Old Speckled Hen Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 I'm a lover of real ale. My avatar is the crown cap Brewed by Morland which was bought (and closed down) by Greene King in 2000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 I worked in a Morland pub many moons ago and OSH was a favourite beer with the locals I always wanted a tickle-me-Elmo when I was younger and loved Sesame Street, hence the Elmo/chicken avatar....I swap between the current one and Elmo dressed up....

craftyhunnypie Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 My avatar is from when we went to see some golden Buddhas at some temples in Thailand. I loved the sheer glow from them & all the flowers around them. I guess it has just stuck at that. I might change it one day. The name is a pet name from hubby ' hunnypie'. The crafty got put in front because I love to make things - not because I'm a sly fox. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couperman Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 (edited) Mine is Holly the computer from Red Dwarf. I have always been a big red dwarf fan. I think I might change him to the cat next Kev.

snowberry Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 My piccy is of our two 'original' Light Sussex girls, Martha and Rose. It is the only picture that I have been able to reduce down in size successfully. I chose the name Snowberry years ago; it was snowing outside and my daughter's name is Berenice but we call her Berry for short. I get a bit miffed when I join a new forum or whatever and that user anme is already taken ; I should have copyrighted it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatieB Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 I just love my picture but that is probably because I like Noel Clarke and it is him in either Kidulthood or Adulthood (I forget which) and I love both the films too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodcat Posted May 22, 2011 Share Posted May 22, 2011 My username i nicked off my mother because she originally set up the account and typed out the first post when i was away in France with no internet and one of the chooks fell ill. They always pick the worst times to get ill I just took it over once i got back. The avatar is Izzy and Lolly when i first got them at 12 weeks. Lolly's gone now but Izzy is still around. I never change it because it took me about 10 hours to get it there in the first place and i'm terrified encase i take it down and have the same problems getting it back up again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickencam Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Mine was the first picture that I liked when having a look for chicken related images. He looks feisty and proud and I would love to have a cockerel. My user name came from us buying a cheap black and white CCTV camera when we got our first chickens, we had it rigged up in the Eglu, the images weren't great and it made me feel like a peeping tom so we only used it for a short while I too have great trouble changing avatars so all I do is change it at Christmas to the adapted version that my DD made for me the first year I was on here.

The Dogmother Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Mine is of a chicken called Nugget that was owned by a forum member who used to post but has since moved on. I just loved the look on the hen's face. Apart from her christmas hat, I don't change it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
