Whats the story behind your avatar (you know, that picture under your name); other than the ones that are self-explanatory.

Mine is an ensignia I designed for a Graphic Arts assignment last school year. I actually have a version that is 720 x 720 pixles.

If life calls and you're busy, let the answering machine pick-up.

Just so you know, my previous avatar was NOT a swastika, nor did it have much similarity to one. Just thought I'd clear that up since I cannot use my own original art work.

My avatar is supposed to be one of those robots that attackes people in one of those REALLY low budget horror movies. It's pretty funny. Too bad the picture isn't that great though.

Mine is a picture of me when I was a baby. I'm in a small bath tub and my brother who is three years older is bathing me??

I'm completly naked in the shot but someone put my hand over my privates to cover up...given that someone my age at the time should not have such a large package .....even worse exposed.

mine's a character from Cowboy Bebop, a show you should all be watching. I find him a fascinating character, and played around wiht an image i got from some site, altered the colors, and added that border and his name (which is really hard to read, due to my lack of foresight).... it's Spike.

My avatar is Sarah Gellar. It will always be Sarah Gellar. Pic changes every few months.

ive been dieing to get a good avatar, at last i found one best suited for my screen name here on these forums (and RS.net forums but thats a different story...)

its the sepheroth from FFVII
it was kinda easy to make it into a avatar becuase it was like 150x50 and it was just his face in there... so... cut, copy, and paste!

Needs more moo-cows.

I posted a thread asking for help in getting a better avatar. I am not very skilled in digital imaging or many other programs that edit img's. Thanks to the kindness of the helpfull people on this forum, I have found one I liked.

What an ass

Mine is... wait, which one am I using again?

OK, it's pretty clear. My name used to be Merlin. Merlin is, of course, a mythical wizard from the 7th century AD. Hence the avatar. Now the name is different, the av is irrelevant, but it is still unique.
