Yahoo Avatars are all the same, yet...?

I think it's cool, but I doesn't really capture who we really are.  This avatar I have is the closest I was able to get.  And yet, I don't look like it at all.  \n\nBut it's fun to play arond with, at the least.

They are neither. There are literally tens of thousands of different combinations of features, skin, hair, clothes, backgrounds, etc.. to choose from. If someone has a stereotypical or superficial avatar it's because they made it that way, not Yahoo!.

Well, my avatar looks as much like me as I can get it.  My natural shade of red is lighter and my eyes are Hazel though. \n\n OH...and my cat (which you can't see) is not properly represented either, because Yahoo is racist against black cats I think. LOL  NO...bad joke...but there aren't black cats available.  I'll have to write an e-mail to yahoo now...see what you started?

Avotar options that look like me are not available.  I tried to get as close as i can, but many things are still incorrect.  Of course some folks could be masquerading.  it might be a fun way to try out being a different race or gender.  Hard to do in real life.  Easy to do in avatar.

There are programs that allow you to save anything you find online, or you can use Alt + Print Screen. Another thing to do is to just go to Yahoo! Avatars and make it yourself. There are only a limited number of avatars that can be made so it shouldn't be too hard.

I'm not sure bout that but it would really be annoying. Try resetting your avatar.\n\nhttp://avatars.yahoo.com/\n\nGood luck princess.

How do you like this avatar? I've got 25 other accounts to play with so, you never know who the real me is.

Type "Avatar" in the Yahoo Search box, or Search Web and click on it.  It should (will, I hope) give you several (information) listings for Avatar there.  \nI had a difficult time when I first did it and don't remember the exact steps I took, but it can be done.\nSorry I can't be more explicit,...good luck!\n \nWhen I tried Yahoo HELP questions search I didn't get ANY help.  It doesn't seem to be a very good system, it didn't\nanswer my question.

Avatars are easier, anyone can do it, you don't have to upload anything or have a 360 page if you don't want one. It kinda looks like me, I think in this forum, what we say means more than how we look.

You can use your own avatars if you use yahoo 360

Your Avatar name matches you to perfection.\n\nDon't ever change it. \n\nKeep it always!

I can't say for sure (I can't tell you two people who have the exact same avatar), but my guess is yes.\n\nThere are a relatively limited number of options you can choose for your avatar, so the chance that two people (of hundreds of thousands? millions?) pick the exact same choices, although small, is large enough to be expected in such a large sample.\n\nI don't think there is any way to know for sure unless you ask Yahoo! themselves. They might be able to search the database for this information.
