Leetle peectures!

You may note that a new little picture is showing up next to blog posts and comments (the internet term is "avatar," FYI). Right now almost all of you have the default "no picture" picture, the Clothesline Lady:
Except for me. You can see that my picture is different. It's me as an anime character.
Your picture can be different, too! If you click on a Clothesline Lady next to an entry of yours, it'll take you to your profile page. Click on the "edit" tab and you'll see where you can upload your own leetle peecture. You can make your leetle peecture anything you want: A picture of you, a picture of your kid(s)--any image you want. Just make sure it's no more than 85 pixels wide by 85 pixels tall, and is no more than 30k in size.
Like my me-as-an-anime? There are a lot of avatar generators out there if you want to make yourself into a cartoon character. Here are a sampling of them:
- Flash Avatar Maker, which produces avatars like:
- Dream Avatar Maker, which produces avatars like:

(This one is really fun, look out.) - Doppel Me, which produces avatars like:

...and tons more. But remember: You can use any image, really. You don't have to use a generated one, just keep it to 85x85, no more than 30k.
Have fun with this!

I THOUGHT that was Nathan!
Is that from his Three Guys/Girl/Pizza/whateverthatshowwascalled gig? It's great! I encountered him after that show ended...if I knew then what I know now, I'd never have missed an episode. I just wish he'd star in TV or Movies more often. Need more eye time with Nate.
My avatar is a representation of my inner femme-fatal. It's what I think I'd look like if life were fair and kind. I've got too many inner- personalities--having only one avatar is hard. How to digitally express also my inner-biker babe? my inner-hippie? my inner-belly dancer? my inner-Stevie Nicks? There's so many different faces of Anhata in here...

Someone found this page searching on Google for "Cookie Fillion"--and we're on the first page of results.
hilarious!
Lynn Siprelle, Editor
hm!
it's not there no more! I'm sorry, Shaun, you should have taken a copy right then. I may have taken a screen shot, I can't remember.

The deal
Here was my error: I was checking off the "delete current picture" box at the same time that I was uploading, thinking that I was supposed to delete clothesline lady too. But obviously I was deleting the picture that I was trying to upload. (And then just as I went to edit my post my husband called for me to help with the Rug Doctor!)
