A general topic yes, but id like to know why you chose your profile picture and if there is any profile pictures you'd like to have in the future. I chose mine since there is a lack of aldmeri females and I wanted a change in scenery so I chose the dunmeri female. I hope zos considers adding house profile pictures for the dunmer

Edit: switched back to ayreen's photo, I prefer an aldmeri photo. If zos even takes us to mainland summerset I hope there is altmers to choose from

    Nope, anyone with a custom profile picture ended up with a red X and most of us eventually replaced that with one of the predefined images.

    I just got this shiny crown from Creeper the scamp merchant. He had a nice shop in a sewer. I think it was a thieves den or something.
    He swears the crown was his grandfathers who passed away from a bad case of hemorrhoids and wasn't stolen.
    Sounds legit so I bought it.

    Something like that. :sweat_smile:
    I shouldn't complain (even if joking) as it's a big privilege to have it.

    As for a serious answer. I used to use the Azura emblem one because I really like Azura as a Daedric prince and have always loved Azura's Star as an item.
    I was before the ambassador offer planning to use a good Dunmer one if Morrowind added some to reflect my love for Dunmer.

    I have to say I really do love the new selections ZOS added, some of these new ones I've seen from the Morrowind pack are absolutely amazing, brightened up the forums a lot. I just have to get used to all the people who've changed theirs.

    I like the khajiit and always play one in TES games.

    If I could have a custom one it'd be either a screenshot of one of my characters (likely just a head shot given the size) or something really random like the Flying Hamster of Doom.

    All of the entrances and exits to my local stores, be it grocery or apparel, are backwards. I find it very odd and illogical to confuse the American people this way. For example, we drive on the right side of the road, not the wrong side. I'm not exactly sure when stores decided to make this switch or why as it feels rather counterproductive to getting customers inside the store.

    When entering one of these backwards entrances, people tend to become bewildered as to why others are leaving through their entrance area and shopping carts become entangled, kids trampled, apologies aside. Most of these doorways are automatic and tend to swing into oncoming pedestrians, so they pose a danger to blind, hard of sight or very quick walking people in general. Hmm, our bike lanes in N.America are also on the right side moving forward, rather than wrong side, moving into the direction of traffic. Ah well.

    tldr; The avatar selection was limited so I chose the brightest image at first glance.

    I just wanted to look like a beaten up old dragon because I've been lurking on these forums for a long time. got my forum account banned then un-banned, I've watched as things changed from better to worse in terms of content and mechanics. I've watched as people liked a feature a year but then grew to hate it afterwords. I've watched as classes go from the most used to the most unused, i've saw as people left then return after a year or two. and I personally was dealing with my own offline troubles over the years too. All of this put together made me feel like an old beaten wild animal. Why a dragon? meh, I like dragons.

    I wanted something that not a lot of people were using. And I adore the fennec fox pet, it is my main's pet forever now.

    Cute though I find them I don't particularly identify with foxes, fennec or otherwise, but no other avatar in the available set reflected anything of my Redguard DK.

    If I could custom upload I'd probably use one of the commissioned art pieces of my various characters. I have a fab painting of Donari I use on Enjin. Though it might confuse readers since I'm a woman but Donari the character is very much a guy :D Also he doesn't look very ESO.

    I had the Dark Seducer picture since forever, because it was the closest thing the forums had to a female Dunmer. Now that we actual have female Dunmer avatars--multiple, even!--I switched. And I had to go with Naryu because, well, I love me a rocking assassin gal. :)

    Living vicariously through my characters.

    My Girls:
    "If you were trapped in your house for, say, a year, how would you pass the time?"

    Nephikah the Houseless, dunmer assassin: "I suppose I could use the break. I have a lot of business holdings now that need management."
    Swum-Many-Waters, elderly argonian healer: "I think that I would enjoy writing a memoir."
    Silh'ki, khajiit warrior-chef: "Would this one be able to go outside, to the nearby river? It's hard to fish without water!"
    Peregrine Huntress, bosmer hunter: "Who is forcing me to stay inside, and where can I find them?"
    Lorenyawe, altmer mechanist: "And why would I want to go outside in the first place? Too much to be done in the workshop."
    Lorelai Magpie, breton master thief: "I'd go nuts. Lucky for me, I have a little experience sneaking out!"
    Rasheda the Burning Heart, redguard knight: "I would continue my training to keep my skills sharp."
    Hex-Eye Azabi, khajiit daedric priestess: "I suppose it would be lucky, then, that I built a shrine to Mephala in my backyard."
    Yngva Stormhammer, nord bandit (reformed...ish): "I hate being inside even when I'm not forced to be. GET. ME. OUT."
    Madam Argentia, vampire dunmer aristocrat: "I suppose it would be more of the same. I have a rather... contentious relationship with the sun."
    Mazie gra-Bolga, orc scout: "Uh... I'd have to house train my bear..."
    Felicia the Wanderer, imperial witch-for-hire: "What Lorelai said."
    Calico Jaka-dra, retired khajiit pirate: "This one would like a rest from her grand adventures. Her jewel shop runs out of stock!"
    Shimmerbeam, blind altmer psijic: "Provided that I am confined to Artaeum, I do not think I will want for things to occupy my time."
    Shauna Blackfire, redguard necromancer: "Sounds like paradise. I hate people."
    Kirniel the Undying, cursed bosmer warrior: "I would feel useless, not being able to fight."
    Echoes-from-Dragons, argonian who thinks she's a dragon: "All the better to count my hoard!"

    The Redguard in my profile picture looks a lot like my secondary main when he's hiding his vampirism, so that's why I picked it :). It's as close as I'm going to get to having one of my characters as my profile picture I think!
