Avatars. Why do you have yours?

[Yuri2356]

First, I created an immage of my namesake (Yuri, of Red Alert 2) then, I got the random idea of having him trapped in a bubble. So now there he is.

 

[The Dark Master]

Mine goes with my name.

 

[Plexus]

My avatar is of the State Flag of Pennsylvania. I have this avatar, because I feel a higher degree of loyalty to my state than the nation.

And here I was thinking it was a space station.

 

[Syterion]

Mine's a little indian guy in a doctor suit with a hammer and a saw. I thought it went nicely with the mad scientist thing. And I kept it for nearly my entire life here so people can recognze me by it.

 

[schmiddi]

I'm just too lazy to look for a custom one.

 

[Ovulator]

cheetaur from one of my favorite games, quest for glory.

 

[Chukchi Husky]

Mine is a wolf...

 

[ComradeDavo]

Mine is the album cover to Tool's 'ÆNIMA' album, which is my favourite album, plus I think it looks pretty cool. Sort of like an opening into the unknown/weird. Very dark.

 

[Kal'thzar]

Photoshopped Red Rose.

 

[ComradeDavo]

Photoshopped Red Rose.

I like your one, it is very cool

 

[Godwynn]

The Notorious B.I.G. greatest hip-hopper of all time.

 

[feline_dacat]

Mine is me! Cos y'know... I'm me. That pic was taken by my other housemate on a bridge over the Thames after we visited the Tate Modern in January last year. One of my favourite pictures of me

 

[Mise]

Mine is the descendent's album cover, "I don't want to grow up."

 

[Irish Caesar]

Buzz, the Georgia Tech Yellow Jacket.
Best mascot in the country.

 

[Nobody]

Mine is the silver fern because back when the All Blacks were beating the British Lions i liked to show off my New Zealandness. I use to have the Eye off of the grude and before that the NZ Coat of Arms. It is hard to fight a pr.etty picture to fit in the size

 

[Evil Tyrant]

Mine is Vlad the Impaler, noted for being the inspiration for Bram Stoker's Dracula and for being the eccentric Voivode(warlord/prince) of Wallachia in the 15th century. More about him can be found at this site: http://www.vladtheimpaler.com/default.htm.

 

[Richard Cribb]

My avatar is Mihai Eminescu who wrote the poem Luceafarul and was a handsome man, resembling me a bit.

 

[Aramazd]

If you don't know seek help if you play civ, if not it's the immortal

I got it because I was bored with John Q. Adams and was studying Iran

 

[ybbor]

I picked mine a long time ago, when I was getting mad that after all the people sayin "never forget" and "we will never forget" seemed to star forgetting and not caring.The spotlight was added later cause it didn't look as boring.

 

[Birdjaguar]

Bird Jaguar finally emerged as the k’uhul ajaw (king) of Yaxchilán in 752 AD; he began a dynamic program of monument production dedicated to the glorification of himself, his parents, his heir, and the chosen few of his subordinate nobility.
