I've been thinking of changing my avatar, but wondering what my fellow posters think. Using an interesting site called "New Profile Pic", it takes any picture you have of a face and turns it into a profile picture or avatar. I've always kind of liked the one I use, but playing around I've come up with a few options and was hoping for some input...maybe I should have made this a poll. Anyway, here's four options that I came up with using the new website. As you can see, it distorts your face (usually in a positive way making you appear younger and better looking than you really are - at least in my case...LOL) and there are several options that can be used for creative coloring, backgrounds, wave effects, etc. So with no further adieu, what do you guys think?

Should I just stick with my old one or update my avatar for the new software coming? If anyone wants to try this method for an avatar, go to: https://newprofilepic.com/ (https://newprofilepic.com/) I don't know why it says, "come back a week later for new effects..." because when I've used it there are plenty of effects immediately. Maybe they mean they are adding new effects all the time. Anyway, it seems to work pretty good for avatars on message boards
Other ideas is you wanted to use a favorite Giant

Thanks for the input Tim - not sure if I will change it or not, but wondered what other's thought and hoping others might try the site for themselves if they'd like a likeness of themselves (or a favored Giant) as their avatar. The site doesn't give an option of a blue background, but I might be able to do it with a photo editor. I no longer have Photoshop on my PC, but there's some other software programs that aren't nearly as expensive that do a pretty good job
I always notice, and like, the guy smoking the pipe. I have always thought that that was very original. Bob

My girlfriend says the same thing
I LOVE it. I just lost 30 years
Looks good Lenn - I like the third one the best...although, the first one really captures your smile and happy demeanor.
BTW, thank you for your service friend. I wasn't aware you were a vet :ok:
Len: The bottom one looks just like you.... so maybe you'd better use one of the others. =)) =)) =)) =)) =)) =)) =)) Bob PS. Seriously, it's a very nice representation.

I liked the 3rd one also. Really makes me look 30 years younger.

A couple more. First one you can see the rain I was in as I kayaked with another couple down the Tioghnioga River. The second one with my girlfriend at a rock concert in Syracuse (pre-covid). The third, just my girlfriend and I in the kitchen. Yup, I'm bald...hence almost always wearing a hat

I never go to pick a pix, so, like the others, I think #1 is the best.

Aww shucks Lenn. My lady friend is cute, but I call her my little "PITA" (pain in...) because she is one! I've been called a lot of things in my life (can't even print them here...LOL), but never cute. In fact, when I was a little kid, the next door neighbor told me I was "the homeliest kid she ever saw" to which I replied "thank you". Then I asked my mother what "homely" meant...LOL

There's no software that's going to make me look any better! My wife has tried everything! =))
Bob - no comments from you!!! :P
Come on Tim, go for it.
If not, I think I have a pix of you, and you know the rest.
Ok, how's this?

yikes! :scared:
Some of those people look like their faces are melting :surprise:
Just jealous.
Thanks Tim
Spent the afternoon golfing with my grandson the other day. He took a selfie pic with me and I decided to try the image changer from newprofilepic.com (which has added new alternative views)
Anyway, the original and a new modification that improves my age by about 15 years

As I said in my original pic, it did take 15 years off my face.
Way to go. :ok: :ok: :ok: :ok:
