here is a new idea:
what is the image that u had or still have of the PAM? has it proved to be right or still you dunno?

let me give u one example to start it: when I first saw the dear member Mono , I thought he was a lovely girl, with a fair hair and a white complexion,not very tall and not short! I dunno how this image came to my mind. maybe it was suggested by his avy and name. Howver, I then discovered that the pretty gal was not a gal ,but a very well liked guy! I did not think how this guy would appear like ,still :lol:

Hmm, I picture Miss Tenderness as a girl of medium height, with thick, brown, wavy hair, brown eyes, and tanned skin. Soft skinned and sweet like her personality!

Petrarch's Love
08-02-2006, 08:39 PM
Well, I've seen a lovely picture of Piper now, but before that I thought of her as very thin and tall with slender fingers (the better to pipe with I suppose), long mahogony coloured hair and always wearing long, slightly bohemian, old fashioned looking skirts (probably because of the "vintage" in her name).

RobinHood3000
08-02-2006, 09:17 PM
Hmm...I picture Petrarch's Love with waist-length brown hair, sitting on a wine cask, sipping from a glass filled through a dripping cork in the side and reading an old, leather-bound tome in the dark. Dunno why.

I picture Robin as a young guy with dark hair, tongue firmly-in-cheek, perenially in green tights (he would have to prove otherwise on the LitNet PhotoAlbum) and possibly talking to ducks in his spare time (even if they're only rubber ones) !! ;)

Pendragon
08-03-2006, 08:35 AM
Cruci is a young lady, well-read, educated, and with a great personality. Now if I find that this is a guy, I'm going to fell very foolish! http://www.industreal.spb.ru/smiles/big-grin.gif

Reading all the posts by Pendragon, the first image that I had of him was of a bubbly, young, happy-go-lucky guy. However, I was wrong in just one point... Pen is not young in his age but he sure is young & bubbly at heart. :nod:

miss tenderness
08-03-2006, 08:34 PM
well, I've always associated Shakira with Shakira the celebrity. Wonder why? :lol: but she turns to be a very pretty lady. is Shakira,the celbrity,pretty?

Well, that depends on what you consider pretty. She's a wee bit trashy and overprocessed, but then again, what pop singer now a days isn't? :rolleyes:

When I think of Miss Tenderness, I think of a very sweet girl, tenderhearted (I wonder why that is? ;) :lol: ) and thoughtfull. I too think of her as having brown hair but she has straight hair, not wavy in my mind and I think of her as being medium to short in height, she might even possibly have glasses.

miss tenderness
08-04-2006, 02:30 PM
wow,you I did not think that I'll find someone who easily brought what's in my mind into the shape of words(in Shakira's prettiness matter) . I share the same opinion as Idril's.

Idril,now this may surprise you but I've always associated you with a dear friend of mine,his name is Adrian. maybe coz both of you are jokers,full of youth,adventerous (your avy tells that)and both of u have the D letter in their names!!so I do not wonder why :lol: .

08-05-2006, 04:20 PM
When I first started posting here, I remember Miss tenderness's avy was a young girl sleeping, so that is how I always pictured her. Actualy, tenderness, I saw your pic in the photo album thread and you looked pretty much like I thought. Well, except for the sleeping part. :nod:

Petrarch's Love
08-05-2006, 08:51 PM
I think kathycf must have a quick smile, green eyes and shoulder length dark hair. She seems like someone who either dances or used to dance...I'm not sure why I think that though.

Don't know why I always think Petrarch's Love is a male, who is very sophisticated & has an "intelligent face". :D

kathycf
08-06-2006, 12:21 PM
I used to tend to picture Shakira as the singer/celebrity one. Now that I have seen our Shakira's picture in the photoalbum I know she is nicer and much more "real" looking than the singer.




I think kathycf must have a quick smile, green eyes and shoulder length dark hair. She seems like someone who either dances or used to dance...I'm not sure why I think that though.

Dark hazely greenish brown and I took ballet classes as a child for 7 years and tap for 2. I do have a nice smile, I think it is my best feature. Of course I am rather much larger now, so I don't do much dancing (in public) :p And yes, I do have longish dark hair. Are you a psychic, Laura? :brow:

RobinHood3000
08-06-2006, 12:31 PM
Kathy - curlers and bathrobe...I'm thinking light blue cotton? Standing in her front yard in the freezing cold, coffee mug in hand, watching the neighborhood children play in the snow with an affectionate smile on her face.

kathycf
08-06-2006, 12:38 PM
Robin is tall and medium build, with a bow in one hand and a book in the other. ;) early to mid 20's.

I tend to prefer pink terrycloth robes, but I like light blue as well. But curlers? No, no. My hair makes me look like a poodle as it is, it doesn't need too much more curling than nature provides. :p

Hey how did you know about the coffee mug? :p

Miss Tenderness, she seems like she is a young lady. She would be very sweet and attentive to people. Has dark hair - wavy maybe. Probably not too tall.

kathycf
08-06-2006, 04:07 PM
Grace is a sweet young woman, whom I see sitting curled up in a chair with a book.

Tenderness is also a dear. :)

I think Kathy is a Nomad from a spiral galaxy far far away. She has 5 eyes and a mouth, the eyes vary in colour, as does the skin around her eyes. This can all be seen in the Photo Album thread.

When I see the name RobinHood the only image I have in my mind is that of a thinly built young man of about 26 - 28 years of age, hair a mixture of golden & brown, a slight goatie & a very cute smile. Robin just let me know whether all this is similar to you in any way. :D

Pensive
08-07-2006, 09:21 AM
I picture Shakira as a bookworm, reading MidNight's Children and looking at the book as ready to kill Rushdie.

Madhuri
08-07-2006, 10:57 AM
The first person that caught my eye when I joined this forum was Pensive, coz of her avatar. The initial posts that I read of hers (in How are you feeling today) made me think that she is a sad person. I am sorry Pensive, I had a wrong impression. But I dont think that ways anymore. I find you charming and very understanding.

Robin just let me know whether all this is similar to you in any way. :DWell, I'm awfully cute :blush:, and I consider myself a man :cool:, but I'm leaving the rest ambiguous. ;) There's an ancient thread somewhere about my age, though, and it was a big much-ado back then. My, that was fun.

I see Madhuri as a big question mark, until she chooses an avatar ;). Perhaps we should have another avatar-recommendation thread?

Idril
08-07-2006, 08:39 PM
Robin makes me think of a vaguely GenX type, early to mid 20's, longer hair, casually dressed, plays video games, eats cereal for supper, that sort of thing.

Shakira
08-08-2006, 12:16 PM
Idril .... what can I say. Believe me the moment I see the name Idril the picture that comes to my mind is of an angelic girl with delicate features.

Petrarch's Love
08-08-2006, 07:19 PM
I think of Shakira as having long dark hair and very large dark eyes, and always looking carefully at everything in the world around her. I don't think of her with a large flashy type of smile, but a more small and gentle type of smile, the type that is worth looking for. For some reason I always picture her standing by water, maybe a river, either reading or lost in thought.


Don't know why I always think Petrarch's Love is a male, who is very sophisticated & has an "intelligent face".

:lol: Nope, I'm definately a woman. I don't know about the intelligent face. You'll have to look at the photo album and judge for yourself. :D

Late 20's, to be precised :(


Papaya is one of the most interesting members of this forum.

Idril
08-09-2006, 07:41 AM
I too, thought of Sub as a male and because of the Michael Stipe av, I tended to think of "him" as artistic, perhaps even with slight anarchist tendancies but I was quite sure "he" had great taste in music. ;)

Pensive
08-09-2006, 11:29 AM
When I think of Idril, a face of a happy woman of thirty-five comes into my mind who love to play Computer Games!

kathycf
08-09-2006, 11:42 AM
When I first came here a few short months ago, Pensive struck me as a friendly intelligent young woman. Now that I have been here a bit, Pensive strikes me as a friendly intelligent young woman. :D :nod:

Although for some reason, I see her sitting in a nest when she reads. ;)

Petrarch's Love
08-10-2006, 09:36 PM
So how do I picture the mysterious Robin of the foxy avatar? :D I bet he's about my brother's age, 20 (though I've heard allusions to this guess the age thread, I think it was a bit before I came here, either that or I don't remember, so this really is just a guess). I think he's about medium to tall height and for reasons I cannot explain I picture him with slightly Irish looks--not bright red hair but blondy brown with maybe a hint of red, and the sort of complexion that was prone to freckles as a kid. I bet he has a large and devastatingly charming smile too. :D Obviously his favorite activites are a mixture of computer games, archery, and saving damzels in distress and he likes to dress in green a lot.


Petra is definetly a female...a teenage perhaps


Wow, I haven't been mistaken for a teenager in a long time. :lol: 'Fraid not, unless they've started admitting fourteen year olds into doctoral programs. :D

~shudders~ I agree, no ringlets, please. And I thought Fauntleroy was the name of that annoying little dog on Foxtrot that keeps putting Peter in the hospital...

hehe I too think of Petra as a guy. :redface: An old guy with a long white beard - I think it's the screen name it's very close to "patriarch". I'll try to amend that image.

Sorry if that's all wrong, these are guesses after all!

Miss Darcy
08-12-2006, 06:39 AM
The Vintage Piper comes across to me as a dark-haired, dark-eyed....alluring, mysterious young woman....in her early twenties....locked up in the ruins of a library reading by candlelight.*

*With multicoloured balloons in her hand.

P.S. She is anti-feminist, too, unless my memory cheats me...finally another someone.

That's rather close, except for the age part....and I don't have very dark eyes...but I am against feminism for sure. You too then?

I picture Miss Darcy as rather petite, but elegant, with medium light hair, and a wide-eyed, cheerfully smiling face.

Vintage likes traditions, perhaps.

Madhuri
08-12-2006, 08:47 AM
he he he.........'delicate' I appear delicate but 'am not, mentally. I do have dark hair but my expression is more serious than smiling, but whenever I smile, all my big teeth are at display. :D :lol:

About Pen, I thought he wants to present himself as a dragon in true sense. But now I have figured out that he is gentle and very approachable.

miss tenderness
08-12-2006, 03:30 PM
Madhuri...when first madhuri joined us I thought she is a male, I was kinda sure about that, why? Her name suggests her being a male. I've heard that Madhuri is a wide spread name for men in Egypt, dunno if i did refer to you,dear Madhuri,as a him or he anywhere, wish not :D but knowing that she is a lady I'm doing my best now not to take my guessing as an AXIOM as to anybody's gender!

Madhuri
08-13-2006, 03:00 AM
Well not where I live. It is very much a girl's name meaning 'sweetness.' Guys are not sweet. Maybe in Egypt this name has a different meaning. :D

As for Miss T, I believe she is very soft and a glowing person.

thevintagepiper
08-13-2006, 07:17 AM
I picture Madhuri as of medium height, with dark, tan skin, and brown eyes. I imagine her to have long dark hair.

Pendragon
08-13-2006, 09:44 AM
What else would Piper be but a Tomboy, liking sports and flying, kind of like Amelia Earhart, yet I think she is also a pretty lass, one any young man would, and should, be proud to take to a dance! ;) :nod:

Idril
08-13-2006, 01:04 PM
I imagined a kindly older gentlemen, perhaps with a pipe or a tweed jacket and always with a smile and a twinkle in his eye.

Taliesin
08-13-2006, 01:45 PM
Hmmh.
As a young middle-aged elf woman, but not the sort who is silent and mysterious and probably bored all the time when there are no adventurers around, but the sort with her hands full all the time with raising children.

thevintagepiper
08-13-2006, 01:48 PM
(if I am wrong on the gender, please forgive)

I picture Taliesin as a man in his mid twenties, tall, with dark hair that isn't too short. His eyes are deep and thoughtful, and his expression is usually that of someone deep in thought.

Pensive
08-13-2006, 02:02 PM
Ahem, Taliesin in mid-twenties? *coughs*

When I think of thewintagepiper, image of Jamie Sullivan from A Walk To Remember comes into my mind. :D

thevintagepiper
08-14-2006, 08:25 AM
lol, that's not a first, actually.

I picture Pensive as not very tall, or very short, with thick dark brown or black hair, and fair skin. Her expression is thoughtful.

Miss tenderness is a gentle, graceful girl with smooth brown hair and fair skin. She is not very tall, and rather slender, and slightly shy.

Idril
09-09-2006, 07:41 PM
Piglet is a good Scandinavian, Christian girl from Minnesota so therefore, she has to be blonde with blue eyes. She wears no make-up, wears modest clothes, has a very sweet disposition and says, "uff da" a lot. ;)

Shalot
09-11-2006, 09:41 PM
When I first started coming to this forum I pictured Idril as this long-haired brunette that wears long dresses and skirts (the kind you buy at stores that also sell incense and crystals and books about Wicca), and turquoise/silver jewelry. I imagined her as being very intelligent, progressive, and forward-thinking. I guessed the age to be about late 20's through mid thirties. I guess I was pulling all this from the avatar and the barefoot prairie goddess

subterranean
09-11-2006, 09:43 PM
Idril has a beautiful long blond hair :D

I had this thought of dying my hair and be a blond girl, but after giving several considerations, I decided not to :)


EDIT...

O o..Shalot got Idril first :D

So, I have to edit my post! I don't really "know" shalot at the moment. But I picture him/her as a person with mysterious dark side... as dark as his/her avy.

miss tenderness
09-12-2006, 05:24 PM
I thought Sub a guy!!no definite pic was there in ma mind,but now I do have one:)perfect one from the album!

subterranean
09-12-2006, 07:30 PM
Suppose like many other members, I have figured that miss T is a female. I pictured her as a student in her teenage years. And her chosen forum name and her posts somehow made me think that she is indeed a very tender person in her daily life ;)

Idril
09-12-2006, 08:00 PM
Like most people, my first impression of Sub was that she was a male and I have no idea why, maybe it was the Michael Stipe avatar but that also told me that he/she had very good taste in music, was probably liberal in her politics and quite intelligent. Once I discovered she was a girl, a picture came into my head of someone with short, dark hair, average height, jeans and a t-shirt kind of gal. I figured she was probably a college student or just recently out of college and quite independent.

Pendragon
09-13-2006, 11:20 AM
My first impression of Idril was that of an Native American maiden, which I later found wasn't as far off as I thought, but I really need to read more Tolkien than just The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings Trilogy. I didn't know that Idril was an Elfish Princess, my bad. ;)

subterranean
09-13-2006, 08:37 PM
My first impression of pendy: wise, open, very matured, religious man.

I was (more or less) right! :D

Shalot
09-14-2006, 01:26 AM
Like someone else said, I thought sub was probably a guy with the Michael Stipe pic there, but I've discovered through reading the posts and looking at the photo album that she's a cute girl with dark hair and from the posts I've read it seems that she is very smart, sociable, and friendly.

Shakira
09-14-2006, 09:01 AM
After looking at Shalot's avy I think shalot is a girl who is crazy abotu Star Wars. She wears dark mascara & kohl & carries a sword to work or school. ;)

ShoutGrace
09-18-2006, 06:29 PM
Shakira unnerved me with every post for awhile, back when she had her "Mr. Bean with long blonde hair" avatar (and believe me, I am afraid to bring that topic up for fear she will resurrect the avy). I couldn't imagine her for else what she was: a nutty looking gamer with a great sense of humour and even greater character.

I hope you're taking care studying, Shakira! :wave: Miss seeing you as much as we used to. :)

miss tenderness
09-19-2006, 01:56 AM

Judging according to avy says it's more appropraiate to use SHE but I got feeling from somewhere that it's HE the correct word!affaiable person,no certain 1st impression except (wow ,she knows how to chose her avys)!

Well, the PAM's Grateful Dead av and sig line painted a pretty accurate picture, slightly hippyish and I consider that a very good thing, musical, a love of travelling, a kind nature and we know he's very sensible because he's promised never do anything weird with his dreads. ;)

Oh! And I almost forgot, he loves Neil Gaiman so I knew he had not only a good sense of humour but also a love of the fantastical.
