What does your Avatar/Profile Picture mean?

[Welsh Zootographer]

That is an awesome picture. What species of monkey is that?

I'm afraid I don't know, but he was pulling my beard! I have another picture of him sitting on my head!

 

[Brum]

Mine is a yellow mongoose because I like the picture!

Mine is now a yellow car, because we share a name!

 

[Kakapo]

So next one will be a yellow what?

Submarine, obviously! I'm not that creative.

[PossumRoach]

Mine is any stupid pic I can find that is appropriate.

 

[Fallax]

I just changed mine to a picture I actually took at Berlin of a Humboldt penguin!

 

[TeaLovingDave]

Mine is now a yellow car, because we share a name!

And you are both fueled by noxious fluids

 

[birdsandbats]

Just changed mine. It is now a picture of a Bearded Barbet I took at the Milwaukee Zoo.

 

[ZooBinh]

Mine is a picture of one of my fish, Cobi, a male Gold Honey Gourami, who unfortunately just passed yesterday.....

 

[Kakapo]

I find an iiwi much more interesting than a bearded barbet but good photo anyway

I do too.

When I joined, I wanted my avatar to be a bird picture I took. At the time, all my pictures were with cell phones or your average point-and-shoot camera, so I filled it in with an Iiwi picture from the internet.

I recently got a nice digital camera, so I am taking much better photos now. That's why I switched it.

 

[Okapipako]

I knew I wanted mine to be of my eternal muse, the okapi, but wanted something different from just a photo of one. I eventually came across this clay one made by DragonsAndBeasties on deviantART and was immediately smitten: Little Okapi

 

[Ebirah766]

Mine is an Australian Lungfish, my favorite animal.

 

[Hipporex]

Mine is an okapi because I that is my favorite animal

 

[Jambo]

Mine is an Wedge tailed eagle that i saw one day in my backyard.

 

[TNT]

My current avatar is a photo of me and my friend Tom with a gorilla statue at Blackpool Zoo. I was giving him and his girlfriend a tour whilst working there in the summer.

 

[TheGerenuk]

Just got a new profile picture! It's a male gerenuk from the San Diego Zoo.

 

[Daktari JG]

I finally figured out how to avatar!
Mine is a Vegas Valley leopard frog.
From extinct to not quite so extinct!

 

[ThylacineAlive]

I think I've had five profile pics in the past? Maybe six? I can't remember. At a couple points I had Thylacines (of course), once I had the old WCS logo with the gazelles I think, and my last one was a photo of London Zoo's old Panay Bushy-Tailed Cloud Rats.

My current one is, of course, a big pile of rocks!

(also known as Northern Elephant Seals)
