Explain/Show Off your Avatar

[libertyernie]

Maybe some people around here just want to show how cool and specific and delightfully obscure their images are. All you do here is write about it, and maybe post it in the post for archival's sake (in case you change it.)
For example, this is an Avatar/Avatar avatar:

Huh. Maybe I should actually use that one...

 

[StinkomanFan]

My avatar is The Mole from Happy Tree Friends, a blind man who gets stuck with the jobs requiring sight that almost always ends in hilarity. And by hilarity I mean tragedy.

 

[global-wolf]

My avatar is an Espeon holding a basket with an Eevee in it. It's by an artist called Purplekecleon on deviantart. I think it's super cute ^^

 

[the melon!!!!!]

Mine's the Brule Ranger!

 

[Teran]

I just got a picture of Frieza with crossed arms and added some visual effects to it.

I think it looks pretty nice.

 

[Omnicron's Baklava Enterprises]

Mine is currently the weapon icon for an axe called Bryntroll, the Bone Arbiter from World of Warcraft.

^What it actually looks like.

 

[Fly_Amanita]

My avatar is from Yuri Norstein's Hedgehog in the Fog. Norstein is my favorite animator and I frequently use images from his films as avatars.

I think this particular image is from promotional art or something of the sort since it doesn't actually appear anywhere in the film.

 

[eighteenspikes]

It's the sandbag! Look at him go.

 

[SkylerOcon]

My avatar is a kitten.

I just... like kittens ;_;

 

[Luigitoilet]

Laika is so cool. Always thought your avatar was just a random dog, but man, it's awesome that your avatar is Laika.

 

[ru5514n]

Mine has Fox and Falco on it because I use them in Melee.

 

[mzink*]

My cat.
Pretty simple. Though he is growing so I will probably update that avatar.

Sometimes Gardenia forgets how to dress

That is one majestic avatar Luigi and thank you Skyler for posting the theme of the motherland.

Well, my avatar is of Vic Rattlehead,

He is the mascot of the Thrash Metal band Megadeth, I know I could had had a generic avatar of some anime or video game character but Vic suits me pretty well and he is pretty much my avatar of choice for all of my picture-related needs.

 

[Pluvia]

Ash died and Pikachu's crying.

 

[Mota]

Major General Olivier Mira Armstrong from Fullmetal Alchemist brotherhood.

She's so badsas

 

[Jonas]

Basically just found some artwork of Paper Bowser and gave him a big grin. Later, when I was a premium member, some kind soul in the disco room gave him a rainbow 'fro for me. I sadly can't remember who it was, but I'm very glad he did it =D

 

[Mr.Freeman]

A headshot of Gordon Freeman. I don't really like the white light around his head though.

 

[pitskeyblade]

Sora from Kingdom Hearts II. Simple and clean.

 

[Colonel Cuddles]

An AK and sickle. Russia's unofficial nation flag.

 

[Lore]

Ishasawa from Angel Beats!, which is a decent anime that's out this season.

 

[XDaDePsak]

It's SSJ Vegita. Duh.

edit: aw, ****! i don't have my custom avatar anymore

 

[Kupo Rose]

Amy Rose.

The pink hedgehog you'd hate to hear.

 

[RuNNing Riot]

The USS Iowa firing a full broadside of her nine 16-inch guns on the 15th of August 1984.

I've made it pretty much a tradition to have my avatar that of the Iowa by now. I was just fascinated with battleships when I first started using forums and it all just stuck from there. XD

 

[Luigitoilet]

It's SSJ Vegita. Duh.

edit: aw, ****! i don't have my custom avatar anymore

holy ****!!!!! no way, xdade.

 

[Evil Eye]

X isn't back that's nonsense.

Also my avatar is Shadow Man, the character from the awesome video game. Except he has orange disco shades on. It's a Decisive Games thing.

 

[Patinator]

Hee.

My avatar is the Medic from Team Fortress 2, an awesome FPS. A friend of mine put the words 'Hello Fraulein!' in it, which is one of his many wonderful quotes. :3

 

[XDaDePsak]

someone give me my vegita avatar back!

wait i think i learned how to upload it

 

[XDaDePsak]

this is an intentional double post to see if me posting again will make my avatar show up

edit: YES! it worked. I am once again the prince of all saiyans

 

[.Marik]

It's abstract art, hands shaped together to form a face.

 

[The Mighty Kiwi]

Well .Marik yours is pretty good, but nothing beats the awesomeness of Captain Falcon (except Vegeta maybe).

 

[Pikaville]

Evil Marik from the Yu-Gi-Oh Battle City series.

All his lines were pure gold.

It never ceased to amaze me how ludicrous some of the things he said were.Watch some of this if your interested.From a minute on is pretty funny.

Crazy *******.....

 

[Irg]

Kogasa Tatara from Touhou 12. Art is by はも

 

[Geist]

Cerberus emblem from Mass Effect 2.
Because it's awesome.

 

[SharkAttack]

It's a trap!

I just can't help but laugh seeing your avatar every time. I KNOW Evil Marik was bat**** insane especially after watching the vid you linked, but I don't remember him sticking out his tongue like that.



As for my avatar, it's Vela from the forgotten gem of a game on the N64 called Jet Force Gemini. I <3333 Vela.

 

[jamlosingthegame]

Sora from Kingdom Hearts II. Simple and clean.

I see what you did there. My avatar is basically simple as well. It was once an animated .gif, but I had to make it static for this site. I just did it cause it fit my name here, and I don't think I've seen people with The Game as their avi. I guess I better expect being hated for a while now.
