I notice that a lot of people choose the presupplied avatar of spider-man crawling.
Why is that?

Don't you think it would be a bit ... oppressive... if I had an avatar?
If not, then maybe I haven't chosen the right avatar...
Also, you certainly didn't like the last one I used.

Finding the right avatar is a challenging and time consuming task. It took me several minutes to find mine.
Now it would be interestting to know to which extend an avatar is reflecting ones personallity. |

Personality by avatar?

I always choose pictures of actresses, and I get lot of comments about those. |

My project doesn't have a charge code for choosing an Avatar, so I had to do unbilled "work", to find mine.

It's interesting that none of the people using the Spider-Man avatar have posted to this thread.

Easy: Spidey was one of my favorite Marvel characters. A Hero fighting for good against evil. And with the new millenium you can see him as a Web crawler/surfer.
Enjoy
