It's somewhat annoying and confusing to see several different people have the same avatar.  I'm thinking specifically of two examples--JediMAC's ubiquitous Royal Guard, and Scott's ICMG.

Especially with the Royal Guard--it's so unmistakably Colman, it just throws me off whenever I'm scanning through a thread and see it, only to find out that it's someone else's post.

I think it oughta be that once someone snags an avatar, nobody else can use it until the original person gives it up again.

See Berry?!  I told you!   :-*

I tried to get Berry to let me have that one all to myself long ago, before anyone else started "sharing" it, but he wouldn't let me...   >:(  Now we've got at least 3 members here with it, maybe more.

Confuses me too.  Sometimes I stop at the Royal Guard and say "Huh?!  When the hell did I say that?!?"  Only to discover it's evenflow or Tammy...   :P

Give it to me, boss!

Nothing personal against them, but I personally feel cheated when I come across that avatar, and it's not a JediMAC post.

It's like--there's just something inherently wrong with that.

It'd be like if someone started using my avatar.  

I'd freak.

my newest avatar is the greatest picture ever. thanks matt for making me laugh my ass off...

click here for the full size image. believe me, it's worth it.

Funny, but that's Coheteboy from Galactic Hunter there!   :P  He and I were chatting at the Hasbro booth at SDCC, and I mentioned that Jared was taking some VOTC pix for us, so Dave (Cohete) stuck his mug behind the Boba on the opposite side of the cabinet just to be a goof and hopefully wind up in our JD picture archive.  Probably wasn't expecting that to turn into someone's avatar though, I bet...   ;)

Nice picture Dave!   :D

This coming from the person who briefly "swiped" Carnor Jax's user ID?!   :P

Hmm...   ;)

you just need to personalize it, instead of just using one off the shelf... add your name or something to it. make it your own, make it stand out from the other royal guards out there....

It needs to say "Meow?", then it'd be perfect.  ;D
