Yes usually.

It tells a lot about the person most of the time.

Just look at mine.
Is it odd that I can't decide between giving your a saucer of milk or calling child services?

Is that...the monopoly guy? Or the Penguin? I can't tell.
Its actually Dr. Pepper. Hahah

It takes a while to get out of this. I instantly didn't like Pimpeteer2 because of his avatar, and instantly thought Souplex was fucking awesome. I try not to do this because both things are toxic to the environment here.
those two are both cool in my book.
Thats kinda funky to know. Not that I'm holding it against you, its just an odd tid bit to know. What about it though, too much of a smug, fat cat kinda thing?

Not really. The avatar people use does determine what voice I use when I read it in my head.

Wait actually, Off topic, but if you were to judge me based on my Avatar what would you think O_O
Hmm... Your vigilant and you like to let people know.

I admit I have judged people on their avatar but more often than not I read the post before I judge. I mean I remember some of the "oldies" like John Galt who has simple and black and white pictures of classical looking people and for some reason I imagined him as a older wiser fellow.

OT: I wonder what people thing of me considering I do not post often.

Nope.

The 4 incorrect guesses are good reasons why one should not guess as to what the person's like based off of their Avatar.

Yes. It's sort of a first impression thing. I will form a further opinion based on the actual post but there are certainly some avatars that speak quite loudly on their own, whether or not that is the actual intention. An avatar based simply on the latest internet fad will definitely make me have a lesser opinion of the poster, as will an avatar that was obviously just selected from a prefab selection. It's not insurmountable but I'd be lying if I said it wasn't the case.

Well I judge people by how they type, and communicate.

Not looking good for you tired man :p

Also, you are semi correct. I dislike Naruto, but I also like awesome Combo's. And I like Cowboy Bebop, from which I can say is not that childish.

Hey you asked us to guess. Anyway, I can't believe I fell for your trap. Why you have that as your avatar, anyway? I curious now.

I wanted you all to guess, then fail miserably to prove a point :D

As Admiral ackbar said it best, IT'S A TRAP!

I have it as my Avatar because I have an attention span of a digested smartie. I saw a cool gif I made it Avatar, philosophical reasoning followed after my choice.

I Lol'd at your avatar. I hate Naruto as well. Bebop on the other hand was awesome when I used to watch it.

OT: I judge on the avatar when it actually gets my attention. But I do look at avatars, just not always judge the person.

I judge people by their avatars more in games than on forums. It's easier to judge people when they have an opinion stated straight out or something, but generally I just use it to recognize them.

Forums are usually more like a conversation, whereas when I 'm immersed in games, their avatar sort of becomes them in my mind, so it's harder to picture them as an actual person in front of a screen.

Worgen said:
Your avatar is probably my favorite. XD

And it probably affects my view of you more than it does with others, since "The Road to El Dorado" continues to be one of my favorite movies.

So I guess sometimes it depends on the situation.
thanks, I think the only thing that tops road to el dorado in the cartoon department for me is secret of nimh but Im not sure if its got anything that would make as good an avatar as this does

not usualy but there is one guy who has an anti-obama one and I judge him to be a jerk by that, since its suprisingly wordy for an avatar. If youve seen it then you know it.
So "Doesn't Like Obama = Jerk"? I don't think you're really judging it for its "wordiness".

I don't normally, although pentagrams make me cringe.
well to me his avatar just reeks of one of thoes tea party morons to me, so I tend to judge it as such

Sometimes, but only useually in the case if it's one of those generic ones that come with the site, i useually judge people based on how they post.

EDIT: Also, out of curiosity, what do you guys judge from mine?
