Ed I will abide by your decision but can you please explain what the difference is with me posting pictures of me and other users having their pictures as avatars?
Thank you

...and I always thought your avatar was you, Minty. :-)
pssst..ssshhh..it is !
that's really minty? I assumed it was a Miss World finalist.
Can avatars not be 'fiddled with' by others, then?
Any image you post to a website can be copied and if someone wanted to be altered.
lol Jno xx you can come to tea anytime..will even let you have the broon !!
Question Author
Exactly Tilly.
LIK its fine I haven't taken any offence I am really just trying to find out what the difference is - why did Ed comment on my thread but doesn't feel the need to comment when Minty posts about her avatar?
So really what you want to know is why an Ed doesn't comment when someone else has a personal pic avatar - hopefully you''ll get a response.
remember the Ed doesn't see every post on the site, Islay. She may be entirely unaware that minty has confessed to being the dazzling creature in her avatar. But you started a whole thread on the subject, which naturally attracted more attention. Perhaps someone who was worried about it (for your own security, not to spite you) reported it, or perhaps she just stumbled across it while doing the rounds..
There are several ABers who have their own photo as an avatar.
There are.
Mine isn't me, although we are very similar.
Cold nose?
-- answer removed --
you have glossy hair, bright eyes and a damp nose ? ;0) XX
Islay....while I and many others enjoyed your pictures,
I think Lie-in King is right here.

There are a few people who lurk in the shadows here on AB, that might want to use your photos in a way that you never intended.

The anonymity of this Board could be compromised if photos identifying Members were allowed.

But well done anyway in your "New You" campaign !
My nose is often cold. :-(
Nothing's been taken down.
I suspect its because avatars are quite small pics and if you try to make them bigger to do something nasty to them, its nigh on impossible...they just go to a pixelated blur, whereas a larger picture is more easily downloaded and manipulated. I remember the incident Jno spoke of, it was really nasty.....
Censorship masquerading as for your own good.
Viva, nanny state.
