People are too strange... should I change my avatar?
My avatar photo is of my baby's sandy little feet at the beach. I thought it was an artistic picture. But now I have received 2 different messages from umm foot fetish people? Requesting more baby foot photos. Weird, right?
BQ: Why did you choose the avatar photo you have?

Sorry, I had to laugh at this. I think it's a cute picture, just keep it and block the trolls.
BQ: Because my baby is adorable ;)

If they're requesting for baby foot photos, that is weird. I've never heard of anyone like that. I have a foot fetish, but it's only for female adult feet.

I'm going to be the nail that sticks out here and say, yes -- I would change my avatar. I've actually considered using one of the sweet pictures of my kids as my avatar and have resisted the urge because I can't stand the idea of some creep getting off while looking at my children (or any part of their body). It just freaks me out.
My avatar a Dickens character that especially amuses me. He's grumpy. I'm grumpy. Seemed a good fit.

foot fetish? Interesting.... If you like the picture don't worry about what others think. Apparently there are people with fetishes for everything.
BQ: It looks like me.

I had a new computer with only sample pictures in my photo folder and out of the few choices, went with a Koala bear. I have yet to come up with anything better to change it to.

Ignore the weird emails or block them. I chose my photo because I wanted everyone to see who I am. Kind of an I am done being afraid statement in a way. It has been good for me.

I think its cute and creative :) And those people are definitely WEIRD!
BQ: I just use the default picture because I'm too lazy to change it and I don't want people looking at my ugly face and I have no cute kids to show :)

There's something so cute about baby's feet. I love them too, they're cute, and tiny and pink and chubby! Come on don't you think so? But obviously I don't go around telling that to strangers.

you like the pic that's all that matters but if it really bothers you you can prevent people from sending you emails. some people are seriously effed up! I think its a cute pic too but then again I've had emails telling me my kids look like retarded cows, seriously! people must have real issues to go out of their way to mess with a person like that.
BQ: since I have 2 kids now I like to get shots where the both of them look nice, this pic makes them look like loving siblings.

Very strange...I chose mine because it's a pic of me from when I was about 7 years old...a quarter of a century ago....my that sounds soooo long ago.
