Everyone its way.
When I choosed my avatar for this forum I placed myself in the third category because I wanted to show what I was modeling. Everyone can tell that my avatar doesn’t belong to me. It is the logo the Canadian National Railway put on their cabooses in the 40’s to mid 50’s. I took the photo of one of my cabooses and edited it on my computer. But still, it doen’t belong to me.
I was nevertheless surprised when I saw that, a few days ago, M_Robinson plagiatized my avatar by « Right click\copy » it.
Was I upset? the answer is YES.
It that dramatic? The answer is NOT AT ALL.
Is it important? NO, as I can change my avatar whenever I want. And that is what I will do to preserve my identity.
More hickeys Lion. They always seem to be smiling.[(-D]
I change my avatar all the time and I have many. This recent one is to celebrate the start of Hockey season. Feel free to use it as you wish. If you are a Montreal Canadians fan you will probably want to.[swg]
Why don’t you send the offending member a PM and express your feelings that way. Discuss it in private. I think that would have been a more tactful way of addressing the situation.
Did You check your credit card Bills,lately?? Now that would make me wonder…Is by chance Canada,still a Free country???Maybe He didn’t know,Ask Him…Also maybe He’s mad cause some college kid,stole his wife,Dustin Hoffman…[:D]
For mine, I took a picture on my layout and selected a small square from it. I call the figure “Rocky,” but he’s not me, he’s from Woodland Scenics and I never owned a black leather jacket when I was that age. I did, however, live outside the NY subway system that mine is loosely modeled after, and I still think of the subways as the signature element of my layout.
My avatar is mine. I built the scene, and took the photo.
