Comment on You Asked For It - What About My Avatar by Evelyn Lim

My prim and proper photo was taken to fulfill certain official guidelines for making an international passport. I’m actually quite camera shy but have been thinking that I ought to take a picture of me looking less formal!!

Yes, I think it would be strange if I am 65 and still having the same photo. Maybe by then, I’ll switch to a graphical avatar. Or maybe I’d just use a photo reflecting my real age as it can be cool to be an old granny blogger and internet marketer?!!

I think it all depends on how long you’ve had the avatar representing your online presence.

If you’ve had it for years, then yes, I think you should make note of it. I wouldn’t make a whole post about it, but that’s just me.

If you change your avatars frequently, then I wouldn’t even bother mentioning it, unless it’s something noteworthy like a vacation photo in Japan or something.

Comment on Be Careful What You Wish For by Debbie Yost

I don’t really want to be a problogger anymore. It takes too much time. I still have the passion and some days I really wish I had a bigger audience to hear me, but I can’t keep up with it. I don’t think I really understood the time blogging took when I got started. There are so many people out there commenting and hoping you will reciprocate. I think I envisioned a bunch of readers with no blogs. They’d come read my wisdom and leave me lovely comments of my brilliance and that would be that. The advertisers would knock on my door asking to advertise on my blog and throw money at me (ha ha ha ha ha!) But, it’s a little late in the game for all that. It’s kind of like selling Pampered Chef. Sure, you can do it and make a little money at it, but there are so many women competing for the same business.

I don’t know how much time you spend with blogging, but I’ve been impressed at how much you’ve grown in the time I’ve known you. Your comments are amazing and you have a great community. I’ll be interested to hear what you decide and either way, I’ll still come by and visit!

Thats an interesting question. I rarely take photos because I am camera shy despite having modeled and having many people tell me I’m photogenic. My latest photo/Avatar/Gravatar is only a couple months old (taken in the evening right after work) but I know eventually I will need to change it.

Jealousy bad - spying good…just look deeper into WHY/HOW they are doing what they’re doing.
