What's your avatar about

[Headsprouter]

I'm gonna make this short and sweet. My username is Headsprouter, and my avatar is from a nice picture of him (an odd creature from Timesplitters) done by a not-often-seen user named Pinky. Talk about being in the right place at the right time.

I think it's very welcoming.

 

[Canadamus Prime]

It's Shenron from Dragon Ball. The mystical Eternal Dragon who'll grant a single wish (two wishes later in the series) once summoned.

 

[Daystar Clarion]

Do I have to?

I'm pretty sure everyone knows what it is at this point.

...


Fine


She is Amaterasu Okami, origin of all that is good and mother to us all.

 

[Dranen]

My avatar is Kagami from Lucky Star.. I like the show/character and I thought this picture would work well because she's either saying or pointing at my post(s) .

 

[Mrkillhappy]

Mine is Captain Harlock the reason I picked it is because he is awesome that's why.

 

[Aconite333]

Mine is a simple arrow pointing towards the actual content associated with it. It's based on the conceit that an avatar is almost always placed to the left of something, and that something is usually more important than the little picture beside it.

It's me, in my awesome hat.
seriously, look at it.
bask in it's glory

that shit's iconic, if I do say so myself.

It's a cartoon version of my head. In a Futurama jar.

Mine is a recolored picture of Yahtzee's character Trilby. It wasn't drawn by him, it's some fanart I found. On some other sites, I go by the username "Gentleman Thief", and the picture was one of the first results when I did a Google image search of the phrase while looking for an avatar. Then I used Photoshop to crop the image and tint his suit, hat, and tie to the colors I preferred. After a while, I decided to use it as my avatar here, too.

 

[clippen05]

Pennington from Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door. Well, PM:TTYD is one of my favorite games of all time and Penguins are my favorite animal so... yeah... that's why I chose it.

 

[Lieju]

Heinz Doofenshmirtz is my hero.

That's pretty much it. As for why this particular picture of him, I like to imagine he is looking at my posts baffled why I'd write the stuff I do.

This is my Ork Warboss. There are many like it, but this one is mine.

[Formica Archonis]

Badge Tetris and Yukkuris.

 

[Arslan Aladeen]

<- Franklin Delano Bluth from Arrested Development. I thought he was a funny character in a funny show. Not much else to it. I guess I should have had a funny story or quote from the show, but now that I acknowledged that, I don't really don't feel like putting it in now.

 

[JagermanXcell]

Izanagi.
A deity born of the seven divine generations in Japanese mythology and Shinto, and is also referred to in the roughly translated Kojiki as "male-who-invites" or Izanagi-no-mikoto ("Lord Izanagi"). It is also pronounced Izanagi-no-Okami ("The God Izanagi")
...and he is from Persona 4.

He helps angsty teens discover their true selves whilst looking cool. I like him.

 

[Raikas]

Mine is Pete Wisdom throwing his powers around in a panel from a mid-90s issue of Excalibur.

I've used the same image on several forums, so I stick with it for consistency.

 

[UltraDeth]

I found mine in the "Reaction Faces" gallery on "Know Your Meme".

Spoiler: Eventually I found the original image. It's pretty cool

Because I admire the look of WarHammer 40,000. All the huge heavy armour and weapons, and the how the Imperial guard regiments are based on real historical regiments

 

[Blow_Pop]

Mine was a photo from haunt with me and one of the wolves but now it's a photo I took in bioshock

 

[RariShyZealot]

It's Fluttershy and Rarity from MLP, cuddling. Because they are THE OTP...
And because the pic is cute.
