Does anyone else judge someone based on avatar?

I said I guessed. I didn't know. Sorry. ^ *-* ^
Oh, it's not your fault!
It shows that a person can't be judged on a single avatar.
i dont care honestly. like it just tells me about their interests, nothing more. i dont assume gender from avatars either. its just a picture so who cares lol. if i judged people from their icons i would judge nick for having ugly birds as his icon and sig :^)
(and alise for having homestuck/MLP icons)

nope
as far as interests go, perhaps
i mostly use avatars to recognize people. im better at remembering their avatar than their username at first. so people who change all their stuff a lot confuse me hahah
but as someone else said, if someone uses one of the default icons i may think theyre new to the forums. thats about it. :V
edit: speaking of gendering by avatar, i think i subconsciously do that, but mostly do that in MMOs. for some reason i always assume a person is whatever gender their character is even though thats really dumb lmao

I kinda do? It depends on the avatar. I don't think much of anime avatars because I usually don't know what anime they're from.

Only instance I could think of where I might judge someone based on their signature or avatar is if it were something offense or if they were obviously trolling.

Not really, but I must look somewhat creepy to those who do, lol.

If people do judge me based on my avatar, then can they please at least imagine me as Skyward Sword Zelda... Please? ^^ Although some people say I do look like her anyway! 
I'm mostly like Shirohibiki though in that I just use an avatar to recognise someone. Like, I may not necessarily remember your username, but I almost certainly will remember your avatar, and I'll start to associate you with that. So it's not really judging at all, in which case...

Ehh... And I thought you're a fellow One Piece fan
YOU HEAVILY DISAPPOINTED ME.And yes, I do. Dunno why. Maybe it's instinct?
