Why do you have that avatar?

DeepMartin · Jul 10, 2008

I have seen a couple of avatars around the forum and all are unique

for example someone has shaggy and someone has hitman poster ect

and i started to wonder why does this person have that or this...

anyways the question is What is the meaning behind your avatar?

My avatar: V for Vendetta

I really liked the V for vendetta movie
i have a thing about masks
also i made it in Illustrator a long time ego and it brings me a couple of good memories too
It might seem simple but it took me a good amount of time

your turn!

Agent 47 is my favourite videogame character and I absolutely loved Blood Money, so that's the only reason I have this pic as my avatar. There hasn't been any game like it so far, except maybe Assassin's Creed, but even that doesn't come very close to Blood Money, gameplay-wise.

I have alternated between a close up of disturbed (I like their music) 10,000 fist album cover, the guy in the crowed and the one I have now - which is just the T from the new Techspot main page - because I like Techspot and do most of my posting here

Because April Ryan is cool.

Because Scooby Doo is my favorite cartoon and I like Shaggy. I did a bunch of web searching for a decent picture of Shaggy and it was suprisingly hard to find one I could crop his head off and shrink it down to avatar sizes without looking terrible.

I had an nVidia Card....not an exciting story >_>

It's the grey cat from Azumanga Daioh. Excellent anime, though somewhat pointless, just like Lucky Star. I guess I'm quite Anime-centric.

Zed · Jul 11, 2008

Picture of Zed (Sean Connery) from the 1974 movie Zardoz, I like the movie....not Plan 9 From Outer Space but definitly a classic.

You can choose from the one's listed or upload one of your own...One that reflects your own idiosyncrasy.

Ok thanks. :wave:

I have a gorilla pushing a shopping cart with a viking hat on because it was a random photo my ex took that was pretty interesting.

Because my picture is awesome, and I too am awesome. We make a perfect couple.

You don't see that everyday... the closest thing like it that happened to me was someone in a choppy batman suit just waving at traffic in front of a comic store

LinkedKube · Jul 16, 2008

Because I placed second in Melee in a nationwise competition some years back.

MetalX · Jul 17, 2008

Because Duke Nukem is a buffet of manliness.

So good, I can't see it. :haha:

Julio Franco · Jul 17, 2008

LOL. Lots of good/fun responses while remaining on topic...

Mine uses the old TechSpot logo letters on a 'superman' alike theme. I will have to come up with something else to match the new design but I think for now I'm better off finishing other pending stuff than my own avatar

Why do you have that avatar?
