Does any one find that these?

The new box faced avatars are offensive, I feel like I am trying to communicate with someone in a box almost like they are hiding behind a mask. They could have at least made them different colors. We have enough reasons to stay hidden but at least our avatars are a way to show yourself as you are or as you wish you are. (mine is young, don't I just wish I could loose about twenty years). I know that this is rather a strange thing to be bothered by, but what the hey I've always been a bit on the strange side.

    They are ugly but probably quite appropriate for some. I'm sure there's people here hiding behind a mask.

    I don't find them offensive but I see where you're coming from. I think they are ugly myself.

    How? It would probably be a lot worse if people put their real pic. Especially the people in this section.

    Best of luck.

    Love, Noey.
