Snarky Brides

What do your avatars mean?

I changed mine from a henna painted bride, with a rock:



To a lotus for a matter of hours:



To an image of a part of my wedding outfit (called a dupatta), with a blue color filter - which replaces out the white light with blue, and keeps the red intact.




What does your avatar mean to you?  How often do you change it?

  • kp - I like all of yours.

    Mine is of me cheers-ing to whatever was happening at the dueling pianos bar we went to on a very rare occasion that we went out.

  • I'm glad you explained your avatar kp, I was confused. I like the lotus :)

    Mine is just my old sig so people know who I am. I've been fickle lately though (wedding pics still trickling in!) and want to change it.

  • Mine is me trying to recover from laughing at the wedding. My mom loves the picture because I rarely laugh, and she says it looks so natural and is refreshing.

    I was laughing because when I took the microphone, I spoke into it and sounded like a chipmunk. My dad had just bought this karaoke machine and the night before we were messing with the sounds, just goofing off. Apparently we forgot to change the settings, because my first few words sounded ridiculous. It kind of helped break the ice though.
  • Mine is my feet in the sand during my latest excursion to the Beach Cities, CA.

    Before that it was a photo of my "boyfriend" Joe Mauer.

    Before that - a picture of McLovin gettin' his dance on at a party.

    Before that one, I had a picture of a cat kinda freaking out that I thought was funny.  But most people thought it was weird.

  • Mine is my e-ring. I'm more of a siggy changer than an avatar changer.

  • Mine is a pic of me and my fiance at a sushi place we love to go eat at when we visit Houston!

  • I am mandated to have an avatar so I picked my shining smiling face. You are all oh so lucky.
  • Shaye I love your new sig.  Stu rocks.

    Plus you just reminded me - Ben's bach party weekend is already NEXT weekend in Vegas.  Holy crap on a cracker.

  • Mine is my e-ring in the rose holder FI gave me, Dec 19, 2009 = engagement.
  • Mine is a photo of one of my bridesmaids' bouquets.

  • My "original" one was a picture of the parrot on the game box for Munchkin Booty. It's this totally nerdy card game that I love to play with DH and our friends.

    I changed it to Hello Kitty a few months ago ... no profound reason, I just like Hello Kitty. I swear, I'm not 12-years-old, hahaha.

    Sometimes yours is a cake, or a shoe or a generic bride's face...  hmm....

    It's probably the asterisk in your name.
  • Mine is a rose from the bouquet we had in our suite at The Bellagio. Those roses were waiting for us when we arrived. I know some people think roses are cliche for weddings, but I love them and had plenty in white and peach around us.

    My sig pic is of course us at our Red Rock Canyon wedding. I think of it as the "fairytale" shot there on the walk back from the overlook right after our vows.

    I change my avatar as the mood strikes me, with no special rhyme or reason.

    Haha..it's a shoe right now...although it may have changed...
  • and yea I think it's the asterisk in my name. booerns
  • Mine is a sassy Cranberry for reasons that are probably obvious.  Cranberry has been an alter ego of mine since high school when I dyed my hair red (official color: cherry cola) and my friends called me Red or Cran.
  • Mine is an alligator, because I like alligators.

  • My avatar is the illustration I had done to use on our wedding invitations.  It's supposed to DH and I as if we were Mr. Darcy and Elizabeth Bennet.
  • Mine is FI and I with some of our cows in the background! It's one of my fave engagement pics!

  • Mine is my cat. I had Katie in my sig for a while and thought Demon would feel left out so I put her as my avatar. Now I'm just doing wedding pics for the siggy though.
  • Mine is pretty obvious.  It's me and FI. I chose it because it's my favorite picture of us, getting reading for New Year's 2010.  We spent the holidays in Indy and had a great time. 
  • Mine is a picture of me marrying a robot. Duh!
  • Mine is a chick with a thought bubble with a heart in it above her head. I figured it was appropriate for a wedding site, seeing as I'm thinking of love when I'm on here. That or Cew's forehead penis, although I do have a love for that as well.

    Before it was just a pic of my face.
