Some time ago, eBay bought out Skype, and proceeded to try to get it's existing members to try it. I never did, but there's still an unwanted Skype icon on my screen.
Until recently, when I brought up my Microsoft Word file of canned paragraphs, it went to My Documents, but suddenly, it started going to My Skype Pictures instead. I manually change it every time now back to My Documents, and never bothered to see what My Skype Pictures was until now. You would think that with a title starting with "MY", I would have some imput in deciding what MY pictures are, but Skype knows what I really need, and it's a bunch of different artwork, most prominently displaying the Skype logo.
I now realize that's what I getting whenever I try to go through the avatar set-up process. I guess there's a way to bypass this irritant and use my REAL photos, but I have yet to figure it out, or magically create the time necessary to establish this most-critical-process -to-enjoy-your-eBay/Skype-experience!

This is slowly but surely turning around and becoming much more friendly than in the beginning. Pam, I know how much effort you have put into "reprogramming" this and it's really appreciated. Ken, now you can get your little green avatar back !! Sheila, whatever you are doing behind the scenes is also much appreciated.

Just curious.
