"sent mine in. it looks sort of like me. my mii looks more like me though."

You've discovered the main failing of the "avatars", they're not really avatars in the way you can make them represent your person, they're more similar to the retarded dolls made for little girls that you find online. You can dress em up with glittery crap, but underneath the layers of nauseating teen fashion, they all look the same.

Thanks for adding my picture, Joystiq :)

I think the whole avatar thing would be a lot better if you could change the color of any article of clothing. Would allow for a lot more customization.

I'm wearing a hat in my picture, but my avatar isn't wearing one because I didn't wanna put one on him. But I have an awesome shirt on in my picture, so I get awesome points for that.

Actually owning a t-shirt with a power symbol on it means I probably have one of the most accurate avatars.

In the gallery I am Andrew S.

Just look at all the internet tough guys in that gallery. Man, I'm gonna be quakin' in my sneakers for sure the next time one of these bad motherfuckers lays the digital smackdown on me in these Joystiq comments.

For the elusive, indiscriminate "Mass Burn" I'm awarding dark_inchworm The Justin T. McElroy Memorial Burn of the Day Award. Use it in good health.

Why is it that people are making their avatars a little "skinnier" than they are in real life?

As a chubby guy myself (I'm Tom B. in the gallery), I found that while the option I chose was slightly thinner than myself in real life, the next one up was fatter. Pretty easy decision from that point XD

LOL - Yeah I know - but some of these people have the "thin" avatars when they should probably have the fattest option!

I wish I sent in the picture of me in front of my awesome little Nintendo display cabinet that my uncle gave me as a teen rather than... the first thing I could find. Still... I'm glad to have been posted.

Justin - If you stopped posting you should put an update on the original post.

As for the avatars, I think I understand why they choose to include them in the update. They certainly make the friends list a bit more personal without removing all anonymity.

LOL @ Blizz419. You're just the type they are looking for. You're actually "irritated" that you cannot BUY virtual T-shirts for an avatar? Read what I just wrote again so it sinks in. Two things will determine who stays on my friends list and who goes. GOES: People with elf ears and those who purchase virtual clothing with REAL money
