I am sorry I mistakenly used your avatar, I really wish I hadn't as I never wanted to upset anybody here, and I am glad you notified me about it so that I could change to a different avatar as soon as possible. I wish I could tell you exactly where it is that I originally found it but I can no longer find it. Hopefully it is gone from the collections for good.
I agree with amandalouise about personal pictures though. I tend to stay away from posting them in places myself. that's why after what happened I chose just to use an image from disney that way if anyone else ever used it I wouldn't care at all because it really isn't mine.
maybe since it seems your avatar is gone from the collections now you could use something less personal so that you don't feel violated again? for me it was an honest mistake, taking your avatar when I didn't realize it was your personal photo. But if someone else took it, you never know how people are going to be, and it could lead to some hurt feelings all around...
