Uhm, who picks these avatars?

First of all, when and why did all the avatars change?

Second of all, how ironic is it that the avatar they "randomly" chose for me has a tan girl and white guy?

ETA: Just to clarify, I'm not offended, angry or anything by this... I just found it pretty funny that this is my new avatar. I know I can change it.

It changes every post. They are weird. Mine never changed because they just switched over to whatever avatar system they use on the new knot pages- and since I mod my board there, and a custom avatar is required to be a mod, mine just changed over to the one it was over there.

I was wondering about these. I had my crazy cat lady avatar before...why did they change avatars for people who already had uploaded a pic?

michelle142 · February 2011

why did they change them in the first place?

IMO they should just nix the avatars all together. They're pointless anyway.

They changed earlier this week. I just changed it and uploaded a pic from my computer.

I got your same avatar, but Anwar isn't white. haha.

I kind of like these. I was bored one day and looked at my old knot profile, so thats when I changed mine to the champagne glasses, but now there's a bunch! I like the yoga one alot. I'm glad they updated the profile pages to be more like the knot's. Even though no one really does that anymore, I think I'm going to work on mine later when I get home to where my pictures are.

It happened on the bump too. I post a lot on the TTC after a loss board, and needless to say it's not well accepted that everyone's avatars changed to be pregnant women.

I rebelled and changed mine back, which messed up my siggy, but I don't care. The fact that the bump had me masquerading as a pregnant lady made me cry.

Ugh. Sorry, that is really disheartening. I think that is something totally worth passing on to the Nest ladies.

i agree with Smo. did anyone pass that complaint along to the Nest Gods? if not, or even if others did, i think you should make them aware of it.

Yes, they know. Unfortunately it isn't catching much attention.

Which ticks me off even more. It's just another giant punch in the ovaries for a pretty large (and heartbroken) group of people.

Yeah. Between the mc/pl people, the IF and TTTC people and the people who are BOTB but not KU, I think at least 1/3 to 1/2 of the audience is offended.

That makes my heart break for you, Meghan. I'm sorry.
