My avatar matches my name, so I'm pretty much stuck with it.

Leeeeeeaning! Leeeeeaning! Leeeeeaning on the Everlasting Arms!!

I've taken to using photos of my daughter acting like a chip off the old block. The first had her wearing a Jasonesque hockey mask at Halloween. The second and current of these is her sitting at the controls of a full-size, flyable replica of the Silver Dart, the first plane to fly in the British Commonwealth. I'm thinking of changing it to a shot of Ro wearing my welding goggles.

My new one is a picture of me that's been stylized using the live trace feature on my copy of Adobe Illustrator. The quote is from Aqua Team Hunger Force.

My avatar is one of the default avatars that Andrew made available. It's the Brain from Planet Arous. As far as I know, nobody else has picked it for their picture. It's a pretty good avatar for me; I'm almost exclusively intellect at the best of times (with a slightly sinister twinge).

By now, I can't picture this page without seeing that brain picture in the corner.

Add to that (for me): and thinking of one funky-looking tabby that I would not want to mess with.

I always use a pic of Bela Lugosi...though I change it like my underwaer.

yeah, i need to get in touch with you. I'm going to get a tatt of his portrait soon, but am looking for some better pics than what i have.

anyways, my icon is me. i started using it awhile back when i kept getting asked what i look like in other forums. sometimes i change back and forth to a pic of a girl with her head in the oven. i guess it depends on how my personality is going at the moment.

Mine is pretty random, but seems to run with either pictures of myself or b-movie monsters. Ones I've used:

Destoroyah with my face superimposed over his
My own drunken mug sitting in a bar
Plesiosaur throwing up from Legend of Dinosaurs and Monster Birds
South Park-ized version of myself
Snowbeast (current)

My Avatar is Death from the "Sandman" comics by Neil Gaiman. I always like the idea of Death being a cute goth girl with a postive outlook on life.

The avatar I am currently using as of this posting is one I found on the web that made me laugh. I always felt like it was a pic of some dude walking into a bathroom and discovering that someone had not flushed. It was not until I had started using it that someone asked where I got it and another member here pointed out it is from the Italian version of Spiderman.

My avatar is me doin' what I do.

indianasmith · August 11, 2009, 09:27:07 AM

That picture is why we all like you so much, Paquita!

InformationGeek · August 11, 2009, 10:43:19 AM

In the past, my avatars have been:
+ The sign to Nilbog.
+ A picture of a Shrieker from Tremors 2 (Andrew picked my review, so I used an avatar of the movie).
+ Pete from Eight Legged Freaks shooting a spider (Same thing like the Shrieker)
+ Itchy from Dick Tracey (I enjoyed the movie so much that I used one of my favorite villian icons)

Out of curiousity, does anyone know what is up with Andrew's avatar? I am curious at what it is. It was one of the reasons I started the Avatar Topic.

Me and some friends were driving around one night, bored, just goofing off, and somehow we worked ourselves into photo-taking frenzy, and we just all over the place to different stores taking pictures of ourselves doing stupid stuff. Seems that happens quite often actually. Anyway, we were driving past the local mall, which used to have a small, 4-screen multiplex inside. The place went out of business years ago, but it was such a formative part of my childhood (I practically grew up in that theater) that I decided I wanted to get a picture with the sign, which is still up to this day... for no good reason. Anyway, we took the picture, and it's since become a picture I've kind of fallen in love with. Me and the big ol' "CINEMA" sign with the run-down, cracked old letters and everything. To me, it just kind of sums me up (at least, I think it does)... hence, my avatar.
