Just wondreing where you got your avatars from and why that one??

Way back in school we got some laptopts, but security was very basic so we could change the background. me being me in my annoying years i decided to put something up that woul "attract attention" I found this picture of a shark eating someone and i caused such a fuss when someone else used it. Loved it ever since.

I used to be an enthusiastic reader of the manga Tenjho Tenge. The character in my avatar is the protagonist in said story. I may change it eventually, as I changed the one before.

A detail of the cover from possibly one of the best fantasy book covers-- Blade of Tyshalle by Matthew Woodring Stover.

mine is a weird picture of me that was taken about 5 years ago.

one of the first forums i was on, lots of people used their real photos. i wasn't quite ready for that, but i was fine with putting up this odd photo. i use the same avatar on nearly every board i'm on.

I'm a coffee addict and I found a lovely avatar somewhere online.

I wanted something to with reading, and I'm very fond of Snoopy. His views on life are very often in line with mine. I googled "Snoopy" and "read" for images. Found one, cropped, shrunk etc. in picture Manager and Voila!

(I'm also kind of like Snoopy in that I think alot but don't say much.)

I design things like that myself. This one in GIMP (nice full-featured, free download graphic program) using their nifty Script Fu feature with a mystic/magic symbols dingbat font.


I've got some dirty ones if anybody is bored with this one.

I made mine with a character simulator for MapleStory.

I got my chibi Princess Dany from Livejournal by typing in a game of thrones in the search bar. I love the colouring.
