Utterly inconsequential question -- for *anj* or anyone who cares.

[Doran]

Please help me "see" what is depicted in *anj*'s avatar. I swear it looks like boiled shrimp to me. Now, I have nothing against boiled shrimp. I just don't get it, that's all. As an avatar, that is. Tell me what I'm missing.

(Who is purely delighted to ask a question that should have a very simple answer :p )

I've been wondering ever since you brought it up in another post, but yeh it does look like some sorta seafood.

Pas moi! Unless you're reading my mind, because I admit I have thought about this more than once. But, I'm pretty darn sure I haven't actually posted those thoughts until now. Must be more than one of us who has crustacean curiousity. :D

Oh, my bad, LOL. I saw a thread before where *someone* asked what was in her avatar. :D
Glad it's being directly addressed though, cause I don't remember if she replied in that thread or not.

They look like crabs to me....all lined up.

[Plaid Dad]

I vote for crabs, too. (Now there's a sentence I didn't expect to write today! LOL!)

*Anj*! Enlighten us!

[Lisa at Home]

as to whether we could enlarge avatar photos. I posted said question on the help page. Alas, no one ever answered my question, and it sits there even now with a big fat zero in the place that should let me see the number of helpful responses I received.

I looks like a bunch of shrimp lined up to me. :D

Not even gonna read what others said til after I post. It looks like boiled shrimp to me too, only the color of lobsters!

Yikes, you go off to cook and eat dinner and look what happens! http://www.pic4ever.com/images/20.gif (http://www.welltrainedmind.com/forums/%5Bimg%5Dhttp://www.pic4ever.com/images/20.gif%5B/img%5D)
They're crabs!!
If I can figure out how to enlarge them, I will.

They're crabs, all lined up. And I'm in a crabby mood today, so they fit me perfectly!

[j.griff]

Aaaaah, the mystery revealed. Now we can all sleep better tonight, LOL :D

[lovemyboys]

Nope, that was me, but it was probably hard to tell whose post it was really under. Glad the mystery has been solved. I thought it looked like crabs or claws and wondered why.....it would be nice to enlarge the photos, there are a couple that I can't make out, probably a singer or actor....guess it's these old eyes. lol

Okay...


Why? Why crabs?

How appropriate that you should ask!
I originally had another picture, but you made a comment about it that made me think I should switch to something else. So I went looking through pictures that I'd saved and I found that one. I save pictures of things that I like and I like crabs, and besides that I was feeling a little cranky and pms-y that day, sooooooo.......

That is a cool idea. A moody avatar. I need one of those. Something that screams, "PMSing". Maybe a chocolate bar? Hmmm.....

[Doran]

Thank you for clearing that up for me, anj!

Here's something that might have appeal today. Hope you feel more "yourself" soon. :)

Maybe you should just let me pick your avatar for you next time. And anyway, where is your picture of yourself? I have a picture of myself up, where's yours?:)

Speaking of which, Doran, dear, I can't "see" yours, either.

Are those socks? Handknit socks? You'd rather be knitting? (I'd rather be knitting. But I think I'm reading to much into your avatar.)

Yes. Socks. On a clothesline. And, if they were handknit, it wasn't by me. I can only just barely knit, lout that I am. I got them from ChinaBERRY (hopefully not China, but it was too long ago for me to have been paying attention back then :rolleyes: ).

I'd rather be sitting in the sun, in a goofy pair of socks. There.

and it was on the school's dime, not ours, so it was even more delicious.

Anj's avatar makes me want more.

[mcconnellboys]

That is NOT the same picture, LOL, that's MY picture! Cohiba!
