On my hard drive, i have an avatar that was made for me several years ago. It's special to me and i think i'd like to use it here. The problem lies in the fact that i have no web addy on which to store the pic. Might i ask if anyone knows of a place to which i could post this little thing so i could have the use of it here? Thank you for any suggestions you might offer.

What are avatars? Those little pics everyone has for there sigs and stuff?
Cuz i used to be involved with VZones. which is a cool huge thing where you chatted with people from around the world but you controlled this little person you got to name and make look how ya want, it was like a life, At least people in there thought it was actually life cuz you could do whatever. But anywayz. lol. All the little folks running around were called avatars. least thats what i remember.

So does it mean, like your identity but in a little cartoon character type dealy?
 
According to dictionary.com, an avatar is an "image representing a user in a multi-user virtual reality (or VR-like, in the case of Palace) space".

In common usage all over the net these days, avatars can be thought of as graphical images that reflect some aspect of yourself that you wish to share with whomever looks at your words. They are cartoonlike characters, pictorial representations, and plain/ornate symbols or alphanumerics of all shapes and sizes and colors.

Yeh. Av's are like your identity but in graphical form.
