I found a picture which was supposed to be in the public domain, & it looked cool.

Old thread, but the dino skull in my avatar is the best fossil I have ever found.

Awesome film MY BLOODY VALENTINE (1981).  My mom and I liked it when we watched it on HBO in the early 80s.  But it kept me from getting a good night's sleep.  One of Quentin Tarantino's favorites!  I would always see this on the shelves at the video store by where my mom lived in Vancouver WA.  Those movies scared me pretty good back then, but in my mid teens I got over it completely.

That find must have been historic.  I have long been intrigued by that skull.  Tell us about it.

I discovered it on a 7th grade field trip in 1997.  Here is a video of me telling a later class the full story:

I kind of, sort of like Manos: The Hands of Fate and that picture of Torgo is the most ridiculous looking one of him I could find as a peeping tom  :bouncegiggle:

Well, I'm a big fan of Howard the Duck. And oddly enough it suits me.

A friend drew this picture for me as a birthday gift (the original is is like 18"x40" BTW), and it seemed thematically appropriate.  I like the series a fair bit too, obviously.

The pic I have is of me at Pretoria's Imax Theatre, going to see Star Wars: The Last Jedi. Strange that I should be standing in front of the standee poster of the remake of the first film I ever saw.

Mine is of my late fur niece Morgan.  I've used other pictures I've taken of her for different things like Twitter.  Morgan's been gone over eight years now.  The avatar is my way of remembering her.
