No, not that kind.

So where is your avatar from? Care to share what avatars you use, or discuss avatars in general?

So where is your user picture from? Care to share what pics you use on other forums? (I know we used to have a thread about this, but it seems it was lost in The Great Crash.)

My current avatar, and all my previous avatars, are from Gunnerkrigg Court. So it's probably safe to assume that all my future avatars will be from there as well.

Mine is a cropped image of the eponymous protagonist of Lucifer, which also explains my caption. This is the only forum I've ever stuck around for any length of time, and I can't remember what I used for avatars on any others.

Dang, Dwellington, you have a slightly freaky avatar.

Well, mine is just Simon Belmont from Castlevania, hence the title "Vampire-Killing Troper".

Others I have lined up include:

and probably some more I can't remember.

Something I doodled on a piece of scratch paper while waiting for a Biology exam to finish. Thought it looked interesting, redrew it in Flash, saved it as a GIF, and have been using it ever since. If you see that spiral-headed stick-guy with a top hat anywhere else, it's probably me.

This "faculty lot" you speak of sounds like a place of great power...

Those who've visited my old website know that I'm notorious for changing my avatar every month or so. I've gotten a bit more stable about it since the site shut down last year. I held on to Geo from Mega Man Star Force for about four or five months before switching to Neku from The World Ends With You.

I hope you get tiny bits of eggshell in all your omelettes for the rest of your life!

Raidou Kuzunoha the Fourteenth. Currently the subject of Entry Pimp by me. Only silent protagonist to hold claim to being my favorite character within a game, much less of all. Still can't pinpoint what makes me like the guy so much, exactly, but still do.

Mine is from the webcomic 9th Elsewhere. The text says "oblivious to the conversation land." The site seems to have fallen into disrepair, though, and I can't find it on the Wayback Machine.

Mine is a parody of the default avatar from the LG15: the resistance fora. I stopped using it there because people complained that it was too depressing.

My avatar is a post modern take of the contradictions of daily life, expressed through the combination of innocence with war and soft with hard. Common yet bizarre, with a minimalistically complex design, this unique artpiece depicts the last remnants of human nature being consumed by blind ideologies and the constant motion of scientific progress, struggling to mantain it's shape in a tragic, hopeless battle. However, it also gives a message of hope, as the faith deposited in "new life" will guide it through the path of balance and trascendental happiness.

It is basically a shopped baby (my niece) face, badly pasted on a knight drawing.

Oh yes, I might as well actually EXPLAIN my avatar.

I saw a link in one of the Nightmare Fuel pages to a screencap of a rather weird scene from End of EVA. Saw part of the image that was simultaneously freaky and strangely funny-looking and decided to crop it into my avatar.

And now mutant-chibi Rei stares at you every time I post in your threads. >:D

Changed my avatar upon watching "The Day of Atonement" and concluding that LG15: the resistance is So Bad Its Horrible.

Now it's Reynardine! Because everybody loves Reynardine.
