account so that you've at least got an avatar but I'm running out of space on the account so as soon as James sorts out the problem, could you upload it again yourself please?

Mrs Frugal Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 I think I look pretty good considering the hassles I've had with the forum upgrade ! Slightly green around the gills admittedly and the eyes are a bit bloodshot (all 5 of them!) but looking pretty good none the less ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
