The wonderfully bad stop-motion skeleton warriors from The 7th Voyage of Sinbad. That scene is something that has always stuck with me from childhood, and I loved that movie.

I don't always talk about bad movies, but when I do, I prefer badmovies.org

Mine is a cartoon of me from some free avatar site. I thought it turned out pretty well.

I change it at any given moment...always Lugosi related. Big Lugosi fan. At the moment it's Famous Monsters #35. Big monster mag collecter too

Nice avatar too!  Famous Monsters was a great magazine.  Two issues that were my all time faves were #66 with Frankenstein Conquers The World on the cover, and the near immediately sold-out issue # 114 which was basically a Toho Monsters filmbook.

FM was a great magazine. I miss it a lot, and wonder how it would've evolved in today's times, with the directions that horror has taken in today's times.

Mine is Max from Sam & Max, created by Steve Purcell.

Here's the opening clip from their first game, Sam & Max Hit the Road. I fell in love with the characters during the first couple minutes of the game.


Ever play "Poker Night at The Inventory"?

It's the first I've heard of it. Looks like it could be fun, at least for a little while.

FM has been reincarnated! I personally haven't seen any of the new issues, but it's supposed to retain the feel and spirit of the original.

If you're an Andy Milligan fan there's no hope for you.

Mine is a stylized picture of myself.  Done with the live trace feature in Adobe Illustrator.  I think it turned out pretty cool.  The quote is from Aqua Team Hunger Force.
At least, that's what Gary Busey told me...

Mines currently the Air America logo from the 60's and 70's. Air America was a CIA black ops group that posed as an air transport group.  I kinda have an affinity for military things like this so it seemed natural. It still isn't as good as my old avatar though, which was a skull on a pike!

I thought it was Jason and the Argonauts.

It's from the movie "The Phantom From Space".
It's the only natural looking scene in a movie where everyone seems very uncomfortable, particularly when they're trying to look relaxed.

I keep thinking I'll change it to something "Galaxy of Terror", "The World;s Fastest Indian" or maybe "Comfort Zone", but this just seems so gosh darn indicative of my character.   :bouncegiggle:

I always thought yours was Cary Grant picking his nose.  I'm a little disappointed that it's not.

My avatar has changed quite a bit throughout my time here. Right now, it's the cover of the single for W.A.S.P.'s cover of "I Don't Need No Doctor". Good song.
