There's a chunk of text from a William gibson book. It has no relevance because it makes no mention of "avatar", but is merely a description of online visual user interaction. thus, I have boldly removed that bit. 82.132.228.8 (talk) 22:55, 16 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I'm talking about images that you need permission to use, or if the author refuses permission request. How about using the image but the image is not saved on the user's "bin" online drive; only using the URL of the image to make it show up. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Joeleoj123 (talk • contribs) 00:59, 24 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

But we probably should, or should at least have more content about profile pictures that use one's actual photo here. {{u|Sdkb}} ^talk 22:34, 11 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Don't we all. I guess your best hope of help on Wikipedia is to describe your problem more explicitly on Wikipedia:Reference desk/Computing. Even better, ̄though, would be an appropriate channel on reddit.com. —Tamfang (talk) 02:46, 9 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The word avatar is ultimately derived from the Sanskrit word (avatāra /ˈævətɑːr, ˌævəˈtɑːr/);

Anyone here who knows Sanskrit phonology better than I do (believe it or not I did once take a class) and can confirm that the Sanskrit pronunciation is so similar to the English? Or was the etymology mistakenly inserted between the pre-existing English spelling and pronunciation? —Tamfang (talk) 02:41, 9 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
