    I think those of you who have your nice photo's posted it would be nice so we can see what you look like. However, since mine is generic, I have no reason to want to enlarge it.

    If I were more knowledgeable about how to use my digital camera and IF I could get a decent picture of myself, I would like to post it and then it would be nice if it were larger.

    However, due to the volume of people on this web, I doubt if they could do much more to expand it. Maybe they should do the ones with their actual photo and leave the others as they are.

    I wish the print were larger. If it were the same size as what we use on the screen to type our answers, that would be much better. The print that is posted is so small, I can barely read it. Oh well, guess we are always wanting something else

    God Bless and Have a great day! :)

    Yes, I wish I knew how to enlarge them so I could get a better look. I would like to be able to click on the avatar at their bio like a thumbnail and see a larger view. Sometimes the people are so small you can't see them, or some are really interesting artwork, etc.

    Uh, how is this a religion question?

    No.

    There used to be these freaks who had super-long avatars -- it took forever to scroll past them; they were a pain.

    Maybe a slightly bigger avatar would be OK, but who really cares about them?

    This is a question and answer site -- the content is the thing, not the do-dads and fru-frues.

    If you want to make a suggestion to staff, do so at the Forum; you might get a response from staff there. (Or do a search to see if others have made similar requests and gotten a response.)

    I agree. In order for a true representation of the population, Yahoo should have "full figured" avatars. I don't know if they have it as an option in the "Mens" section, but in the "Women's" section, Yahoo offers "plus sized" outfits. (They only offer about 10 different outfits but at least they are slightly more realistic looking and once placed on your avatar, makes it less slender)

    Yes I would really like it if they did. My avatar doesn't show up well at all because it's so small. Good question...thanks for asking it. God bless you!

    I've seen longer ones............but I don't know how to do that.

    There's this one dude who uses a Simpson character........and it's like, twice the size of a normal avatar

    I honestly could care less. I think they are a distraction to many, as it is.

    I try not even to look at them, but to take the q on face value.

    Source(s): I will admit curiosity as to what you look like, however.
