I reckon if you adopt an LP sleeve (from the review pages) you've much more chance of having a unique avatar. New members will almost always choose from the default ones |
Agree with that Easy Living, I did as you and use the same avatar in 5 forums, being unique in the five.

To quote Shakespeare; "Aye - there's the rub..." (from which famous play, which character, which act, scene, etc...).
...and I simply refuse to change my nickname to Richard Head, no matter how popular the suggestion...

Mine has been used several times by people who only made it 1 to 5 posts...and never returned again...
Maybe you noticed that this may be the way to keep your avatar unique...you only have to bump them off like I seem to do with people STEALING my avatar
Seriously:
In the vein of this "suggestion" I also want to add that it's only very confusing if longtime-members change their avatars...
Mostly I only look at the avatar...if danbo would change his, I would probably think he's new here...at least untill I look at the nick...

Is there a way that an avatar can only be used by one member.
The avatar becomes an identity for the member and gets a bit confusing when I'm writing a scathing post about Peter's lack of personality, only to find it's Progrocker (Whoever) who is on the recieving end of my rant.
Hmm?
