Avatars - you could write an entire post about them

I joined a website forum recently called Rachel's Forum which is, for me a pretty
fun site, but considering that it is a site for captions about transforming and transitioning
to being a female, it can get frustrating, because so much of it is "guy porn" really -
where's the "girl porn" - the excitement of suddenly being kissed (when you want to be),
things about buying shoes and purses, dressing up for a night out, the dear diary tonight..,
evaluating the guy you are dating (girls all do it), long walks on the beach (I mean for
Heavens sake, what's sexier than a long walk on the beach - you know where that is going
 to lead), etc, etc.  Anyways so I've been trying to fit in over there, and suprise, suprise,
I don't feel like I fit in - who'd a thunk it.  Being in a bit of a bitchy mood about that I went
and changed my avatar from the flirting girl drawing (I didn't do that drawing -I found it on
the internet) to a Cow in the Box (it is one of the exercises I've completed in the
Steve Caplin -How to Cheat in Photoshop) -  so all the other guys have avatar's of this
large chested half naked lady or that large chested half naked lady, and I am portraying
myself as a cow in box, which is funny actually, if you're in a bitchy mood.  I'll go and
change it in a couple days, because and some point it won't be funny, it will just be weird.
That's such a fine line.

Anyways, I'm going to change it to the third drawing it's just a hand sketch now but I'm
going to colorize it in Photoshop and it should look really nice -so this is the before,
and hopefully tommorrow I'll post the after.  Then finally a really silly "motivational
poster" - the starting point was a Steve Caplin -Art & Design exercise, but obviously
I altered the exercise to suit my own sense of humor (with "friends" like these....)
it is obviously meant to be humorous, no one in there right mind would take it
seriously - but a genuine observation: in real life if you walk into an office and the
guy has a motivational poster on his wall, you're dealing with a real phony.

I really like the hand sketch as a starting point, just that expression of joy as she
leads the guy -it's like "holding hands can be sexy, really" so it's interesting
visually, but it makes a subtle point too. It will make a nice avatar when I'm done
