From your pic, I’d say you look amazingly like Paul…! blue-meanie

Yeah, of course it’s allowed. A lot of people have posted pictures of themselves, including Joe.

That is me in that picture. I am a cat. In a suit. With delusions of presidential grandeur.

Now if you would all kindly excuse me, I gotta go cough up a hairball.

Meow.

There’s nothing stopping anybody from using a picture of themselves for their avatar!

Although the only member I can remember who ever did so was the long-ago Mr. Big. (At least, I assumed it was his picture.)

GEORGE: In fact, The Detroit Sound. JOHN: In fact, yes. GEORGE: In fact, yeah. Tamla-Motown artists are our favorites. The Miracles. JOHN: We like Marvin Gaye. GEORGE: The Impressions PAUL & GEORGE: Mary Wells. GEORGE: The Exciters. RINGO: Chuck Jackson. JOHN: To name but eighty.

I dimly remember a member who seemed to have a pic of himself, he hasn’t been around much lately, but his name was something with “Esteban” in it…?

I always imagine that you all look like your avatars. So Zig is John Lennon circa 1968,  Joe is George from A Hard Day’s Night and vonbontee has an Apple for a face! I’d love to know what everyone really looks like but that’s the good thing about forums like this (as opposed to something like the dreaded FB) we can all communicate without looks getting in the way. I’ve seen some horrible comments on the aforementioned Facebook where peoples looks get torn to shreds by total strangers! However, Beatles fans are, by nature, nicer and more sensitive souls who would never stoop so low. I may be generalsing somewhat!

^ Haha yeah me too. I was explaining what the Zigtionary is to my mom the other day (she’d seen it and said ‘what on earth is that!?&#39a-hard-days-night-george-10, and I was saying who ‘Zig’ was and thinking of him looking like John. That’s a bit weird when you think about it. In no other situation, that I can think of, would this happen :D

EDIT: George is being naughty and popping up in the middle of my post again. Sorry about that blue-meanie

Hate having my photo taken and it will never appear here. blue-meanieblue-meanie

I read a long time that you own your own image so no one can take it without your consent. No idea how that works with CCTV etc but even if not true its a great way of stopping people from taking my photo as no one ever challenges, they just put the camera down or go and annoy someone else.a-hard-days-night-paul-11

I hate having my photo taken too, I’m not very photogenic! I look fine in real life then i’ll see a picture of myself and think i need a face transplant! I espcially hate it when i’m having a somewhat boozy night out and the next day there are loads of unflattering drunken pictures of me on Facebook! I would come off it but my best friend is travelling for a year and it’s a great way to check she’s alive and well!

Looking like any of the Beatles can only be a good thing. Not for me of course as I’m a girl and that would be a bit weird paul-mccartney
