do people use an avatar instead of an actual picture because they are really uglier than homemade sin

Well I am not really sure why other people use their avatar. But I use mine only in answers. That is because I have not created a yahoo 360 profile. I have not had the time and have not been able to. Most people (at least the women) probably have an avatar because it is kind of time-killing to be dressing up the avatar. It can also be fun though. Everyone has a little child in them and why not bring it out with the avatar. About the guys I do not know. Hopefully a male answers your question. I want to know why also? Why men?

i got bored with my avatar. this isnt me lol but he's hott so im just showing someone i love. plus i dont have a picture of me on my computer. plus a lot of people dont have 360's which is the only way you can get a picture of y ourself on here. so theyd have to make that too and the avatar is just easier and more fun.

No I dont think so I think its because its really cool to create a avatar that resembles you.
