My avatar is of my original character EMily, who is the personification of the electromagnetic force. The EM force is my favorite force out of the four fundamental forces of nature, and plus I made her blue, because blue's my favorite color.

My avatar is Team Rocket getting pwned by my favourite Pokemon. It basically states my loyalties when it comes to the war between people who hate Pokemon and the people who love it.

My avatar is a picture of me dressed as a Hunter from L4D drinking coffee. Why? Hunters are cool.

Mine is Baby!Dave, from Homestuck [http://mspaintadventures.com]. I picked it because, c'mon, it's Baby Jam! Homestuck is an amazing comic, but I've considered changing both my av and my name to the handle of a character I like even better than Dave: Nepeta.

It's Heero yue( i don't think i spelled that right) and gundam 01. Why, because gundam wing is awesome, and heero is such a badass, he can sprint with a broken femur.

It features my glamorous and fragnantic facial features, which convolutes every single relationship on this planet, since at least 99,9% of the vaginapeople (also known as women) feel that their boyfriends/husbands/lesbian lovers are inadequate after viewing the picture of my beautiful face.

So yeah... It's me.

Mine is a sackboy version of The Nameless One, and in the foreground is the Symbol of Torment.

I thought it was the most amazing thing I'd ever seen, so I figured I'd make it my avatar. I know I'll make someone's week when they realize what it is.

Mine is Eh! Steve which a)Really made me laugh the first time I saw it and b)is obscure enough that not a million people use him.
Well time to constantly wear my Eh-Steve shirt (If I still have it)
OT: Its a guitar that looks like a foot, with bee stripes and wings sticking out, I chose it because its my favorite artist's ex-main guitar.

Mines an edited version of Glad to Be Back by George Grosz. I really like the painting so I cropped it to make it a better avatar.

Here's the full version


Don't really know what it means, but it looks really cool to me.

It'a Pikachu.

Why? Because it's just so cute, and I got tired of that Pinsir picture.

You may recognise mine from the art-deco loveliness of Bioshock. I think it's a visualisation of the lighthouse leading down to Rapture and may just symbolise the greatness that Rapture was meant to be...or some such crap. Either way, it's round and looks quite nice, so it's my avatar.

Your collective turns.
<==== Default avatar. Why? My avatar does not define me.

Mine is a picture of the Green Flash (probably not really, but it's what I google searched for), because I like the color green, and it's tough to get a picture that combines green with the sky.

It's a fencer. I chose the avatar because I'm a fencer. Like the little man in the graphic, I too use a foil though I do not employ the "classical" stance.

I rather love Pin-Ups. Not in a sexual way (being a straight female) but I love how easily they mixed class and sex appeal. Varga and pin up art is my favorite.
