It's more to do with branding than anything I would imagin. If you keep seeing the same avatar time after time, then what's on the avatar starts to stick in your mind. Now if you need a site that is about web directories or something and that is what was on the avatar, then you may end up visiting that site mainly because you saw it in the avatars. The only reason you probably would have remembered that site is from seeing so many of the avatars with that site on it.
