Citizen Kane
I recently got a compliment about my avatar, Mad Daffy Duck. I think he epitomizes what I am about: an egocentric but helpfull and selfaware figure who is not afraid to defend himself from all sorts of threats (even governmental) and is selfconfident enough to stick up a finger and say to all his enemys: "Put this in a place where the sun don't shine! (with a big smile to his friends and familie, because he really likes 'em.). Daffy's also a figure who can also make other people laugh with his stupidities and can make people feel better. I can really relate to that.

Please, share your story on what kind of avatar you have and why you use it

(you just like the drawing or is there any other reason behind it...).
hlavco
It's a Pichu, because I like Pichus.

It has a Super Smash Bros outfit on, because I'm pumped for Brawl to come out.
Miniwood
This is Servalan from the late seventies/early eighties TV series Blake's Seven. She was the head of the evil Federation and she was a very camp baddie.

None of the characters in the series were particularly honourable or likeable and this reflected the sort of punk fatalist feel of the times. I was 12 when the series started and it felt like the first 'adult' TV show I understood and appreciated. I've watched it ever since.
Hobbit
Mine is simply ironic. Gummy bears (sweet and cute) KILLING another.
mathechew
mmmmm..... pizza.

I got it in another forum, before I had Flash 8 Pro, someone asked if anyone wanted an avatar, and I said I wanted a pizza one. He made it for me, so I got it.

I love pizza... burgers are better though.

Oh, that reminds me... I've gotta go take the pizza out of the oven LOL. no seriously though. I smell burning...
CrimsonStrange
Thanks for the invite, Citizen Kane. Smile

Well, I'm a big Looney Tunes fan, and I guess I've always related to Foghorn Leghorn because of the Southern accent/sayings/values that character was known for.

As for the saying on my icon, not only was it a line from one of his cartoon shorts, "The Foghorn Leghorn", but I find myself constantly wondering the same thing: What's it all about? LoL
rightclickscott
Ho shit, it's Hlavco. How ya doin'?

Mine is my picture, because in a place where there is a huge number of people, I like to show people my face, because I can 3 dimensional that way. Also, so girls said that I look like that guy from My Chemical Romance, and that it was sexy, even though I have this big dislike for Emo as the kids call it.
hlavco
Oh crap, he's tracked me down!

In the interest of staying on topic, I'll stop talking now. I already described my avatar.
TeenZine

Mine is one of the cats living with us. His name is Kong (Yup, that's after king kong)
and he's huge! A loving and calm guy, bah, crap, I can't describe him,
ya got to know him, and you'll have to settle with the pic Confused

Anyhow, as you can see he have different colors on his eyes. And he's white.
And I love that pic.
Andrew426
Well I was reading this topic and I thought "I need an avitar" so I busted out photopaint and made one.
I had just been looking at a pic of a red and black '71 gtx, so I was in a red/black mood.
I Have un unnatural obcession with MoPars, so I decided to include that.
And the name "Andrew426" Is white because I thought it created a good contrast with the black.

(When I made it it was 140 pixels wide, and it looked much better)
erlendhg
I have a laptop as my avatar, because I am a computer geek and like computers Razz

Oh, and all other geeks, check out http://www.thinkgeek.com.

LostOverThere
Well mines a duck (AKA: Super ugly ruber Duck, Or LostOverThere). Pretty much the very firsted forum I ever went on, I used that for no reason at all.

And i've stuck with it, its kinda people see that duck, you better believe it...i'm here! Smile
Alegis
I love the Dilbert comics, and the TV series I own on DVD. Dogbert is an awesome character, screencap'd this avatar from one of the DVDs.

Especially those that were in my WoW guild will think it fits me Razz

I've changed avatars quite a bit over the past few months. I never stick with one avatar. Currently, though, my avatar is a reallly good little graphic of the globe with the words "Free Your Mind" written on it. I was searching for a nice image with these words on it, and this one seemed perfect... the colour combination is really cool, IMO... the green, the light blue, and the purple-blue... it looks fresh, like iced water...

"Free Your Mind" is kinda like my rule of living. Anything is possible, and co-existence is possible if you free your mind to other ideas, other customs, other people. Knowledge spreads only if you free your mind, instead of entrapping it within the limits of what you have been brought up to believe.
selim06
My Avatar is may be a nationalist one...The picture is about Turkey's founder: M.Kemal ATATÜRK and he was a hero who could win the wars for fredom against Greece,France,UK,Armenians after World War I...So i think he deserved the most important place in our hearts...I have response him so i choosed his photo as avatar...
rfwrangler
I developed this graphic originally for an ad campaign comparing dial-up to broadband for a Business that I am starting. You can grow old waiting on files to download w/ dial-up and this guy must have been downloading the latest windows updates.

I liked the graphic and it is the way I feel after a long session of research or coding. That why I use mine.
SpellcasterDX
Mine is just an icon I use in a DiscoBoards forum. It merely reflects my username. SpellcasterDX
So, it matches my identity and whatnot. It's also a pretty cute anime girl. lol
Code of Ruin
I was looking for a good avatar matching me but never really found one. The my friend dug up this one as a joke and said it matches my character perfectly. I just took the avatar and uploaded. I think the monster looks kinda nice and maybe it really does reflect something of my personality. Rolling Eyes
withaar
For reasons that will remain unnamed here, I made a matrix rooster out of fimo. It has a rare-earth magnet stuck to the back so it doubles as a fridge magnet. Standing next to him is super rooster - you can just see his cape.

Yeah, that's Commander Keen. The lead character in an early platform game made by ID software, the people who made the Doom and Quake games. Commander Keen was pretty revolutionary for it's time. 16 colours and very smooth movement. I think you can still buy the game from ID on their website.
pawelsz
I made my avatar in Macromedia Fireworks about a month ago. It uses blue colour because I like it. There is my name on it and a artwork from the witcher game (exactly it is a monster Razz).
quixotic
Mine is Sailor Neptune with the word "Vanity" in pink, because I'm absolutely in LOVE with Sailor Neptune, and I'm also incredibly vain.

And... I haven't posted in so long I had to check my profile to actually remember what avatar I'm using. Embarassed

Ok, if I have to explain this one...Out! I say, Out! Laughing

BTW, gummie bears killing eachother is super sweet.

I also like Edvard Munch, The Scream. I've always liked that painting, but I did see it in some mainstream advertizement for a magazine not to long ago, and I was seriously upset. Artists with a death wish, and Willie Nelson because of a tax audit are the only things you should see in advertizements.

Mine goes relatively unexplained - Jesus is important to me.

Yeah, I think the only reason I posted in this thread was because, at the time, yours was the latest post.
paul_indo
I made my avatar from a photo of an Indonesian traditional mask.
I have been living in Indonesia for a few years now so I wanted something which reflects the local culture.

I like the coloures and the look of it too. I have been using it since I came on frihost.

butterflyfields
First of all I hope my avatar looks right cause I rezise it and well, yeah. Well my avatar is a butterfly and is part of my butterfly fields avatar for my website that Im going to have, ---still in the process. The website will be about butterflies, music, me, and well other stuff. I love butterflies forst of all, and I made up this saying, think it is my signature but ok here it is. "Life is like a butterfly, always trying to fly away." Meaning that you have always a butterfly (soul) around you, and when it fly aways it means that death is upon you. Pretty deep I think, but that is jsut me. I also have a butterfly becuase I like pink and black and becuase it represents alot about me. Im sociable, talkative, and funny. Don;t know how it realtes to a butterfly but for me it jsut does. Hopefully everyone will be a ble to see my website, and hopefully everyone likes it. Very Happy
SFMeatwad
Heheheh.

I think if it shows, because I recently placed mine into my avatar slot, that it's a person making himself into a fireball.

I'm a pyromaniac, yes I have been officialized; however, I'm not that mentally challenged or retarded to dump a half of gallon of gasoline (Unleaded) onto my head and set it aflame.

Instead, I would make a flame thrower, a potato gun, and a mini-flame thrower.

Flame Thrower: Supersoaker, tissue, and gasoline.;
Potato Gun: P.V.C. piping, water nozzle, P.V.C. air switch, aiming cue.
Mini-Flame Thrower: Hair spray, body spray (anything Aerosol), lighter, gloves.
mathiaus
A while ago I found a short photoshop tutorial for a matching sig and avatar. This is how my avatar came out and my sig was alright as well but thats been replaced a long time ago.
Hopefully I'll be able to change it to something that represents me a bit more soon Smile

EDIT: Found the sig, i turned out better than the avatar

For those of you who care, I have nice little back story behind the picture that is my avatar. It was on a day when I just decided "hey, why don't I go to the mall today?" So, I got one of my friends, Ashley, and we went, because I don't like going anywhere alone. While at the mall, we stole a vibrator and some handcuffs, making things very kinky. That picture was originally upside-down, but I liked how it looked right side-up, even though I hate that picture all together. I prefer the one where I'm flipping everyone off, but that's a story for a different time.
{name here}
<- Calvin and hobbes. I used it because it describes how I can't stay stationary on the computer - I'm always moving the mouse or something, and it goes well with my "mysterious person" theme in these forums.
LA Ridge
I am always interested in the meaning behind the artwork that people choose.

My avatar is about reaching out and how we all need help sometimes getting things done. I used to think I was an island unto myself, and much of the time I am, but over the last couple of years I have really tried harder to"reach out" so this is what it means.

NO ALIENS! An avatar was supposed to be for wasting bandwidth or something for Frihost, thanks to n00bie4life.
Soltair
My avatar is the best image I've found of a mythical D&D character I created for gaming purposes. Of course, it has been modified slightly, but it fits quite well the character. Soltair be his name, just like my nickname. He would always wear a large hooded black cloak, black leather armor and an heavy battle axe. None can see his face... That's it for Soltair.
bogger
My avatar is of bogs, my nick name, for my nickname. and then there's a wave in the background, which i think looks cool, of course, after making it, people started interpreting it as a toilet :S
valkyrie-heavens
<-- Cedric. I was just so obsessed with this movie when it came out, and I thought cedric was the best part of the movie. Hes so hot. And what do they do, they go and kill him off.

karysky
My avatar is simply Christoph Doom Schneider, the drummer of the band Rammstein.

They're the band that made me discover GOOD music, and that's why I like to put a little bit of them all over the internet where I right stuff. Plus, they were the band that triggered my passion for german culture and language.

My signature is a link to my website, on which I put Rammstein stuff I've done, like drawings and music videos.

Dragate
My avatar is just a simple picture of Sesshaumaru, a character from the anime, Inuyasha. I myself don't the show that much, but the art is pretty good. As in... Really good! Very Happy It's not that bad of a show and I recomend it to people, it's on YTV (for canada) at 9:00 pm Easter Time

This is a picture of Inuyasha I found some long time ago and edited it so little bit, but can't find it anywhere anymore...

*sigh* I actually sort of miss that show... It has 4 movies now and it's so long... The fighting.... Is not that good seeing as it's is mainly just blakness with light streaks as sword slashes and such...
Marston
My avatar is possibly the best Misfits album ever released.

EVER.
Hogwarts
You might want to fix up the title. "Eplain your current avatar". (Under Featured Discussions, not the actual thread's title)

Mine's pacman. Pacman is pacman, what more is there to say? Also, I thought it would be origional to have pacman eating my name in the sig. Then I thought that my other avatar was far too animated, so I just changed it to simple old Pacman.
saurabh.sauron
mine is the LOTR villain Sauron, coz my name sounds like Sauron. everyone started calling me Sauron and then even I called myself Sauron. i took a fancy to this eye and use this avatar on every forum i am a member of, even in gmail chat. Laughing

My avatar is mainly the firefox logo with a cross on it. I called it I hate FireFox.GIF. You should se someone with the avatar of this guy hugging firefox and pushing away internet explorer, man if you hate internet explorer I hate FireFox Arrow Arrow Arrow
PatTheGreat42
If I have the avatar I think I have, my story is really quite simple. I ran across this avatar maker one day, where you could select all sorts of things that "define" you and slap 'em together into a simgle pic. When I did it, it was stupid enough to be cool.

I've had it for a while...it looks kinda pro...so i kinda like it...

Something more personal would be nice at some point though...

*Luke thinks about making a new avatar*
nilsmo
I don't have an avatar. I've noticed that posts usually take up a lot less space than what the Author column does. The Author column tends to take up so much space, it's almost annoying. No avatar reduces the annoyance.
CrookedBlaze
I think mine is pretty self explainitory.

But, you know, I have this up because I really do not agree with the U.S invading Iraq. Yes, we helped them, and now we should get out of their. People are always saying "You'r not patriotic." just because I don't "support our troops" but you see, I support the troops themselfs, but not the cause anymore. And I mean, really, there is hard evidence pointing to Bush being there for OIL.

And what I don't get is we can spend trillions over in Iraq, but we can't help our neighboring country, Mexico. They ned help just as much as Iraq does. Maybe not in the leadership department, but in the public health department.

is there anyway we can put up a cool forum on our websites Cool . what are the websites likes. I like www.felixdahousecat.com becuase he`s bad ass! I`ve been trying to learn some flash. Flash is an interactive web based animation program that can help you build web pages or web page elements. Using Flash, you can pretty much make your web pages do whatever you want them to do! Flash is the first widely accepted real step towards turning the web into interactive television. It?s not even funny how much further Flash goes past what HTML can do. Flash works great with animation, interactivity, and sound. Like a print based program, it allows you to place elements wherever you want them on the screen. awesome!! Surprised

My avatar is bill the platypus. The original was a drawn sketch of a platypus used for some distro of linux. Before I even knew what linux was, I found the picture, because I am also half-australian and knew what a platypus was. Then I decided to draw some stuff on it and it looked good. Actually on my website bluetaters.com I have a contest to make your own Bill Jr. Just go to the extra misc page and look for it.

My current avatar is Forte, from the Megaman Battle Network series of games by Capcom, and the television show. Basically, he's the badass character who never dies, and is on the "bad" side if you'd like to stereotype. Basically, Forte represents the undying h4x0r spirit, which forever inspires countless generations of mods... Or something.

My avatar is a picture of me, because I didn't want to put the face of Bruce Lee in every thing. Laughing

I think it's nice also because I've edited it quite a bit! Wink

My avator is a set of paws so that I leave a trail, wherever I go. Seriously though its like look, someones been here and they have left a trail!

i can only say that my avatar is made by me Very Happy . It is not very good....but it is nice...simple...i'm not looking for a prize for my avatar.
So...good luck to all Smile
DarthSilus
My avatar symbolzies my sith-yness.

If you look closely, you'll see Darth Sidious. Darth Sidious is what we like to call a stud. He is sexless, but a total studd-muffin and a pimp.

In this sense, I am Darth Sidious... only my name is Darth Silus.

Have a crappy day!

xeroed
I made my avitar, because I did a google image search for something (don't remember what) and I came across this guy in a raincoat... I started messing around with it, and all of a sudden I had this interesting looking graphic... So I saved it and now I use it here ^_^
solarwind
I don't have an avatar. All of my images are larger than the allowed size and it's a waste of time for me to resize them.

What's the point of an avatar anyway? To look at it? Then what?

I might resize mine sometime in the future.

I'm a big Linux fan and the one that I'm planning to

put is the Inttel logo instead of inttel inside, its Linux inside.

That's nice.

My avatar is Marvin, which is the character I assume when on the net. I am just as depressed as him, so it fits well Wink

Oh, hey, I can't remember whether I have an avatar here. If this post is not edited, I must have Wink

Marvin is actually the character in the HHGTTG move that made me laugh the most. It was not the same in the book. So I guess the movie screwed up. Oh well ...

Mine stories really nothing special... A few years back I fell in love with CCS, and I thought Sakura was really cute. I just happened to come by a picture of her looking out her window into the rain, and I really liked it; I think it really brings out her innocence and her carefree nature, so I made an avatar out of it. It was the first avatar I've ever made, and it made me feel accomplished Very Happy so i kept it until now!

Animal
Since joining Frihost, I've not used an avatar - I never found one I liked.

My new one (added today) sort of explains why my username is "Animal" and it also lets everyone see what kind of mood I'm in every time I'm on this forum! Razz *

It makes me laugh when I see it, so it's good enough for me. Plus, everyone gets to see what a ruggedly handsome fellow I really am! Wink



* - Yes. It was a joke!

Two wolves snuggled together with the word Love semi-tansparently overlaid.

I use it cause I made it. The picture of the wolves was off google and I edited it a bit and added the word. It was the first avatar I made (first as a normal image) and I didn't understand why I did it. I'm a rather dark person, but I like the idea of Love.

a zillion is not a number. Numbers are million, billion, trillion, quadrillion, pentillion, and so on. illions require the correct prefix such as bi, tri, quad, pent, and so on.

Okay, let's get back to the topic that matters, your avatar!!! Laughing Laughing Laughing
Juparis
My avatar is a snap-shot of "Shounen Bato," or basically "Little Slugger" in American-ese.
He's featured in a great (but short) anime series called Paranoia Agent. He seems to be everything that I am:
Smart, devious, an escape for many people, original/creative (in his hits, anyway), unknown, and misunderstood. Oh wait, I'm talking about the imitation-slugger, not the real one. Laughing

The real one mutates into a real killer, and looks more like a rat.
If you're confused, I highly suggest you find the show and check it out, because it's really sweet if you have the patience to watch it all..

My Avatar is nothing special, it shows my favorite japanese singer.
I was working on it in Adobe Photoshop, a good programm to make nice pictures. The original picture was darker and had a low quality.

I just like this one. I really improved the tone fo a josie moran picture, stuck on a few coloring layers, a light texture, and a text brush, and tada! My avatar!

Mine is a rebel trooper, obiusly i a fan of SW, but a long time ago i wrote a fan story for these troopers... "rebel" i called.

Mine isn't anything special. I am a huge Shawn Michaels fan and once had a website dedicated to him, till the wwf *at the time* used copy rights against me and made me shut it down. But here I stand still a fan with an avatar of him Cool
bpetro
My avatar is the classic two-thumbed Gonzo fist. I'm a huge fan of Dr. Thompson's work and carry this avatar as a way to raise people's awareness of such a brilliant man.
XLax
I'm not photogenic, so I spiced up a side-view picture of myself with red. A feint red. It kinda looks cool. Before I took the picture I burnt my name into my face with a cigarette as you can see. Well... not really. But I did paint it on with the computer.

ivanegues
mine came from a joke:

Un sádico, un masoquista, un asesino, un necrófilo, un zoófilo y un piromaníaco están sentados en el jardín de un hospital neuropsiquiátrico.
Sin saber como ocupar su tiempo, y aburrido, el zoófilo dice:

- ¿Y si nos follamos un gato?

Entonces el sádico dice:

- ¡Eso, vamos a follarnos un gato y después lo torturamos...!!!

El asesino agrega:

- Vamos a follarnos un gato, torturarlo y después matarlo!!!

El necrófilo:

- ¡Vamos a follarnos un gato, torturarlo, matarlo y después lo follamos otra vez..!!!

Y el piromaníaco:

- ¡Vamos a follar con un gato, torturarlo, matarlo, volver a follarlo otra vez y prenderlo fuego!

Se hace un repentino silencio, y todos miran al masoquista... Y le preguntan:

- ¿Y, Tú no dices nada???

Y el masoquista dice:

- ¡¡¡Miauuu...!!!

i'm not sure why I don't have an avatar. or why we don't. everything you anticipate is a disappointment. I do know I'm lonely and I'd rather live in California than new york but for love i've got to go to brooklyn or manhattan or ugh. I'm not good enough anyway. Getting back from a ten day trip, it's hard to resume life without a hand. Red Lobsters and criticisms.
ignition
Mine's the Fort Minor logo...pretty sweet artist. I bought the album several months back but he's only recently become popular with the song "where'd you go." I don't listen to FM anymore but the logo's pretty sweet...so yep it's my avatar. As if anyone cares.
squirrelmaster
I am really grateful to the services of frihost, and my avatar shows it.

I saw a similar once and did this in Image Ready.
Why do I have it? I am an Aviator and from Germany. And i am proud of it Smile.

linexpert
My avatar, if you didn't recognize, is Arthas from Warcraft.
I started playing warcraft frozen throne about a month ago. My advice is never start playing. Warcraft is basically a drug, you can't stop playing. It's awsome...I spend atleast 4 hours on it per day. So that's my avatar story. Very Happy

It is always telling me sth wrong?
Is iT?
The avatar must be less than 100 pixels wide and 100 pixels high
and so on...
mtoni
There never was a special reason for me to have this avatar..
I was just browsing the fansite kit of neverwinter knights and then i found this picture....
The picture is just pretty you know, a good contrast between the red, white and green and it's really detailled.

So I started using it a couple a years ago and it never changed

Tatsumaru
First post here Cool

The guy in my avatar is from the band Wintersun, one of my favorite metal bands... cool thing about them is, on their self-titled debut album, this guy does the bass, vocals, keyboards, guitars, mixing - everything! Only other member was a drummer hehe.

Basically he's awesome and I like this sinister shot of him Smile
nopaniers
I don't have an avatar, but I have a name: nopaniers. Really it should be "no panniers" but I'm a bad speller. A few years ago, after saving for a couple of years, I quit my job as a computer programmer to ride around the world by bicycle. Unfortunately then 9/11 happened many of the places (western Pakistan worried me in particular) which I was planning to go end up on the news. So because I didn't get to ride around the world (I went and did a PhD instead), my name nopaniers.
Freezon
Simply my name, photoshopped, added some effects and made it green. I made this about 2 years ago, since then it has been on other forums alike and I just use the same name and avatar with most forums, so there you have it.

Nothing special, but green is one of my favorite colors and even though it's a bit cheesy, I enjoy my old avatar non-the-less. Cool
