Forgot to say, I personally love some of these avatars, but if I'm going to do business with someone, it's always nice to see what the person looks like....makes it a bit more personal.

Can something as simple as your Avatar hurt your business image on a forum?

And would you rather the "face to name" feel of a real headshot? or doesn't matter to you?
