Profile Pics How Much do you care about them?

[onehitwanda]

It's not working. We have quick memories.

Also, there are certain attributes in your posts that are... trademarks

Like your insatiable crush on @EmilyMiller, expressed in tiny print.

it's not insatiable at all. It's very, very satiable.

I haven't had many over the years. I had Godzilla for awhile, an evil looking dog with red eyes. The Exorcist pic with the light streaming onto the priest. The Satanic wheel/Baphomet I had the last couple of years, and the new one which is just to tweak a few hyenas here on the boards.

I don't pay a lot of attention to them, except for Victoria's...the feet are distracting because I'm...me.

 

[KachinaDoll]

I find them quite useful. It lets me spot my favourite contributors.

None at all it’s what is in their brain that I’m interested in

You must be a lawyer. It's always the small print you gotta look out for!

Why did that give me Crocodile Dundee vibes?

"You call that a dick? This is a dick..."
(I don't remember the exact knife line, lol.)

I don't really think about them that much. Altgough I had always been curious about Bramble Thorns old one. The one on my other account is a meme somebody made of me with some iphone app and posted in the Kik group. This one is just supposed to match my name.

Oh really? There. Changed it up for ya

Even better

 

[SeraphNocturne]

...It's just an avatar in most cases. Mine is my face. Occasionally I swap out an angel silhouette per my moniker.

Ohhh shit are avatar changes instant now?

Yours inspired me to start a conversation due to the similarities at the time. Although, I believe the motivation behind ours is quite different.

 

[Victoria14xs]

Lol, so true! Yours, evocative of some pretty awesome travel experiences. Mine, evocative of something else altogether…

Just a quick question How many of you Care about Profile Pictures of some one's Profile?????

My profile pic gives an instant indication of what sort of stories I write...

 

[secondlullaby]

I think the Literotica platform makes the avatar less important (to readers). But I'd like to give my readers a feeling for what kind of content I create, particularly as I begin posting on Patreon. That should help weed out some people who won't like my content at all.

So I agree with you. I can tell your stories are a bit less dark than many of mine-- and probably flirtier as well.

I mentally write an entire life story about someone's Profile Picture, decide what their politics are, judge them based on this, and never, ever rescind that judgement.

 

[Kumquatqueen]

They just look like coloured blobs to me. It's much easier to distinguish people by username, seeing as that comes up in big blocky bold blue text.

Apart from Duleigh's dogs and a few people with tits or ass, I can't recall what anyone's avatar looks like. Mine doesn't show up that well, but I can't be bothered to change it.

 

[EmilyMiller]

My earlier avatars were rather too provocative. Or rather they maybe worked for me back then, less so now. I’ve gradually both toned them down and made them more personal. Though whatever flavor of image you go for, if it’s recognizably female, it will attract attention.

To be critical, my current one is a little too teenie for someone my age. But Hentai is kinda like that.

[ShelbyDawn57]

I fell like mine gives a face, and therefore a more personal touch to the voice I write with. Maybe I'm wrong, but I also I think it helps my readers engage. I just wish it would eventually matriculate to this forum. The big S is kinda boring...

This one?



It's an obscure pun. One of my early stories here, "Magnum Innominandum", is a kind of pastiche/commentary on Robert Chambers' 1890s weird fiction collection "The King In Yellow" which also features the "Yellow Sign", a mysterious symbol of supernatural power.

I was publishing it to another site which required cover art, and I was casting around for ideas when I came across the symbol above, listed as an old form of the Chinese 王 (wáng = "king"). I thought it looked neat and fit the aesthetic I was going for, especially since 1890s European art had some heavy Chinese influences.

I found an image of the first edition cover of Chambers' book, and sampled the red, white, and yellow from that design to use in my own cover, though the texture I added afterwards ended up darkening them a little:




So the central glyph is literally 'king', in yellow. Har har. And that became my icon here for several years.

While I was reading your explanation I thought it was going to be a "wang" joke.

Or a wang-king joke, even. I was aware it might be taken that way, but not what I was going for!

Nice norks!

What was the question?

No, the webcomic one. with the snarky muse.
