an avatar, in eastern religions, is a re-incarnation.

in computer communities like christianforums,
people´s avatar is to some degree a re-incarnation
or reflection of who they are.

so if we look at a person´s cf character (upper left) and avatar (upper right)
it is already saying something about them...

Ah, so we can tell by your character that you have a tree stuck to your head. :D

I love cats - and that is why I chose my avatar.

Yep, avatars tell something about us - even it is just that we have a sense of humor.

But it has nothing to do with reincarnation here.

I would say I use my CFC to a degree to reflect my mood/where I am in life...or something that I am currently praying for, I use color schemes in particular, as every color has a representation behind it. :wave:

Gosh...I would like one but I have no clue how to create or get one.

I figure if all you ladies can make yourselves look so beautiful through your avatars then I guess I can make myself look super muscular and handsome...I guess ;) At least it would be fun to try.

Heather...I noticed that your Avatar changed again. At first I thought it was because of what I said about it wearing a "head covering" but I guess not, heh?

Wait........one minute we are talking about avatar`s the next characters, so which is it? I don`t have a character but my avatar is Morph, just a kids show from when I was younger, thats all........not prophetic of me.....not a re-incarnation, just something that I decided to use as my avatar.

Hmm...I just realized that I have been talking of CF characters and NOT avatars. What I said I said with reference to CF characters. Presumably I can create one since I am a CF member. I will have to look into that now I know what to look for :).
