Is it what I think it is? If so, I'm not sure why everyone else is doing it. :confused:

I've considered changing my avatar, but 1) I don't know what I'd change it to and 2) I've had it for a long time. I think it's the only avatar I've ever used, though I'm not sure.

I forget the custom title is even there.

There is no way that you could have used that avatar since you have been here. I know that you got that avatar after the 10th version of SGOTM with the team Smurkz. and that was about last year some time.

The avatar comes from Kan's pen and a pic he drew in his RTW AAR which had all of our avatars in it, over in the Other Games Forum (think Prince Scamp has a coloured version of his)

It's ethan from Ctrl+Alt+Del incase you don't follow the comic.

The user title's just regarding the avatar.

My custom user title is by now well known. I don't think I will change it any time soon.

My avatar is, of course, Christmasified.

LucyDuke

I've got the bloodmas avatar right now in solidarity against that Christmas anime thing. The most recent one, that I'll probably go back to after bloodmas, is Catherine Bach, who played Daisy Duke in the Dukes of Hazzard. Robo-snickers thought of it. I like it. I got rid of my last avatar because I remembered that I hate anime.

My current custom user title makes me laugh every time I see it. I'm not sure whether it's a vague insult to the reader or just an odd claim. I also use "American Girl", 'cause I am, and it looks cool, and "Beer Wench" when I'm wenching beer.

Show me where I stated this? Do you realize you just put words in my mouth? My statement was, and I quote:

and 2) I've had it for a long time. I think it's the only avatar I've ever used, though I'm not sure.

No where do I state I've used it since I've been here.

I know for a while I went without an avatar, but I honestly don't recall if I ever used another avatar. If so, I'm guessing it wouldn't have been a custom one.

I know that you got that avatar after the 10th version of SGOTM with the team Smurkz. and that was about last year some time.

I've had this avatar more than a year, I think. I'll have to check, you've got me curious.

You might be able to get it into Paint:

Right-click on it
Select "save as <something>"
Open My Computer
Look in where you saved it to and right-click it again
It will appear with some options beneath it on a borderless rectangle
Click on Edit

That's maryland's flag? It looks far more like a random ol' European coat of arms flag that I would find in EU3!

That's because it is.

The flag of Maryland consists of the heraldic banners of the family of George Calvert, 1st Baron Baltimore. It is the only state flag in the United States to be based on British heraldry, though Washington, D.C.'s is as well. It was officially adopted by Maryland in 1904.

The black and gold design on the flag is that of the Calvert family. It was given to Calvert as a result of storming a fortification in battle (the vertical bars approximate the bars of the palisade). The red and white design is that of the Crossland family, the family of Calvert's mother, and features a cross bottony. George Calvert adopted a coat of arms that included a shield with alternating quadrants featuring both the colors of his paternal family (in the 1st and 4th quarters) and of his maternal family (in the 2nd and 3rd quarters).

The Maryland colony was founded by Cecil Calvert, 2nd Lord Baltimore, hence the use of his family's coat of arms in the flag. Initially, only the gold and black design was associated with Maryland. The red and white Crossland design gained popularity during the American Civil War, in which Maryland remained with the Union despite popular support for the Confederacy. Those Marylanders who supported secession (many of whom fought in the Army of Northern Virginia) were reluctant to use (and to fight under) the banner that was associated with a state which, grudgingly or not, remained with the Union; they adopted the Crossland banner, which had the benefit of being red and white (seen as "secession colors").

After the war, Marylanders who had fought on both sides of the conflict returned to their state in need of reconciliation. The present design, which incorporated both symbols, began appearing. It was flown October 11, 1880, in Baltimore, Maryland at a parade marking the 150th anniversary of the founding of Baltimore. It also was flown October 25, 1888, at the Gettysburg Battlefield for ceremonies dedicating monuments to Maryland regiments of the Army of the Potomac. Officially, it was adopted as the State flag in 1904 (Chapter 48, Acts of 1904, effective March 9, 1904). In 1945, the legislature made a gold cross bottony the official ornament for a flagstaff carrying the Maryland flag.

I might bring back Sherman. I loved Zorak as a kid. Space Ghost Coast to Coast represented all that was good and great for me in the 1990's.

Does this bring back memories for you too? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dtYiXDNpStM)

Space Ghost made me feel cool and old because I had to stay up and watch it. It was the cool show before adultswim, and when that came on I watched it just for Space Ghost at first. It was great stuff. Gotta say, Zorak is a big leap from Sherman and Obama, but definitly the best guy on that show.

The new avatar is the LDS temple in Washington DC. I'm using it right now..
a) so you can pick me out from all the other people sportin Obama avatars
b) Because I am moving back to Washington DC in two weeks
c) because I felt like getting an LDS themed avie for a while...and this is the 2nd coolest one (I can't compete with Eran's Porter Rockwell)

I've gone several times, but always on ward temple trips, so I have no idea what arrangements were made. I think you can just show up, since it is a large temple. As far as public transportation, I think there is a bus that has a stop reasonably near, but it's still a bit of a hike. Don't know because I always got a ride.
