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.

My avatar is the Land Leviathan unit from Rise of Nations: Rise of Legends (think Spider Tank turned Up To Eleven). I usually use avatars from that game, actually-when I don't use the Private Eye sprite from Pokemon Diamond.

So the consensus seems to be anti-consensus, twb. They're all cool avatars.

I suppose I associate Tzetze with Kano.

I can't remember the actual details of what I associate with you, TWB. All I really remember was that the avatar was blue.

I associate Pacific with the smoking guy.

I associate Nyktos with Felix. You were right.

So...anyone wanna tell me which one they associate with me? I might change it to it...

I assosciate English Ivy with V.

Anyone who assigns themselves loads of character tropes is someone to be worried about.

I don't really associate Lucky Revenant with any particular avatar. Sorry.

I guess it is.

I associate EI with that one avatar...um...it had a guy with glasses. I think the colour green was involved.

No problem Nyktos. I didn't really think anyone would associate me with any avatar. I was just curious.

I was looking through my pictures folder and noticed that I hadn't used this one yet. It's the villain from Gurren Lagann Parallel Works 6.

I guess it is.

@Thnikkafan: I also associate EI with V as well.

Do you guys assosciate me with any specific avatar? I'm just curious, and it's perfectly fine if you don't.

Nyktos, I tend to assosciate you with Felix, but it's tarnished a little by the fact I know what you look like in real life. evil grin

I want to change my avatar to something that doesn't relate to zombies, but I appear to have lost the ability to change my avatar.

I think it may have something to do with myself accidentally uploading the same picture multiple times.

Finally, I have selectified one! It isn't the pic I usually use on fora, but I think it's even better. Wild boar are very important to me; I tend to think of them as 'my guys' and intend to breed them if I can ever get enough land.

Currently cycling through avatars, trying to see what suits me. Right now, I'm using my most impersonal avatar.

Now, someone has to go here and use the picture for Zyxzy as an avatar.
