Profile avatars general

[Squilookle]

This ol' thing? I whipped it up while learning to use Imageready. I'd probably make something new if I still had a program to do so in.

It's just your standard suicidal death dive through a hail of fire. You know the kind.

 

[TheYellowCellPhone]

It's Feferi from Homestuck. I use it because it's a gif, and I just like this avatar -- the art, the animation, the character. I found it off some random Tumblr page, had it modified in a March Madness Avatar thread to fit the theme of March Madness, because that's when I switched to this avatar. I swore I was going to use it only for the month of March last year, but that was nearly a year and a half ago and I still haven't found a new avatar.

Probably going to have an Adventure Time avatar next. Maybe...

 

[Z of the Na'vi]

It's Cell from Dragon Ball Z, questioning the validity of my posts with a single, judging look.

I've had many different avatars in the past, and have been rather random about them as of late. I used to have a Renamon avatar [http://a4.ec-images.myspacecdn.com/images02/148/6de70cc4947b44bf8b00cad2644cee38/l.jpg] for a while that creeped everybody out. I may bring it back.

 

[Samantha Burt]

I've got Princess Luna from MLP. She's drinking juice because it's adorable.

It doesn't really have any significance; my life is boring. ):

 

[Fijiman]

Mine is Daniel Contreras from Fallout New Vegas wearing a Mk2 combat helmet. The reason I have it is because(so long as he's wearing the helmet) he looks a lot like I do. I do change my avatar once every few months or so. I've actually got an idea for my next avatar in mind, I just need to put the order in at the avatar store.

Mine's Boris Johnson, though he's often mistaken for Donald Trump on these forums it seems. He's the best politician Britain has to offer currently, by which I mean his politics are still usually awful, but he's got a fantastic personality, knows how to appear to be likeable and isn't afraid to make gaffes which, somehow, then go on to strengthen his career instead of destroying it. He's also pretty funny and whenever I hear him speak I just kind of love how antiquated he seems.

For example:

So yeah, Boris. As for changing it, I don't. I've had Boris for ohh, about 4 years now. Before him I had an awesome animated avatar of Cloud from Kingdom Hearts but, alas, that is now lost to a dead hard-drive. Still, I like Boris. Wouldn't dream of changing him.

 

[DanielBrown]

Mine is a picture of me back when I was 17(I'm 23 now). An old friend of mine photoshipped it a little bit(yes, that smiley is actually photoshopped). Use it because I can be sure no one else would use it. Thought I had an original one before, but it didn't take long until I encountered another guy with the same avatar.
Originality is pretty important on forums like these, when people recognize each other by avatars... I've wanted to change it, but not I have had it for so long it feels like I'm stuck with it.

 

[Shinclone]

Black Mask from Batman. My favourite from the Batman rogues gallery. Plus, I love the picture.

 

[Palademon]

Fon Spaak from the manga side story to Gundam 00, Gundam 00F

It's different enough so that I feel slightly unique.
He's an interesting guy. Goes between guy who enjoys things crazily too much, and a guy with a straight face with things to say about strategy and philosophy.
He was kicked out of a terrorist organisation when as a kid for being too violent.

I hardly ever change my avatar because I think people will completely forget me.
However all my avatars have been characters grinning.

 

[Danny Ocean]

Mine's a shrunk and edited version of this picture:

Which was made by, I think, a Japanese artist to commemorate the tsunami. I like its one-world message and style. I used to use a cropped version of this:

 

[EeveeElectro]

The past 3 or 4 have all been Harley Quinn ones because I loooove her. Thinking of changing it soon, might even not be a Harley one! I love a lot of things and I'm trying to find an awesome avatar to show that off.

 

[Pickles]

I found mine on the internet, I've used it for years. Just something about it.
I just wish I knew who made it so I could properly thank them.

 

[iwinatlife]

Mine is the Great serpent coiling around the Wheel of Time..in red because I like red. It never changes because there is no beginning or ending to the turning of the Wheel of Time but when I picked it was a beginning

 

[scorptatious]

Well my current one here is Rozalin from Disgaea 2: Cursed Memories. I've been bitten by the Disgaea bug not too long ago, and I'm currently playing through 3. Rozalin was one of my favorite characters in 2, and I recently found this GIF via Deviant Art and thought it would make a nice avatar.

I often switch avatars a lot for variety, but my default one is Vivi from Final Fantasy IX.

Mine is from this horrifying scene from the Thunderbirds movie:


It's been heavily edited though.

Jesus Christ how horrifying.

 

[Johnny Impact]

Grr....nrff...blarg........EURH...RAH... GRAAAAAH, RULFFFF, YARGAAA!.....[munch munch]

Left 4 Dead, obviously. The most sublime multiplayer experience to be had anywhere, full freakin' stop.

 

[Silvanus]

Bullseye from the Marvel universe. One of my favorite supervillains. Makes a nice avatar as well. I've had this avatar for a while. No plans to change it any time soon.

You know, for some reason, I thought your avatar was Black Hand until now. Something about the depraved expression.



Mine is The Monarch, Doctor Venture's true arch-enemy! "You see, just like the flawless monarch butterfly from which I take my name, The Monarch has many ways to sting".

 

[Lennie Briscoe]

Lennie Briscoe, of course. He's my favorite character from Law & Order.

My account is named Lennie Briscoe too, just because I thought it was kinda funny that one time.

 

[Lightknight]

Just me standing in an over-priced consignment shop in Pike Place Market (Seattle). Quite a few pounds heavier in it than I am now, but I like the face I was making while holding those stuffed creatures. $56 for a googly eye'd stuffed turnip? I think I can do better with the money.
