Don't be so negative dear. But........alas.......the answer is most likely no. You have a couple others in your port that are much better for an avatar Which one(s) would you select?

Why? these reasons:
1. avatars with bright colors tend to be seen easier and more readily. So unless you have a killer B/W that has a good amount of contrast to get attention, stick with your bright colors
2. Your eyes really stand out and are very beautiful. Most likely a lot of this is because of the contrast with the color.
3. Use your strengths in your avi. For example, a flat chest girl with long legs is probably not going to have a cleavage shot for her avatar. And visa versa. You have a good chest. It is evident in this shot. Use it. Now I don't mean to start flashing your hooters to everyone who wants to see them (unless you want to, then I obviously will not stand in your way.....I don't wanna get hurt), but a couple good cleavage shots can go a long long way to drawing people into your port. Especially if it is the avatar (I'm sorry, guys are just like that).
And if you don't like that shot at all, then the one to the right of it is the 2nd choice. Not as good of colors, but slightly chesty.
Good luck and have lotsa fun shooting.......thanks for stopping by!!

I don't think that any of the other photos in your port would make a better avatar than what you have. So I guess I am trying to give you motivation to get out there and shoot some fantastic shots. I believe with your smile, beauty, confidence and legs, you can get dozens of amazing works in no time at all!! Thank you! I've only had one photoshoot so far. Actually my second last night. I'm excited to get more photos up!

This thread is whether you avatar is good enough and striking enough to make me want to see the rest of your portfolio. No matter what your medium or skill, if you have one that intrigues me, then I will look.
Based on all that I have said, I will say your current avatar is a no. Now, all is not lost. If you really value my opinion.........and keep in mind that it is JUST my opinion........then these are the ones that would probably make me want to see the rest of your port:

reds will always draw someone in more readily than any other color
I really like your work! It has expression and a lot lf spectacular raw talent. I only wish you lived closer as I would love to see you work in action.
One other small item. Some of your works should be listed as 18+. I just don't want you to get into trouble. Thanks so much for stopping by......enjoy your day!!

Thanks for the feedback and the support, Peach! I've taken your advice (for now ... I keep changing it, and of course adding new candidates!). Cheers, Zoo.

rawr! Even though I like the effort and the shot creativity, I would say no to your question. It lacks contrast and pop to be an effective avatar
