I receive these messages from my cell phone sharing a memory from years past.
Today it shared a memory from 5 years ago. I thought the photo looked familiar. It was the photo I used to make my avatar for OGR. I guess I have changed some in 5 years. Here is me today.
How about you? Have you changed much? I know some of you have the same avatar when I joined OGR close to 15 years ago.

I look nothing like the "RT" that appears in my avatar...

As far as I know I still closely resemble my avatar.
I guess I have changed some in 5 years.
Yup. Different shirt.
just uploaded it so yes i sure do
Haven't changed a bit - skinny face, big ears and a flattop.
Simalar, At least close enough not to change it.
Yep just a little more folical challenged
Do I still look like my Avatar?
No.

Hey! Twin sons of different mothers!
A tad greyer, certes...

I wear captain's bars rather than corporal stripes these days.
Yup. Exactly the same.
Some guy's avatar have a view so very far away, there is no way to tell WHAT they look like!

Even worse. Some guys don't even have an avatar.
I never looked better, never loved better, never lied better.
Yes, yes I do!
Here's a blow-up of my avatar so you can see for yourself!

Figured it was time to admit to reality and just updated my photo!!!

Pretty much, I don't think I've changed much in the few months since I posted the recent one. 
I'm just a few months older and a few hairs more bald. 
I think so.
No, I no longer have access to the el car!
Yes....
My beard now has more salt than pepper in it, and I wear a tie a lot less often.
I haven't changed much since I updated by avatar two years ago, aside from my 'Covid-15' belly! 
Jim
I think my wife looks younger... 
It has been about 10 years since the moderators deleted my avatar. Someone disliked something I said and complained to the moderators that I was too far away in the avatar and then they unceremoniously deleted it. I emailed them and I told them that people have recognized at York me from that avatar but they just said I was too far away. Now I understand the TOS but in my avatar I was the same distance as Don Winslow and PRRMP54 and I see others with similar avatars all the time on here. It would seem that things are a little more relaxed these days so maybe I will upload a new one. And yes, I will look like me.
Hey Ron PS - you haven’t changed much 👍🏼
........clearly better looking with my mask on.....but, not much change in the 3 years since the Avitar picture was taken..........
.........except, more gray, I think.......

...best picture I've taken in 10 years! 
This was taken last week on my 62nd birthday. I've lost a little weight since the Avatar.
I don't get the Avatar rules here. We are allowed to come up with whimsical names but not whimsical Avatars. But with that said this is not my forum, I don't make the rules and that's ok.
As for my Avatar, who wants to see my ugly face??? Much rather have something funny for my Avatar.
Close. A few more gray and I grew a beard.
Yup! I'm the one on the left...
John
Yes as it was taken 3 years ago
