Poll: I've done something terrible... a thread about avatars

[Zhukov]

Me, I've been using this ugly chap here in various places for close on a decade now. I'm rather attached to him.

I'm pretty attached to my avatar aswell, however I am curious as to what your avatar is... It looks like an orc or something. Care to enlighten me?

Yeah, it's an orc.

Full image:

It comes from a little open-source strategy game called Battle for Wesnoth, although I doubt they still use this image. I contributed a few bits and pieces of pixel art to the project way back when. It was the first online forum I joined. Kept the avatar as a kind of souvenir.

 

[Aris Khandr]

Whatever I want it to be at the time. I've had Jasmine, Ariel, Cheetara, Fluttershy, the crest for the French national football team (during the EURO tournament), and now Arsenal. I want an Arsenal kit for my doll. If I can get it, she may be my next avatar.

 

[Hazy992]

I don't plan on changing my avatar anytime soon, but if I do, it'll probably be a Black Rock Shooter related GIF.

EDIT:

*snip*

Now look what your thread did! It compelled me to change my avatar! I BLAME YOOOOOOOOU!

Uhhh.... I meah HAHAHAHAH! That was actually my plan all along! My evil genius knows no bounds!

 

[Revnak_v1legacy]

I just picked my favorite character from my favorite anime. I never changed it because I mostly remember people by their avatars and hate it when people change them so it would be a bit hypocritical for me to change mine.

 

[Lucem712]

I've tried to stick to Gabumon recently, just because it feels strange to have something not involving the little guy. Though I've had a few not related at all to Gabu, but they were too boring

 

[piinyouri]

Just a theme of pictures that I like.


Probably about to change this one soon, not quite sure into what yet.

 

[Epicspoon]

I love my boring unanimated avatar. Agent J is the best. Of course I haven't really bothered looking for an animated image of him. There are probably some pretty awesome ones too. I'm lazy, first person to find me one gets zero nothings.

 

[Zantos]

I tend to stick with whoever is my current favourite WH40k badass at that particular time. Iron Warriors or Grey Knights next. Possibly from the hit series "A Brother Captain in a Heretic Land" which doesn't exist and is just me playing Skyrim as a Grey Knight yelling at things for being heresy.

 

[AceDefective]

I usually just pick something that I like. Although my current one also doubles as an accurate representation of what I'm doing 80% of the time.

 

[Goofguy]

It's pretty rare I change my avatar and even then, there's never a theme to it. I'll usually go with whatever entertains me at the time and I know I won't get bored of a few weeks later.

 

[Lionsfan]

I've never changed my avatar, and I never will either

5/5 stars. Would watch/read again. That is my hypothetical rating for your hypothetical thing.

Hey, when did I yell at you for changing your avatar? I don't remember that D:

I could be wrong. One of the regular people I talked to yelled at me about it (and the good fun loving kind of yelling, not an angry yell). I could have sworn it was you but that could very easily be wrong.

I even looked at my inbox to see if I could find the person who quoted it but it's been deleted.

Hmm, I believe I yelled at you, but I'm absolutely sure it was after somebody else confirmed it. I'm not so sure if they yelled, first, though. Or, you know, you could have had multiple people angry at you. You evil, evil man!

OT: No, no real theme to my avatars, aside from being from something significant to me. So something I like. So I'm probably like 90+% of the people with avatars. I will be trying to establish a pattern for the future, though, starting with this avatar. I'm not sure what the pattern would be but I'll stick to it.

 

[Pinky]

I think I qualify as "things that I like". I just make my avatar things that I have drawn.. although that said I should probably draw Pinky sometime...

 

[PsychicTaco115]

Did someone talk about avatar changing!?

I love doing that!

It has to involve a taco, but still!

Looking at the same image gets really boring for me, so I try and mix it up every 2-3 days

Heck, I'll probably my current one tomorrow!

 

[Ed130 The Vanguard]

All my Avatars generally have a Warhammer 40000 Aquilla or something 40k related in them.

 

[MASTACHIEFPWN]

I changed my Avatar once...
It changed me...
Changed it back a few weeks later after I managed to piss off like half the forums. Now everything is back to normal.

 

[Laser Priest]

I generally go with whatever individual clip from a video I find the most hilarious.

I'd use the gun-swapping scene from Conch, but the gif is apparently too large a file, and it looks like shit if you try to reduce the file size.

I HAVE NO BROTHER.

 

[Berithil]

I go with whatever I feel like, though I have had some sort of a pony related avatar since Christmas... Almost a year now

Same here, no matter how much I like an avatar I get bored of it before long and I have to change it
