What do Avatars mean to you?

So how close to Waugh's personality are you then? As I mentioned earlier here, the photo likeness makes me regard the owner as the persona in the avatar!
Not sure if making a comparison would be blasphemy or not, but not that similar, although i could draw a number of parallels.

I tend to picture the avatars as the speaking voice of what the person has posted, except for things like flags. Having a "face" does make them easier to remember, and that's part of the reason I picked mine (which is from the American/Canadian TV scifi show Andromeda, btw).

Whatever floats your boat. :crazyeye: The lady in the picture is an android and an avatar AI controlling what is one of the most powerful starships in the galaxy in the Andromeda tv series.
 
I know the TV series. I thought she was a hologram though?

More to the point, I assumed you were a fan of the actress'.

Even so, it's still a picture of an attractive female... which I am to believe speaks your words? Pretty freaky from my perspective :p

She was (and is, the series is still on AFAIK) both a hologram and an android. I'm a fan of Lexa Doig (the actress) only to the extent that she does a very good job of playing that part.

And I don't mind freaking you out a little, in any case... :lol:

Oh... and the real face of Aphex Twin:

caution, staring at this too long can give you nightmares
 
My avatar is the cover for Ænima, an album by my fave band Tool. I really like the kind of dark images Tool use, and I think this pic is reflective of my state of mind and of life in general.
 
Well, I've been here a while, but haven't posted enough to get a custom avatar yet. But I like this one. It's the black knight! And nobody else uses this one, so it's pretty unique. I might change it if/when I reach 300.

EDIT: I think I'm going to change my sig soon as well.
 
Mine is just the Flag of Honor....what could possibly be deduced from that?
 
I haven't changed mine. Mainly because I'm too lazy.
