Any for the lads? ^^
- 8November 25th, 2008 9:37 am
These are cute, but yes.. they all seem fat, and none of them have sleeves.
- 9November 25th, 2008 9:38 am
Faceless avatars like these always seem kinda creepy to me
- 10November 25th, 2008 9:40 am
Nice fat-atars!
- 11November 25th, 2008 9:50 am
Smashing as usual. Thanks Navdeep :)
- 12November 25th, 2008 9:50 am
Wow, these are some really depressing responses. I had thought Smashing Magazine readers had more class than the average moron but apparently not.
- 13November 25th, 2008 9:58 am
Sweet icons, thanks :)
- 14November 25th, 2008 10:06 am
chubby!
- 15November 25th, 2008 10:12 am
No, thanks
- 16November 25th, 2008 10:13 am
Keep up the smashing standard and avoid posts like this please.
- 17November 25th, 2008 10:20 am
LOL @ the Comments!
well at least you can’t say they’re not unique :D
- 18November 25th, 2008 10:24 am
Pretty true that there are not a lot of girl avatars. I like them tho
- 19November 25th, 2008 10:47 am
This is the first time I see something i don’t like on smashing magazine.
- 20November 25th, 2008 10:49 am
These are totally useless, by the way.
How do these “Smash me with the information that makes my life easier, REALLY?”
- 21November 25th, 2008 10:56 am
Wow. So Helpful!
- 22November 25th, 2008 10:58 am
This is the most useless post in the history of the world.
- 23November 25th, 2008 11:03 am
This is total crap. Why bother coming here? Either we get a gallery of images we could find on Flickr or we get some useless icons.
Way to go smashing.
- 24November 25th, 2008 11:17 am
Crazy comments!!! I love them… keep smashing
- 25November 25th, 2008 11:25 am
Nice color tones and 3d feel. Thanks
- 26November 25th, 2008 11:28 am
Are all of you smashing fanboys high?!
- 27November 25th, 2008 11:36 am
I don’t see anything so bad in these pretty icons!!! ThanQ SM
- 28November 25th, 2008 12:02 pm
Why must they all be wearing spaghetti straps or similarly revealing attire?
- 29November 25th, 2008 12:38 pm
i’m not really enrapt by the old “faceless” style. but the idea is nice.
would enybody here deny that half of (western) people are fat or even obese?
and who doesn’t agree that this fact deserves or at least bears some kind of other culture than usual fleshles pictures of unreal people?well, just my humble opinion :)
- 30November 25th, 2008 1:06 pm
Lame.
- 31November 25th, 2008 1:54 pm
umm……… y fat?
- 32November 25th, 2008 2:52 pm
I think I gained 20 pounds just reading this post….har har har
- 33November 25th, 2008 4:54 pm
Hahaha, I love that they depict most of the western world’s body size. Maybe it was intended, maybe it was not. But still some nice icons there.
- 34November 25th, 2008 6:27 pm
Very nicely done. Thanks
- 35November 26th, 2008 12:43 am
STEREOTYPES!!! So sad to see those comments transcend even into icons – mere digital work. Like being FAT/LARGE is a disease. SHAME!!! :(
- 36November 26th, 2008 12:45 am
slim fast and the furious? ;)
thanks SM - 37November 26th, 2008 3:08 am
Well I agree these girl avatars look a bit chubby but don’t most girls/women look like this? Nothing wrong with it. If you want rail thin girls go to youpron or so.
- 38November 26th, 2008 3:21 am
Remember, big girls need love too. And thank you, finally something different! Great work!
- 39November 26th, 2008 3:22 am
I agree Dele.
- 40November 26th, 2008 3:42 am
First thought: Chubbytars. seriously.
- 41November 26th, 2008 4:09 am
Is it just me or does anybody else think that these are rubbish?
Honestly… What would you use them for?
- 42November 26th, 2008 8:34 am
Nice icons, thanks!
- 43November 26th, 2008 7:05 pm
er.. whats the use?
- 44November 27th, 2008 6:21 am
why are all the girls in this icon set so podgy?
- 45November 28th, 2008 11:59 am
they are all fat.. why?
- 46November 29th, 2008 12:04 am
İ like them. But they are fat :)))
- 47November 29th, 2008 1:44 pm
Ah thanks going to use them on our girly site fabulously40 ;-)
- 48December 5th, 2008 8:03 am
Then again, you folks could just look at your normal MSN/what-not avatar that comes out the box, and see the light. The girlie avatars are the basic avatar, donned with girly hair and clothes.
*sigh*
Thanks for your enlightening comments though, folks. Nice to know the commenters have no recollection of the history of common visual elements of our current “Internet” experience.
- 49December 5th, 2008 11:18 am
Why is the replys showing up in my rss feed?
- 50December 5th, 2008 1:58 pm

Navdeep rocks! I just love all his stuffs
- 52December 14th, 2008 5:54 am
Hey look! My generic Avatar is REALLY fat!!!
Some people miss the point entirely of what graphic representation is.
- 53February 8th, 2009 8:47 am
Put them girls on a diet
- 54April 8th, 2009 3:46 am
