What is your avatar...and why?

[TheZapper]

My avatar is Chewbacca in victorian attire. Do I really need to say more?

 

[Shadow5]

MIne has my name on a space marine

 

[Tipsy Giant]

My avatar is the definition of life. The singularity of the universe. Looking into it is looking into your own soul, it is looking into the souls of everyone on earth. It is knowing all and knowing nothing. It is perfection.

It is... a pineapple

is that also the symbol for the record label ninja tune? love those guys, their artists are among the best

mine is a screen from golden axe because golden axe is groovy

 

[MaVeN1337]

My avatar is the spaceship from the movie heavy metal, Piloted by some alien stoners.
Why?

Because, It's pure fuckin' awesome.

 

[Fraught]

My avatar is the raccoon with a lightsaber from the picture on a t-shirt sold in LICD's (Least I Could Do, a webcomic) online shop. No, really.

But it's, of course, been heavily edited.

And why? Because...I like it? Really, that's about it, and the reason probably everyone else chose theirs. People also seem to not hate it completely, so much that they'd want to come 'ere and kill me when I sleep, so I guess that's good.

 

[tlozoot]

You might recognize the bastard in my avatar. I changed it to this after he wanted to change Modern Warfare 2's multiplayer to a subscription-based model. He crossed the line.

For those who have no clue, it's Robert Kotick, CEO of Activision.

I like

 

[P.Tsunami]

Spoiler: My avatar explanation contains danger of Angel spoilers.

My avatar is Illyria, Great Old One, Primordial Demon Queen of Vahla ha'nesh. She kicks ass.

I have her because I'm 1. a Joss Whedon fan, 2. I love Amy Acker's acting, and 3. the character just stuck with me. Besides, she's visually striking, wouldn't you agree?

 

[KaosuHamoni]

Its Ryu's outline, while he pulls off a Hadoken, with the command key for a Hadoken below it. Why? Why not.

 

[Jedamethis]

I especially like this one because it's very mesmerizing and tends to get the song stuck in people's heads...

It sure does. Thank god it's not too annoying as song...

OT: I'unno. Just got used to it, and then Fanboy awesome'd it. And now I'll never find anything better.

 

[linkzeldi]

My avatar is Ueki, cause I like law of Ueki.

 

[Broken Boy]

Mine is my avatar from Second Life because shes the real me.

 

[Buizel91]

Does my Avatar need explanation? It's Pikachu...on a Pokeball? what could be more awesome?

 

[Assassin Xaero]

Something I made on photoshop because I like the symbol...

 

[Suicidalllama]

Mines my guitar pure and simple. I put it there because I love my wood and so should everyone else ; )

 

[imaloony]

My avatar is TOM 1 from Toonami, the greatest TV block of all time. The word "Bang" is TOM 4's final word before the block ends forever, and below is the dates it ran from. God I miss that block.

 

[The Unworthy Gentleman]

Pi. Because lets face it, Pi is awesome.

 

[Aerodyamic]

Mine is the bunny from this song: Everyone has had more sec than me.[/youtube]."

It's secretly ironic.

 

[KaosuHamoni]

It's Ryu, no explanation should be necessary, as Ryu is awesome.

=] If only everybody saw it that way...

 

[Deadlock Radium]

Mine is Nankyoku Sakura from Penguin Musume Heart, partly dancing.
I love this avatar, it just is so awesome that you'll have to love it.

Why I use it as my avatar?
I fell in love with the randomness and "WTF?" moments in Penguin Musume Heart. Also, Nankyoku Sakura is almost as awesome as Etorofu Kujira.

 

[Zirat]

Mine is a picture Salvador Dali took, it probably wasent even posed, that's what his house really looks like.

Spoiler: Full blown picture, in all it's glory

I chose it because I love Dalis work and also it confuses everyone who looks at it trying to figure it out.
