I don't know if it's been asked, but considering avatars change everyday, I'll ask anyway. I know the characters or subjects in some people avatars, but I completely ignore what most of them are about.

What's in your avatar and why did you choose it?

I think many people know that Rinoa Heartilly is in my avatar. I picked her mainly because I was playing FF8 when choosing the avatar ( and I still have to complete the game after all this time :heh: ).

For some reason this reminds of the commercials that say "What's in your wallet?" O_o


But it's Dante, from Devil May Cry. I chose him because.......uh.......I like Devil May Cry. o_O

I needed a good Solid Snake picture...and when I saw this one....really made me happy. So I decided to put it up.

As I always matches my Avatar to my banner, it isn't the same case this time around. My avatar is blue and the banner is Black and White.

But what common about the two things are, ........I have Solid Snake's side pose on both the things. As you can see the right side of Solid Snake in both the images, and keeping in mind that they are not the same pics. So this time it isn't color, but the image's picture style.

CHOBI!

The cutest little chocobo in anything related to FF (Final Fantasy Unlimited). He is one of my favorite characters in the series. My title goes along with it. "Kweh" is the speech of chocobos.

You should trade your avatar for mine, pal :D

Mine, as for those who don't know, it's Nelo Angelo from Devil May Cry, one of the most badass enemies I have ever seen in a videogame, and definitely one of my favorites.

I honestly dont know who mine is but I thought she looked the most like me. Plus I liked her expression, I tend to 'quirk my brow' like that alot.

I would have a custom one but my laptop is stupid and can't have the file size low or something, it'll never let my upload! Ah well.

Right this moment in time my avatar is Lu Xun from Dynasty Warriors 3, who happens to be my favourite character in the game.

Mine's just something I knocked together. It has no meaning or anything, I was just messing about in Photoshop and thought 'That's simple, yet effective - that'll do'...

I'm not sure exactly where they got the pic for this dark wizard, but I picked it because it represents my persona. i'm seen as the wierd one, all in black, which doesn't mix with the crowd, so I think this fits.

Eccentrically, I put time and thought in selecting my avatar. Though some people may disagree, an avatar is made to be a resemblance and similitude of you as a person. In my case, I chose Ruyan from Forever Kingdom. Though I'm not a big fan of Forever Kingdom, I found that Ruyan fit my persona quite accurately. I'm sincere and caring, which I find in Ruyan. I am truthful to my close friends, which Ruyan is to Darius in Forever Kingdom. Most importantly, I enjoy competion, but find struggle within myself, for I am a peaceful person, even in conflicting situations. Ruyan seems to come close to my personality in some aspects, therefore I chose this avatar. Selecting this as my avatar, will represent my personality in every post. I hope this has had a good first impression on you all, for it's my first post. Thanks. :P

I picked my avatar because it represents me somewhat. I always seem troubled about something or thinking and I never take off my glasses. Only when I sleep.

Mine is Crono from Chrono Trigger because he is a lot like me. He doesn't talk much and my favorite weapon of all time is the katana.

I think your avatar is one of the cutest I've seen around here. For some reason it seems "realistic" and sweet at the same time, even if the character is not a real one. It's like looking at you sitting in front of the monitor of your PC :D

Ha ha ha ha, looky looky, I don't have one. But just look at it, in a way, the dak void has it's own unique qualities, which could never be captured with an avatar like any other. The blank spot of doom, where perhaps a face really is, but shrouded in mystery, this face will never be seen.

Actually, after i got rid of my sigs, sooner or later i just dropped the avatar as well. I might get one sooner or later, as soon as i can find more pics of Sorata from the new X series.

It's James Sunderland from Silent Hill 2. I am like him in certain ways...and can picture myself going on an acid trip of a journey like his for a lost love or something through long dark halls of depression...yearning for answers perhaps...only to become more lost. Etc...

I just re-did mine. I FINALLY found a site that gives free image hosting!!! So I'm taking advantage and making my own sigs and avatars! Whee!

This is a photograph of a cement street lamp I took while downtown.

There are random 'graffitti stickers'; people take these large white stickers and draw on them with a Sharpie.

I happened to love this idea so i took a picture! Sometimes you can find them in a row and they make up a little story if they are intact. Very fun to spend an afternoon looking for em! I have no life! ;)
