Hey fellow CBers and most excellent dudes! I saw this comment on the old Ask Admin thread:

Howdy Admins 1, 2 & 3! A while back we had a "what do you think other CBzers look like thread", I was wondering, what do you think we look like?

 

Oh, there are so many of  you, I really can't take the time to describe you all. However, you I picture as a large daisy with a bent stem/neck, swaying in the breeze and listening to all the sounds of life with all your petals.

I've no clue where the previous thread about this subject is, but I thought it would be nice to have a new one!
I will not give any descriptions right now, as I want to hurry and finish posting before I get caught using the computer without permission. So I'll talk more on this tomorrow, dudes! See ya! (It's wayyyyyyyyyyyyy past my bedtime...)

Melody: A girl in a yellow shirt with the Disney logo on it, blonde hair and jeans, wears shoes with fake jewels and plays piano very well.

@JDD

That's really specific!  That's a pretty good description of me, too.  I'm not too good at piano, but other than that the only thing you have wrong is the fact I don't have jeweled shoes.  Or a yellow Disney shirt, but I have tons of other Disney shirts.    I don't know if I've described you before, but you have dark hair, blue eyes, and freckles and you're super hyper.

Well, one of my favorite colors is purple. I'll give you that.

I know this is late, but I feel like posting, so I will. Most of these have a lot more to do with names than personalities because I automatically visualize everything I read, which means I've had mental images of all of you since long before I got to know you.

In my head, I tend to look mostly at people's faces and not notice clothing much; when I see them doing stuff that requires their whole bodies, they tend to blur. I'm very nearsighted in real life without my glasses and even more so in my head; my mental pictures get really vague when I zoom out on them--so some of you are going to have clothes described, while some are not. Of course, I could invent details, but I'm trying to describe what I actually see when I read your posts.

As a rule, if you're not wearing a dress, and I don't describe your pants or skirt, then when I have to see more than your face, you're probably wearing jeans. (If I don't say whether or not you're wearing a dress, then unless you're a boy, it means I either can't tell or am in a hurry because bed).

Also, apparently, you only change your clothes for talking about what you're wearing and then go back to the usual... and when you get older, you basically just get taller, except I don't notice because so do I. My subconscious is lazy and not very creative. (For the same reason, none of your clothes have designs on them, except for maybe Listening Daisy's--I can't tell; they're just sort of a white and yellow blur).

I hear your voices narrating your posts, too, but while every person's appearance to me is unique, my subconscious seems to have a list of stock voices it assigns to different people, so I won't be describing voices unless they're unique.

Blackberry has black hair in a bun and black eyes.

Blonde Heroines Rule is blonde and has green eyes. Her hair is in a ponytail. 

Blue Fairy wears blue and has blonde hair in a bun and blue eyes and is kind of short (because fairies are, probably, although you're nowhere near fairy-sized).

Butterfly wears her brown hair in a ponytail with a butterfly clip, and she's wearing purple. 

Daffodil has shoulder-length blonde hair and brown eyes and is wearing a yellow dress.

Elizabeth has black hair (not quite shoulder-length) in braids, pale skin, and green eyes. 

Emma has light brown hair a bit beyond shoulder-length and brown eyes.

Everinne looks like a tan elf with shoulder-length, straight brown hair. 

Gollum looks nothing whatsoever like Tolkien's Gollum. She has auburn hair (a bit longer than chin-length), hazel eyes, and brown glasses. Also, her face is kind of narrow, although certainly not abnormally so. 

Ivy has almost waist-length black hair, black eyes, and is wearing a green dress.

JDD has brown eyes, tan skin, and short, sandy hair, not quite brown, not quite blonde. I think he's wearing brownish-red.

L has not-quite-shoulder-length black hair and black eyes.

Lexi/Theo has dark brown hair that goes just past the ears and black eyes. It's hard for me to tell gender by looking, although Theo somehow looks more male than Lexi--I can't really explain how. 

Listening Daisy has shoulder-length black hair and eyes and is wearing yellow and white. She has kind of a quieter voice.

Maggie has thick, wavy, light brown hair a bit longer than chin-length and brown eyes and wears blue. 

Melody has long (between shoulder- and elbow-length) red hair that she just happened to dye black right when she changed her name or something (and it's been black since she became Melody) and green eyes. 

Miki looks pretty much exactly like I imagine my else-Internet friend Mikazuki (spiky, dark brown hair, brown eyes, medium skin).

Red has red hair (not hair-red, the kind of red that's the CB background), brown eyes, and is definitely wearing a red sweatshirt. I think also jeans. I think they're kind of the default pants for my subconscious.

Ruby also has literally-red hair (chin-length), brown eyes, and a red shirt. Her shirt's a long-sleeved t-shirt, though. 

SC has blonde hair in a ponytail and brown eyes. She's wearing a red sweatshirt.

Steve has light brown hair, dark brown eyes, and glasses. 

Teresa looks like Tiffany Aching (T names, I guess) but with brown eyes. 

I've seen actual pictures of TNO, but since I've known her on the Internet for more than 4 years, I don't see her as her actual self. I see her as having waist-length brown hair (probably influenced somewhere along the line by hearing how long it really was and then ignoring when I heard it was cut because that was too big a change), green eyes, brown glasses (I think brown is my default glasses color or something), and pale skin.

True looks like Beth from Little Women but with light brown hair and eyes.

Violet looks like Violet Baudelaire from A Series of Unfortunate Events, basically, but with shorter hair (about shoulder-length) than my headcanon of her and no ribbon. 

Incidentally (responding to all descriptions of me at once), I have straight, brown hair that was around shoulder-length until about a week ago. Now, it's a bit under chin-length. I never style it because I don't care about my hair. I have hazel eyes (which in my case means brownish-green), glasses, and pale skin. Since several of you mentioned my age, I turn fifteen next month. (I should probably fill out the age and location fields sometimes). True S. got it basically right, although I'm not much older than most people here (particularly as the only other person she mentioned as being older was TNO, who is about five years older than me), nor am I unusually tall for my age. Oh, and (back to other descriptions) I don't own a beret (I'm actually not sure whether I have any hats), and I only wear fancy dresses on special occasions. Mostly, I wear pajamas at home, although I'm public-schooled, so when it isn't summer, I have to get dressed. I usually don't pay enough attention to know whether or not my clothes make a serious statement, although some of them are definitely plain.

@Ima

Blue Fairy... short?  *stifles a laugh*  That's pretty interesting because Blue is taller than I am and almost taller than our mom.  She's 5'6" or 5'7", which is pretty tall considering she's only in middle school.  I like your description of me.  I wish I was a redhead or had black hair and green eyes.

To continue...

 

Theo: brown hair in a kind of a bowl hair cut (with bangs), eyes that shift between blue, green, and grey, short, kind of shy-looking

Lexi: while Theo's relatively androgenous, Lexi looks different and decidedly female.  Long blonde hair, blue eyes, and a flawless complexion (?)

TNO: I've seen your Facebook before because I've clicked the link from your Figment so I know what you look like.

Ruby M.: like someone from a manga or anime

Emma: curly black hair in pigtails, always has a toothy smile on her face

Everinne: blond, dressed like a fairy

Maggie has thick, wavy, light brown hair a bit longer than chin-length and brown eyes and wears blue.

@Ima: My hair is dark brown (almost black). It's about two or three inches past my shoulders and is almost always in a ponytail. My eyes are kind of brownish-hazel. I have acne it's really horrible.

My personality: Around my close friends I'm usually quiet. Around my other friends (the ones who don't know the secret) I'm very energetic and happy. I always manage to embarrass myself. I always have a book or my iPod with me.

Who are you guys on Facebook? I just got a Facebook (not that my mom knows about it :p) and I want to add y'all.

Well, we're not allowed to share our last names here, so that's a difficult question to answer, but many of us are in the Cricket Chatterboxers Official* Facebook Group.

*It isn't official at all, really, but I'm pretty sure it's the only one there is.

Gah, I still need to run joining by my parents.  I found it a while ago, but I thought it was dead, then you mentioned it, and now I need to ask and gah!

I had a tab open where I had everyone's name down and was slowly filling in my ideas of everybody, and then my mom turned off the computer and my tab went bye bye.

I'll get around to it, I swear.

I did the same thing in a notebook! I just haven't done it yet.

I'm not allowed to have a Facebook account. Heck, I can't even get onto Facebook. Though I've never really had the need for one.

My mom actually wanted me to make a Facebook account because I was being too much of a hermit.
