Default Dogs and Cats

well everytime i get on pokerstars and start playing i see more and more people with their pets pictures as their avatars, so what is the deal with that ?? i mean i sit down and i got 4 dogs 3 cats and a horse looking at me. i mean i know people love their pets but god u dont have to LOVE them. Guess i will just keep on blocking the pictures or maybe call animal control...

That's a funny post - even though I am one of the people with my dogs picture. I didn't have a picture of myself I wanted to put on there, nor did I want to put the sunset (you know ... the one that about half the people have) I'm usually at a table where at least 2 people have the same sunset image. Anyway, I saw everone else pets, so I thought I'd do the same. Here I was thinking how much everyone liked a picture of KiKi (my dog). It is kinda wierd though - playing cards with all those animals

Yea i am stuck with that retarded sunset image because my friend got on here and put it on there and pokerstars won't let me change it. So i guess im stuck looking like a cheeseball for the rest of my days on pokerstars.

Oh say it isn't so Teedough .... you're one of those with the sunset!
When I first signed up for Pokerstars, I thought, oh that's neat, I get to put a picture in my circle (avatar?) I immediatly went to my pictures and found the sunset - went as far as to circle the little image I wanted - and for some reason (thank goodness) I thought, well I only get to do this once, maybe I should wait and get a picture of my dog instaed. Boy did I make the right decision, even if you don't like the pets, I'm glad I don't have the sunset. lol. You are cracking me up. That's some friend you have making you a sunset. Enjoyed your post. thanks

If you dont want to keep that image then u can still change it as many times as you want.All you got to do is email support and tell them you want to change your pic and then they will let you. I have done this alot so you shouldnt have any problems.

You forgot babies. I've seen more babies on PokerStars than a materity ward in an Irish Catholic neighborhood. There's just something funny about knowing that you're taking away the money that should have gone into Junior's college fund.

oh yea baby pictures oh my god they are everywhere, but i didn't wanna comment on that too badly because thats a big jump from making fun of somebody's pets to making fun of their babies. Although the funniest thing i have seen on pokerstars was somebody's avatar which had a black background and simply read " place a picture of your ugly baby here."

I saw a pic once of girl on the beach walking away from the camera. She had on a thong and looked like she weigh about 70 lbs. It was almost stomach turning. The worst part the guy whose pic it was was bragging about his fine woman. That was one that I blocked just to keep playing.

I'm surpised that something like that would pass their screening process. It took me a week just to get a picture of a sword as my avatar. As for the crack about babies, it's not making of the babies themselves, just the adults who think that the whole world wants to see their SPAWN. CONCEAL THE FRUIT OF YOUR LOINS. WE WISH NOT TO SEE IT!
