Steal an avatar weekend

[Scheherazade]

Yes, yes, folks!

We will be having one of those confusing weekends at the Forum.

If there is an avatar you think that is just for you, here is your chance to make it yours for two days (you might also put a little note that "You have stolen an avatar" in your title line) and please do not "steal" more than one.

(Please do not forget to return them to their owners at the end of the weekend).

If there is anyone who do not want their avatar to be taken, please let us know in this thread.

On that note, let the confusion begin!

[motherhubbard]

We can only take one? Is that one a day? I want to take several!

[DanielBenoit]

Greatest idea for a thread! *plotting who to steal from* http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-violent077.gif (http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys.php)

[Scheherazade]

We can only take one? Is that one a day? I want to take several!I was soooo close to steal yours, MotherH! :D

One for this weekend. If you are all good kids, maybe we can have another one of these weekends again soon. ;)

[toni]

Ohh this is a lot of fun.. :lol:

[DanielBenoit]

I stole YOUR avatar :lol:

Now, for two days, I can know what it's like to no longer live in jealousy. Camus is mine!

[Niamh]

yes!!! I missed the last one!

[motherhubbard]

I was Tim last time. I miss Tim.

[Virgil]

Oh I remember. Last time I was Logos. I'll have to do this tonight. :D

[Niamh]

I was soooo close to steal yours, MotherH! :D

One for this weekend. If you are all good kids, maybe we can have another one of these weekends again soon. ;)

I stole hers instead! :D

I was Tim last time. I miss Tim.

He was on a couple of days ago. :)

[motherhubbard]

Oh, I hate that I missed him. I got choked on some water in the shower the other day and I got afraid I was going to drown. Stuf like that always makes me think of him.

[DanielBenoit]

Wow, I'm actually proud of my thievery. How I wish I could keep it forever! :lol:

[Annamariah]

I missed the last one too, but now I want to participate. I'm just not sure whose avatar I'm going to steal!

[Janine]

Ohh this is a lot of fun.. :lol:

toni, go right ahead and steal my avy for the day; it's fine with me and very flattering, too. Now, let me think, who shall I steal from?

[toni]

That's a relief. I've always admired the sophisticated and feminine touch of your avatar, Janine. Thank you :)

[Janine]

That's a relief. I've always admired the sophisticated and feminine touch of your avatar, Janine. Thank you :)

Oh, thank you, toni,; it's part of the painting in my profile page...I just cropped this woman out. I was actually going to change my avy soon. I was getting a bit tired of it and thought something more seasonal might be good. I will probably keep it though until after the judging on the profile pages is over with. It goes with the page. Thanks for all your compliments on my page. I will get back to your messages soon. So glad you are safe and sound; do keep safe today and always, as well.

Now I don't know who to steal from. I just went through the whole member's list and like a lot of them. Should I go for humor or beauty? ....hahah.. I may have to do this later on. Hope the good ones are left. I have to go out now.

[Logos]

Oh I remember. Last time I was Logos. I'll have to do this tonight. :D LOL, want to be a girly with long blonde hair eh? well, be my guest, can't interfere with someone's pursuit of happiness :lol:

[papayahed]

Allllllll Riiiiiggghhhhtttttt I love Steal an Avatar weekend! I think last time I stole Virgie's or was it Mono's??

[papayahed]

Oh, I hate that I missed him. I got choked on some water in the shower the other day and I got afraid I was going to drown. Stuf like that always makes me think of him.

I know, right!!! HaHa I was always telling him he needs to write a book.

[motherhubbard]

maybe that's what he's doing as he floats around out there

[Michael T]

:brow: Hehehe! :brow:

[Niamh]

nice choice michael T!

[Scheherazade]

Oh, don't you love these weekends???

:banana:

[Helga]

I think I've found myself a nice one

[Niamh]

Oh, don't you love these weekends???

:banana:

Yes we do! :banana:

[Michael T]

nice choice michael T!

Thanks Niamh. She will be pleased to know it was stolen by a Manchester United fan! :lol:

That will teach her for getting on the wrong bus! ;)

[Virgil]

LOL, want to be a girly with long blonde hair eh? well, be my guest, can't interfere with someone's pursuit of happiness :lol:

Actaully I was telling people they were banned. :D Power went to my head. ;)

[*Classic*Charm*]

My black pony turned into a Faerie! Hmm...;)

[Janine]

Darn, I was going to steal Papaya's but how can I now; it's not there anymore??? Papaya...can you send it to me in a PM? Can I borrow it this weekend? I was feeling very Muppetish.

[papayahed]

I'm not sure how to send it but it is the first picture in my album on my profile page, you can save it from there.

[Maryd.]

Hi all, Virgil stole my avatar... Boooooo hoooooo..... weeeeeyyyyy.....:bawling::bawling::bawling::bawlin g::bawling::bawling::bawling::bawling::bawling::ba wling::bawling::bawling::bawling::bawling::bawling ::bawling::bawling::bawling::bawling::bawling::baw ling::bawling::bawling::bawling::bawling:

[Janine]

Ok thanks Claes Papayahed! Thanks...

:lol:I am taking this one step forward and I am going to steal a different avy each day of this weekend....:lol:

This is going to be fun!

Edit: Papaya, I went to your profile page, but you don't have any albums...at least, I can't see any...just friends and social groups. I even expanded to full size page view - don't see any albums. For now, see my temporaray avatar! :lol:

Not quite an avy, but someone's photo! He's going to kill me! :lol:

[papayahed]

hahahahahaha Nice one Janine.

My avatar is attached.

[BibliophileTRJ]

I was Tim last time. I miss Tim.

You were?!!? How flattering! Tim misses you, too.!



He was on a couple of days ago. :)

LOOK!! He's on again! He just can't stay away... He's feeling kinda lonely lately and this is a place where he always feels welcomed and loved and appreciated. Just great people here. (he wonders why he's talking about himself in the third person)

O.K. I'm not all that computer savvy.... How do I go about stealing someone's avatar?

Is it taboo to steal from someone who has already stolen from someone else?
How do I know who has who's thingymabob? :confused:

I had my eye on someone's but now they've already changed to someone else how do I get their original one?

Pick out the avatar, right click on it and do a "save as" then go to edit avatar and viola!

[Janine]

hahahahahaha Nice one Janine.

My avatar is attached.

Thanks, Virgil is laughing his head off in my profile page!

Your's, the real Papayahed's avy, will be for tomorrow; then I know who I will pick for Sunday's...this is going to be a fun weekend for sure!

This won't affect the best profile page contest will it? eeekkkk....

[Virgil]

Thanks, Virgil is laughing his head off in my profile page!

Tim, my friend! I'm kind of glad you feel lonely enough for me to get to see you. I know, I'm a crappy friend. I hope some kisses will make you forgive me:ladysman::ladysman:

Tim- You're my dad. He needs a boat.

[BibliophileTRJ]

Tim, my friend! I'm kind of glad you feel lonely enough for me to get to see you. I know, I'm a crappy friend. I hope some kisses will make you forgive me:ladysman::ladysman:

What a coincidence...... I'm getting kisses from motherhubbard; just as I choose to steal Poppy's avatar so that I might know what it's like to have a good woman at my side for once in my life!

(You are NOT a crappy friend!! I'm the crappy one for staying away so long.)

[Janine]

:lol::lol::lol:

Virgil, I might have started a whole new trend here or new game - 'steal a profile album photo to replace your avatar' OR maybe...'post a mug shot' weekend....:lol:

[BibliophileTRJ]

Tim- You're my dad. He needs a boat.

DAD!!!!

DANG!! I have been away too long!! I've gotten all these family relations mixed up... Motherhubbard.....Poppy..... I lost Granny somewhere in the mix.

Sorry Granny!

Tonya, what is your hubby's avatar? That's the one I really want to steal!

[Pensive]

I hate not being able to participate in this thingy in the fear of losing my blue bird forever! :(

[BibliophileTRJ]

I hate not being able to participate in this thingy in the fear of losing my blue bird forever! :(

I thought the same thing until I realized that if I can steal someone else's avatar and save it to my computer; I can steal and re-save my own first.

(I've already stolen your blue bird; so if you somehow lose it on your machine I can always send it back to you.... nothing on the internet is ever gone forever!!)

[Niamh]

You were?!!? How flattering! Tim misses you, too.!

We likey that you are back Tim! :D see! You are constantly missed mon ami!

[Lulim]

I stole the avatar from My name is red :)

[Madhuri]

I did not steal anything. Honestly. :p :D

[DanielBenoit]

Eeek, I'm already becoming confused.

TheFifthElement (who stole qimissung's avatar) left a comment on my blog, and I thought for sure that there had been an error in the system or something, because it said TheFifthElement but it surely had to have been qimussung because of the avatar :brickwall:lol:

Also, now whenever I see Virgil I always think it's Maryd and whenever I see Maryd I always think it's Virgil. :goof:

Same thing with Janine and toni (though it's a good thing that Janine changed her avatar, so that the two of them don't look like twins).

It's funny how we identify each other by our avatars, so that once an avatar is changed or switched, it's like a change in identity.

[Niamh]

DAD!!!!

DANG!! I have been away too long!! I've gotten all these family relations mixed up... Motherhubbard.....Poppy..... I lost Granny somewhere in the mix.

Sorry Granny!

Tonya, what is your hubby's avatar? That's the one I really want to steal!

Wait... Because you Have Poppys Avy, and i have MH's does that mean I get to call you Dad? :lol:

[motherhubbard]

DAD!!!!

Tonya, what is your hubby's avatar? That's the one I really want to steal!

I didn't see this. My husband is not on lit net. he does go to a logger site so he can have long talks about chainsaws and cutting wood. How can he possibly enjoy that the way I enjoy litnet?

[Janine]

:lol:Hahah...Daniel, now you will be even more confused; I am about to morph into another personality, by stealing Papayahed's muppet avatar. It is the truth, we all associate each other with that avy and when we switch we all get a sort of vertigo!:eek2: Like we are in a fun house with those rooms that slant...everything here seems so off kilter.:goof:

I did it but then realised that the responses to my first switch now will null and void..make no sense. Still it's fun to be a Muppet at long last. Hey, Papayahed, I love my muppet with that funny helmet! Thanks for letting me steal him for a day or so.

[Scheherazade]

I like confusion.

Here is a song for avatar-stealers:

Thanks! That was fun....:lol:

[Virgil]

Nice to see Janine no longer has my mug shot for an avy. ;)

[Buh4Bee]

I loved the mug shot, right out of the 80s.

I was confused by Honey, woof!

[Janine]

I loved the mug shot, right out of the 80s.

I was confused by Honey, woof!

I kind of warmed up to that mug shot, too....exactly...it was right out of the 80's...sort of 'vintage Virgil'....:lol: with that muzzy and hairdo!

I'm enjoying Papaya's crazy Muppet with the helmet for now. Who knows, maybe tomorrow the mug shot may reappear; brought back by popular demand....:nod::lol:

[DanielBenoit]

^Please do! Like I said, it's so ironic within the texture of your profile :lol:

[Janine]

^Please do! Like I said, it's so ironic within the texture of your profile :lol:

I know - it did work really well...especially the photo with 'Janine' written above it..."what kind of a girly man is that?" people were asking...lots of whispers from newbies, I would imagine.

[DanielBenoit]

I just loved the irony of the whole thing. With all of these elegant paintings everywhere, your subtitle being "Eternal Springtime", and then there is this mugshot of this hairy guy who looks like he has a prison record (no offence Virgil) :lol::lol::lol:

[Janine]

I know - it was a winner! I asked my friend if she liked my muzzy and she wanted to know about my back hair....:lol: We got a good laugh out of that one....I promise to bring back the youthful young man tomorrow....I am morphing all the time....

OMG...you never know who's going to show up here as my avy! :lol: :lol: :lol: this is getting downright spooky....:lol:

PS: hope you're not mad at me; seriously, if you mind let me know...

I am dying of laughter on this end, too....there are no available emoticons here on the forum to express how much I am laughing!!!

Oh Mary, hang in there.... I was that way one year, totally befuddled; but now I am having a ball.
"If you can't beat them, join them!" :lol:
If I were you, I would go and steal someone's avy for tomorrow.

Thanks Daniel. Tomorrow is Monday in Australia, have to work half day and keep a family member company for the other half. May not get on Litnet until late eve. So might miss out this year. Nevermind, there is always next year.:nod:

[DanielBenoit]

Well, I woke up this morning, and I well, was. . . .transformed. So I took a picture and put it as my avatar. :lol:

I hope that pretty miss you stole from has not keeled over in shock! :lol: OMG, are we theatrical or what? :goof:

[DanielBenoit]

I sent her a visitor message. Hopefully when she logs on, she takes it well.

[Janine]

Well at least you look pretty...:nod: Daniel's a pretty boy... hehehehe

Maryd, he's pretty in either gender! :lol:

Sorry you can't participate this year..would have been fun...still good to have you as an audience...we are very theatrical, aren't we? :lol: There is always next year for you...you can consider all year which one you wish to steal.

[Janine]

You never know what will happen from minute to minute either....

[DanielBenoit]

^Exactly. . .you never know. One second you can be one gender, then another. :goof:

Also, looking one direction and then one turns there head for a second and their avy does the same....very 'Lynch-like', if you ask me.....:eek2:

[DanielBenoit]

Wait a second. . .. how did it happen that my pict--. . . I mean, ahem, Janine's avatar, has his face facing the right, while on my profile it has it to the left? :confused:

A little trip to Photoshop and I got a bit carried away....:lol:

It looks better this direction...looks like you are looking at the page now....and musing on all this weird stuff happening...

[DanielBenoit]

Hahahahahah!!!

Quite representative of real life. :lol:

[Maximilianus]

Okay, I gained some forces and decided to go see the doctor for a plastic surgery of the radical type, and the doc asked what kind of face I wanted and then I said "I wanna look like my friend Anna", and the doctor said "but... you are a boy, why not a boy's face?" and then I said "I don't wanna lie to you doctor, so don't ask" :lol: :lol:

[DanielBenoit]

^I think the surgery was a sucsess :thumbs_up

You are such a pranster, Max!...I love Anna's avy. I am sure she will be flattered you stole it. It suits you well....ahem.*wondering about all this*...*scratching head*.....

Hey you guys, you know what would be truly weird? If tomorrow, when we all try to change back, the system won't allow us to and we have to go through life as the opposite gender, like I mean forever...now that would be reminescent of a strange dreamlike foreign film, one you would know well Daniel...like Bergman or Felini......:lol:

[Maximilianus]

Don't I look "Scandinavianly" cute? :lol:


I did not steal anything. Honestly. :p :D
Neither did I :p

Eeek, I'm already becoming confused.

It's funny how we identify each other by our avatars, so that once an avatar is changed or switched, it's like a change in identity.

Changed again. :D Think people will notice? :p

[Maryd.]

Yes, people have noticed.... I have my baby back... Yea!

[Buh4Bee]

Virgil, I noticed as soon as I got up from the night creeps. I was covered in spiders!! You old dog lover!

Although not many people may know my avatar, since I visit like 2 threads.

[Annamariah]

This is really confusing. Unfortunately I've been working for the whole weekend so I didn't have much time to participate in this madness for a long time...

Especially when you're just quicly browsing what's going on in which topic, and just look for the avatars to see who's talking. This kind of weekends may well change our thoughts about some people for good. "What do you mean you're not like that, I clearly remember you saying..." :lol:

[Buh4Bee]

totally funny and clever. It's kind of a compliment when someone steals your avatar. Kind of like when the boys pull the girls' pig tails. Except in my case, I think Virg was trying to take pity on me for the night fears and trying to make me laugh. With success.

Oh yeah, and it's great to see I've been so active around here all weekend even though I thought I'd been buried in an office for the past two days with no time for social activities :D

Good play on words...you are already sounding a bit Scandanavian!

Oh my gosh :D Several faces of mine looking back at me wherever I look at this forum :lol:

[Janine]

Annamariah, glad you are taking all this so well.:lol: I egged Max on to steal yours. I was wondering why he hadn't stollen one yet. He didn't know it was the entire weekend. I am feeling another 'change' coming on me now. I may be morphing back into Virgil's mug shot, before the day is through. So far, I have been Virgil in his 20's, then Papaya's Muppet, then Daniel, with alterations (normal and mirror image) It might be nearing the time to confuse you all again. I found most of the people were really confused with Toni stealing mine. They even thought I was from the Phillipines and had been helping out in the flood. Poor Gulliart was particularly confused when he left a message in my page.:lol:

I see now we have multiple Anna's. That is too cool. Anna, you picked a good one for your snatch. At least both of you are blonds.

Max, 'doppelganger' - you should not have said that....I may just work on that idea now.....getting spooky again.....we should call this weekend...masquarade party!

[BibliophileTRJ]

Have enjoyed being Poppy for a while but I feel the need to assume one more personality before the weekend is through......

[BibliophileTRJ]

I hate not being able to participate in this thingy in the fear of losing my blue bird forever! :(

Now I understand, Pensive!! It's a shame that you cant use an animated image anymore.... Protect your blue bird!!

Toni with your avatar IS really confusing, I have to admit it has been the most difficult for me to remember :D

Masquerade!

Hide your face so the world will never find you

Masquerade!
Look around, there's another mask behind you

Yeah, for some reason, no one can get that avatar associated with Toni. I even got confused myself and thought it was me writing at first. Hi Toni!:wave: Keep it as long as you like. :lol:

Ah from Phantom of the Opera! That's it! That is definitely it...we are enjoying being someone else!

This gives me a great idea! Why not have a 'masquerade party' for Halloween...we could either have different avy's or we could post photos within the thread.

Time for a change of disguise. You like my 'soxes'?

Note to self: When everybody changes back make sure to save a few avatars for next time. Isn't it funny how Scher always manages to change hers first so no one can steal it??????

Papayahed, Thanks, that is a very good suggestion; I have already done so and I will have a surprise for you soon...so check back in a minute...I am about to go through another metamorphasis, and it pertains to you :nod:....think you will get a good laugh out of it!....Gosh, this year has been some fun!

Hahah...Scher...your most 'Scheherazadish grin to date'? Now, was that before or after she read the stories to the blood thirsty Emperor?

I think I will be imprisoned for stealing so many avies this year.
< Now meet Fifi Blanche....she used to be Papayahed's avy and I always lusted after her; she is so chic, isn't she? Now I can realise my dream....all's fair on 'Avatar Stealing Weekend', right?

hahahahah Janine - Fifi Blanche looks good on you!!!:lol::lol:

Thanks, I feel very glamorous right now...I am especially fond of those pearls and the 50's style glasses....also....I am always wearing mine on my head like she does....this avy may just fit me better than my own. Glad, that back aways, I thought to save it in my files. Geez, I am having fun! :lol:

[Janine]

Where is everyone? I was going to morph again back into Virgil's mug shot, but now I have decided against it, since I have grown quite fond of my present "undercover pooch"...I may keep her for a little while; at least, this week anyway...she is so much fun to look at!

[Maximilianus]

I guess I'll just have to return to my own face sooner or later :lol:
Tell me when you want it back.... so I can run away, run away, run away ;) with it, to never give it back :lol:

Oh, oh! .... don't you have to be insane in order to join Lit Net? I joined because I was insane myself and I was looking for the right place for someone in my severe condition... thought it was a fundamental requisite.... :lol: :lol:

Hey Daniel, you seemed to have more fun than anyone during the - avatar steeling - weekend. It broke the monotony of just logging in to the same old... same old...

[Janine]

Hey Daniel, you seemed to have more fun than anyone during the - avatar steeling - weekend. It broke the monotony of just logging in to the same old... same old...

Yes, Daniel did get into it and so did Max; but then they are both pretty theatrical. I had a ball switching mine several times and also surprising Virgil with his mug shot from his album. I think it was a grand and funny weekend. Thats for all the laughs everyone! Papayahed generously said I could keep Fifi for as long as I wish. I may not be able to give her up for maybe this week. She is so cute and such a good little pooch. Have you seen Papaya's last avy - hysterical...another darling pup with an attitude!

[Annamariah]

It was a great weekend, or a Sunday evening in my case I guess... I just hope I'll be able to participate even more next time :)


Tell me when you want it back.... so I can run away, run away, run away ;) with it, to never give it back :lol:

Quit studying and translating and you'll have more time... :lol:


Running away with someone else's face, now that's something I've never heard before :lol: It's a good thing I've got so many faces :D
That's what happens when I begin talking. I can say things that were never heard before :lol:


Too bad I'm allergic to nuts :rolleyes:
I have been made out of anti-allergic ingredients :brow:


But should you be crazy enough to stalk me all the way to Finland I might invite you over for a cup of tea to give you enough strength to swim all the way back over the ocean :lol:

Actually last weekend I wasn't doing either, I was doing some real work :D

I've got tea, but I don't have enough space for a long-term-visitor. You'd have to find other lodgings or try camping on the field :D

If you're really going to swim here, don't wait for too long, because winter is on it's way and the Gulf of Finland will be frozen... :lol: (I bet the water is already rather chilling, the temperature already drops below zero at night and ruska is at its most beautiful - one can't deny it's been autumn for quite some time already).

Yup :) I think "ruska" comes from the word "ruskea" (brown), though of course it's more yellow, orange and red :p

There are lots of pines and fir trees here, so in the time of ruska there's always beautiful greens mixed with all the yellows, reds and oranges.
