I always ask myself if there is something about Avis / Siggys / IDs that atract people in any way at all. I don't think they should, but do they?
  • I could be the ugliest woman to have walked on earth and yet does my avi make me that pretty girl in cyberspace? In that case, do I live vicariously through her? ..
  • How about siggy? Should it always reflect your intellect / creativity / interests / someone's love for you? (I have very dear siggys and avis made by my friends and they do mean a lot to me)
A part of me says that we will have a malevs female difference of opinion , and that's what I am interested in knowing.
THANKS in advance and please do vote 😳!!!

😆 😆 😆 I expected you to say that 😃 I feel smarter already .. 😳

I have a gut feeling that it is a girly thing!!, hence I made it a poll.

BTW, Those 15 page siggys irritate me too. I know I have a big one right now, but that's cos Rahul Roy needs some strong support being an old one hit wonder.

Agree with you Vineet. I also don't have siggy option on ...only once in a while when someone comments on siggy i have to turn it on to see whats in there 😆....

QT, I know why you made this topic now.😆

To be frank I don't like huge siggies. Because it makes threads longer. But for the first time I have two siggies 😛and I added it because I knew I would keep it only for a week till the show gets over. Usually I have a quote or nothing at all. I do like avatars because it doesn't bother me and doesn't take any space.

I agree with you Subha Di !!!

I attach lot of importance to my signatures.May be I'm foolish but I try to put my interest views also in it😆.I like my avtar somuch that I never changed it.

Earlier I used to change my signatures atleast once in a week but now that signature part is dedicated to my dear old friend Dr Abhijit Shukla Uncle😭.I will not put any signature not related to Dr Abhijit.This is my way of depicting my affection to my dear esteemed uncle!!! Nowadays I became like the person who knows only cow story,whatever the topic is I take it finally to Abhijit Shukla Uncle!!

Wishes,

Mythili

Avis and sigs can be appealing initially, but its the content of the post which matters.

  • I could be the ugliest woman to have walked on earth and yet does my avi make me that pretty girl in cyberspace?

It is a combo of avis and the way you post online. Yes, an avi is "love and first (blind)sight" 😉

  • In that case, do I live vicariously through her? ..

I think it happens if one spends too much time online. 😛

  • How about siggy? Should it always reflect your intellect / creativity / interests / someone's love for you? (I have very dear siggys and avis made by my friends and they do mean a lot to me)

For a person who is interested in anonymity, sigs and avis will never give a true depiction of his/her personality. Because, at the end of the day, he/she does not want to be known online or easily tracked. Being someone's fan helps one blend into the crowd.

On the other side, even a "fan-based" sig/avi expresses something - it can express someone's mood or a person embodying qualities they aspire towards or something they believe in.

A part of me says that we will have a malevs female difference of opinion , and that's what I am interested in knowing.
