My avatar signifies my on-line brand and relates to the underlying concept on which that brand is being developed.

I've noted that some of you hubbers change your Avatar as often as I change my underwear....about once a week. Does the appeal of a given avatar affect your hits? Or is it your mood or personality of the moment? Afre you more apt to read a hub if the avatar is sexy as opposed to a...

Christoph is about to escape unscathed from his hub regarding chaging his perfectly good and proven succesful avatar because all of you people are being nice and honest about his current one being fine.And you're right, it is.However, he should be PUNISHED for questioning himself (which I have...
