You are cool guy, Kozz, that's such sweet exercise.
Perhaps I should have you as my avatar.

In many ways it is too bad we do not know what many members look like and associate them with images of Paco, of some elaborate rosette or headstock.

[incidentally, I think I am due for an update on mine... "I was older than, and I am much younger than that now..."]

Thanks guys,

Did I miss you GuitarVlog? Isn't that the one on the righthandtop?

GJ, any update is welcome, what about a hawaien shirt, 5 buttons open and a guitar

And maybe our dancing-girls in their most beuatifull flamenco dress

Anyway,
maybe simon could create a query in his database and present that as a member-tab or something

You're tight Michel, the summer is over (for as far as it started) and get back to flamenco business....some new competitions for instance.

Thanks GJ,
but please don't use me as your avatar. It feels like earning a statue without having accomplished something

I agree that I like to see who's who....you always have an idea how somebody should look like with respect to answers/questions on the foro.

For example: If you read Doits comments, you can't believe he is such a sweet guy by looking at him (Ardilla video)

I like it. When I look at the avatars, I kind of associate a personality to it based on how I interpret posts. I hate it when people change theirs too often.

Of course there are people like me who don't post often so not too much is associated with the avatar.

Tom Nuñez sent me the Gerardo Avatar I use. For folks wanting more then one picture, you can put a different pic in your profile page then your avatar. I have a picture of me intead for the profile, but figure it would freak people out if I changed my avatar. Plus some one once said they forgot that I don't look like gerardo, which I think is funny.

RE: totally offtopic avatars (in reply to Elie)

There is a problem when you upload a new avatar and get an error message about permissions. I am working on it.
