Explain Your Avatar

It is my ass in all it's splendor. Look at it! Lust for it!

Just figured you need to see the best of me.

I would so clone and fuck myself.

It's simple math. And GIS. And Photoshop. And too much time on my hands. 😃

Wow, that looks really good, DN. I especially like the facial shadow.

Mine's just Azure Flame Kite, from .hack//G.U.

Not really much to explain... I just liked it.

Alphadawg, I may disagree with your politics, but I LOVE your McNabb/Phillies combo. Mainly because I have a very close friend from Philly, and she'd beat the ever-loving crap out of me if I opposed her favorite teams.

Wu-Tang killa bees, we are the swarm.

It's mini-Robo-Ky running from a Magneton-evolved-form-thingy-whose-name-I-forget. Pretty sure it's not Manectric since that's a conehead dog thing but that's all that's coming to my mind. I think it might be Magnezone?

BACKSTORY:
The GG series is a fighting game series which is awesome. Every character (except for this 3-year-old winged girl with a lizard tail who lives with sky pirates led by a debonair hard drinking womanizing pedophile I swear I'm not making this stuff up here) has a move called an "Instant Kill." It instantly kills the opponent and ends the round. But it's really slow and obvious and screws you over if you miss so nobody uses them (except this French boi who collects teacups and rides lightning). But they're all really over-the-top.

One of the characters is Robo-Ky, a robotic clone of said French boi who plays nothing like him at all despite being a clone. Actually, he doesn't play like anyone else in the game. But his Instant Kill, like everything else about him, is awesome. He stuns the enemy with a sword, then a throne unfolds out of his back and he sits in it. Then he opens his mouth and his tongue turns into a red-carpeted stairway and four miniature Robo-Ky robots jump out of his mouth and walk down. The mini-Robo-Kys all surround and grab the dazed enemy, fly into the air, and explode.

Still with me? No? That's okay, it's not important.

For a while I was an assistant programmer at a Java-based recreation of the Advance Wars series with custom content (Custom Wars, the project completed but then AW😃oR came out so nobody plays anymore lol). I had a mini-Robo-Ky avatar, because I made it for a Guilty Gear discussion forum and loved it because it was awesome.

Eventually one incredibly awesome member (not me) submitted a new Commanding Officer based on Robo-Ky and Andy, the empty-headed hero of the AW series (who doesn't know what an airport does yet is still allowed to command massive legions of troops in an all-out war against an alien Snifit who coughs pink smoke I swear I'm not making any of this up at all). He was an awesome robotic clone of Andy called Robo-Andy.

I loved him so much I edited my Robo-Ky avatar to hold a giant wrench and have brown hair instead of blonde like the real Robo-Andy.

Then one day for reasons I forget everyone at the site started using bizarre Pokemon avatars, like a Girafarig trussed up to look like Stalin or Pikachu and pair of Pichus in a Megatank or a kitty Photoshop'd to look like a Shinx (still not making this up). I said "I KAN DOES THAT TOO" and changed my little marching mini-Robo-Andy into a little running mini-Robo-Andy and gave him a reason to run: A GIANT MAGNET OH GOD WHY IS IT CHASING ME GET IT AWAY GET IT AWAY OH MY GOD NO

Also the wrench is gone because the Magnet took it or something.

Mine is a Protoss Observer, and when I'm on here it's usually to go lurking.

Mine is a chibi pic of Samus from one of the many Metroid dojin I found on the net many years ago. I've had several others through out the years though I don't remember them all. Here's a few:

Cheese(the food, not the chao)
Project Zombie(one of my original characters)
Kuno(from ranma 1/2)

That's all I can really remember..... :kitty:

A couple years ago my fiancee [whom was only my girlfriend at the time] made me an AIM icon that is basically a pixelated version of my current avatar.

Then about a year or so ago, she made me a full size version to use as my avatar. I haven't worn a coat like that since high school, and my hair is quite a bit different [cleaned up a lot, and not as red], but I still like it.

I decided to pick this one because it's how I feel we humans are with God as a whole. We can almost touch him, almost feel him, almost be rigth there. But all we know is the direction to look and reach . Maybe someday day we will find it, know it and be able to be eternaly happy. That and because alot of the people I thought abandoned me on my quest for self fullfillment in life as a Marine left me totally by my self in the world started talking to me again.

Mine is the last frame of the next Harry Potter movie.

Jim Morrison for some reason. That's all there is to it.

What is it really? I can't quite place it. It looks kinda like Ōkami, but I can't be sure.

It looks exactly like the end of Okami. I should know, I just beat it a week and a half ago, and I loved the game completely ***** (<---- 5 STARS)!

Anyway, I've always diregarded Atmaweapons avatar because I could never figure out where or what it was...OMG, now I know! W00t!

Lies! I know the truth, it's a screen cap of the end of the internet.

No, Trevelyan&#8212;this is a screen cap of the end of the internet:

mines me... pretty straight forward... designed to put a smile on that face of yours, and to remind us all that... why so serious?

I thought that Atma's was the ending screenshot from Kirby Nightmare in Dreamland. [shrug] If not, then its awfully similar.

Did anybody else think that was Will Ferrel at first?

"BOATS AND HOES"

mine means i wish you all catch cancer and die

Changed because Sonic Unleashed comes out in 7 days!

Pineconn is pressing charges due to the illegal transfer of monies to a forum administrator. Only Pineconn can transfer Pineconn Dollars to such individuals.

You owe Pineconn and everyone claiming damage from this act... oh... 1 Chuck Norris Dollar. Gasp.

... ... Anyway... To remain somewhat on topic, I'll likely never change my avatar permanently. Sure, I've participated in avatar swaps (which were big-time fun and hilarious), but Pineconn = Master Sword in these parts of the West, partner.

Bouncy Kirby is bouncy

Also made it myself, for no reason other than the fact I was bored

I feel like part of my soul was just stolen...

Well that's good, Pineconn - that way my demotivational poster making fun of your inability to detect sarcasm on the Internet will never become obsolete.

It's Keitaro from Love Hina. I've had this avatar for such a long time, and even though I havent been around much in recent months, it kinda identifies my name (ie; people know its me when they see it). I watched Love Hina a few years ago and became a little obsessed with it. I liked Love Hina Again more because of the art style and better animation.

It's a sloth, smiling. My signature represets most of the members of this forum. You know who you are.

I was once on a certain ROM site, and this website keeps track of the latest DS releases, with an accompanying thumbnail of the box art. One day, I saw this game on the box cover, and it just amazed me so much that I just had to save a copy of the image so I had proof that such a game existed. I felt like changing my avatar from that dumb Ganon and thought "Hell, why not?"

EDIT: I did some digging and found out that the game is called "Gachapin Nikki DS". It's apparently some kind of weird puzzle game aimed at small children. The box art is still the best thing ever though...
