I was just going to ask about your avatar, it's super cute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-hb-members-by-name-or-by-avatar#post-592184 Mon, 25 Feb 2013 14:30:36 +0000 mrsjyw 592184@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs Hedgehog: oh good! ty! :)</p> <p>@belugabean: i still recognized you! :) and ur new avatar is adorable! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-hb-members-by-name-or-by-avatar#post-592183 Mon, 25 Feb 2013 14:30:00 +0000 tororojo 592183@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know both, for the most part, but distinctive, non-photo avatars are the easiest ones for me to remember. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-hb-members-by-name-or-by-avatar#post-592178 Mon, 25 Feb 2013 14:28:56 +0000 BelugaBean 592178@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I associate users mostly with their names on here. I don't know many avatars because they tend to change a lot although I do know a few (but really the ones I do know, I know by name too). I just changed my avatar too and I was wondering if it was confusing but went for it anyway! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-hb-members-by-name-or-by-avatar#post-592170 Mon, 25 Feb 2013 14:25:48 +0000 Alivoo01 592170@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I associate users more with their name than their avatar. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-hb-members-by-name-or-by-avatar#post-592160 Mon, 25 Feb 2013 14:22:00 +0000 LuLu Mom 592160@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I try to associate it with both so that way if it does change. I'm highly considering changing my name but am a little worried it will confuse people. I think I will keep my picture for awhile to adjust my new name. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-hb-members-by-name-or-by-avatar#post-592157 Mon, 25 Feb 2013 14:21:24 +0000 Mrs Hedgehog 592157@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both. Some names I know, others I have to use pictures. </p> <p>And FWIW, I still recognized you! I saw you post in another thread and it took me a minute. I knew you had changed your picture but once I placed you, all was good! lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-hb-members-by-name-or-by-avatar#post-592144 Mon, 25 Feb 2013 14:19:01 +0000 lavender 592144@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know a couple by usernames and a alot more by avatars. I just changed my username but kept the same avatar- it helped cut down on the confustion. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-hb-members-by-name-or-by-avatar#post-592135 Mon, 25 Feb 2013 14:16:41 +0000 lovehoneybee 592135@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know people mostly by their names, although there are some I associate with their avatars. I have a much harder time with someone changing their name and keeping their avatar than vice versa. I change mine every few months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-hb-members-by-name-or-by-avatar#post-591998 Mon, 25 Feb 2013 13:24:08 +0000 mrsjyw 591998@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I try not to change my avatar a lot because I don't want to confuse users.</p> <p>I just changed it though. LOL. It's my first with DS in it! :P </p>
