Week 5, Thing #10, cont. - Avatars

OK, here it is, my little avatar thing. Ain't she sweet?

Avatars are a little bit fun but kind of silly. I mean, they are so skinny for one, and I know we are trying to combat obesity in America and all that, and maybe your skinny little avatar will be some sort of inspiration to walk off those extra pounds. I don't know. I do know that I've dutifully created an avatar, and now that I've learned how to export her image, I'll introduce you to her. I'm calling her "Roman Woman" - she's skinny (well, yeah, what else is new?); she has Face 2 with dark brown eyes, short, messy hair, a purple chiton (that's an article of clothing, not a deformity or anything like that), and a tropical rainforest background. I might change that part of it. I didn't realize it was a rainforest. I thought it was just a deciduous forest. She's got those big eyes that remind me of that mediocre artist, Margaret Keane. (See also "Welcome to Keane Eyes Gallery.") Did you ever see Sleeper , the Woody Allen movie about the guy who gets frozen and then is defrosted way in the future? In one scene, the Diane Keaton character is looking at a painting of something, I don't know, a puppy dog or something, with those big eyes, and she exclaims in awe and appreciation that it is "Keane, really, really Keane...no, it's Cugat!" Both mediocrities. Anyway, these avatars all have big eyes like Keane paintings. Well, not quite as big as those, but big enough to remind me of Diane Keaton in that movie. Anyway, I'm sorry that you cannot view the avatar. If you figure out how to download the Yahoo avatar, let me know.
