Why Fanpop users do not use their real image in there Профиль picture? Any caution?

Personally, I don't mind uploading pics of me here but I don't really do it (unless someone asks me to) because I don't feel like it's that kind of website... It's not exactly the typical social network, it's not like facebook.

Fanpop is a website for Фаны to talk and share about what they're Фаны of. So users here will mostly Загрузить a picture of what they're Фаны of to make it their Профиль icon.

Facebook though, is еще about Ты and your Друзья and family so it's normal to post pictures of yourself there. Not many people will post a pic of their favourite band или actor on fb though.

But Ты can still do it. Some users have their picture as an Иконка and it still looks great though ;)

the Иконки aren't supposed to be their real pictures. they're just for fun.

I don't use mine because I'm extremely paranoid about having my image on the internet. My friend has pictures of me on her Facebook and another friend has some videos. I don't use my picture any where.

I've seen some people with real Иконки but that's strictly for facebook. On Fanpop it's audreyy <3

people can do whatever they want with your picture. that's why. but here's a picture of me. LOL i did this on paint :D

I don't care if I have my real picture on here.

My Иконка is me. ^.^

I don't even use my real picture on Facebook...I look horrible in pictures so that's my main reason...and I'm paranoid about anyone seeing my picture anywhere on the Internet...

i use my real фото in my profile(but one only)

I used to use my real picture as my icon, and I mean that was a год ago. Well, people can do what the fuck ever they want, and some people are just scared to post their picture because they think they might get stalked.

I don't use mine because I prefer to have anonymity about myself and I prefer fandom Иконки plus I am extremely paranoid about getting stalked. I may have a picture of myself in the future but as of now, no.

well I wouldn't want to hurt anyones eyes xP haha I guess it's just because it's еще fun to use something else as a profil picture and this isn't Facebook ^^

I don't really care, I just think that my Аниме Иконки are кулер, охладитель than any picture of me...

I don't want to put anything personal of mine on here-that includes photo's of myself.

Eh I just don't care ppl just do it to please other ppl cause they believe they look ugly but I bet they don't или because they wish they were someone else so they could make Друзья . That's y some girls have boy profiles and some boys have girl profiles on here. Me I have pics of myself and other stuff . So yh.

Honestly I can't figure out how 2 Загрузить pictures from my phone или iPod 2 the computer so I just get pictures off the Internet........

People rarely do it cuz most of them are freaking ugly.

I don't use pictures of myself for 2 reasons.
1. I have no pictures of me on the computer, so I don't see the point in uploading a picture of myself.
2. I have issues with being photographed. Ты could say that I'm extremely camera shy, and that I don't believe I'm "photo worthy".
Instead I use Иконки of characters from my fandoms или Иконки of Болталка things. It's a better alternative imo.
Some people don't use their pictures because they're paranoid about the people on the internet, and quite frankly I can't blame them for thinking that.

I never really used a pic of my self in any Профиль I've ever owned because I'm as many сказал(-а) they are Paranoid and I feel a bit un-comfertable of having my pic posted...

I use both real and fictional pictures of myself, but i use really partially because i'm vain.....some may say i'm very vain, but they just have no idea.^^

Because you're not here to meet people based on how they look. You're here to meet people based on their interests, and the best way to attract people with the same interests is to use what you're a Фан of in your icon, especially here in the Болталка spot. For example, if I see someone else with another Beatles icon, I know they're a big Фан and I want to meet them. I couldn't care less about how they look.

That's just how I see it.

I'm too paranoid. Besides I have an obsession with lots of characters (especially Bellatrix and Asami Sato) so I want them on my icon.

It's mostly because we wanna Показать our current obsessions.

because they don't want to Показать themselves.

I don't use my фото because I always look horrible, so my Профиль pic is of two of my idols :)

I never Загрузить фото of me on the internet because I don't know how they can be used and on Fanpop I sometimes talk about very personal issues of me and I wouldn't feel free to do it if I knew that people who know me could see my photo.That's also why I don't give my surname или the place I live.

Well, I usually use an image as an Иконка to represent something I like. For example, lets say that my Иконка is of Voltron. That means that I like Voltron. Simple as that.

Well this isnt Facebook were talking about. And even if i was on Facebook i would still use the Beatles to Показать off my, um... Beatl-ey-ness? I guess.

i don't know i just like еще puting radom pictures
