Your worth in your field of work does not solely depend on the images you post but the quality of your contributions. Although putting a face on the name does help but it doesn't make sense to me when you have the option not to. I totally with Sebastian.

Personal pictures can be a safety issue. Yoda looks too fanciful. What about a logo, company picture, product picture, or service offering graphic?

I love going to a conference and having people recognize me by my name on my badge - it makes me feel important and it's a great ice breaker. Someday I will probably be my own boss, and by starting now with my name, and everyone who reads my stuff seeing it - I'm already building the "brand" I'll have to hang my hat on. ;) If I was hiding from bad press online - I'd use a nick! The photo on the other hand - I should do better with this but I hate being photographed - so that's probably not going to happen very soon. I commented over at sphinn and I’ll comment here too –

Having said that, I can see the advantage of creating a custom avatar designed to improve clickthroughs vs. the myriad of other faces we see out there. On my blog though, I'm not concerned with using my name and face. There are plenty of crazies, and I've had at least one really bad / freaky experience, but I am my brand.
