    Thanks MedBuddha, so ... do you visit sites due to the avatar?

    That's how I feel, it just hasn't happened yet.. LOL

    Exactly.. plus I'm more of a clicker I suppose, too bad avatars could't be set up to directly link to the site they advertise.. I bet that would create alot more traffic.

    im not visit a site according to member's avatar or image. Normally i will click their url feed, in case the title is interesting for me.

    Ha, this is a very interesting topic to me, because I started a new social network based on just that -- the avatar. It's called Sivatar.

    http://www.sivatar.com

    Personally, I do click on avatars that are visually appealing to me.

    Well if you click it it just takes you to the person profile page, not what ever site is being advertised.. .

    No never. I usually don't even pay attention to them. More interested in what they have written.

    Well, I think I've decided that I am not going to be buying any avatar space any time soon.. lol

    Unless I come up with some ultra amazing avatar, with the URL in the image and I only get senior, High rep, members to display it.

    I thought it would be cool to bump this thread and get some more votes and opinions.

    So, what do you do when you see an avatar image?
