Why the avatar?

[Fidget]

This thread is for everyone who'd like to share the story behind their avatar. For me, I like Duskull, and that's it.

the skull reprisents how dead my mind is....
it also shows you how dead my brain is....

for a skull is "hollow"..

therefore,no brain...
and no mind...

In a spot of shameless glory-seeking I put my Mary Sue's name into Google to see if anything came out and I discovered The Furry Sue Zoo.

There are plenty of snarky avatars, awards etc. on there and I loved Sonic's expression in the one I've chosen as my avatar!

Because Gecko Moria is awesome.

And is an awesome shadowman.

It seems a certain skull avatar user has finally realized the truth of their own mental disability. What can I say? The truth eventually makes itself known.

Tis me. I've had fancharacter icons in the past and figured, why not just be me? It's surprisingly different. And it was the only pic I was able to shrink down to the right size.

My fancharacter! During the day, I'm an ordinary man with a simple job and a simple life, but when duty calls and something goes on the forum, I become......Thony Hedgehog!

[Tucra Redwood]

my first avatar was a character I had created on the Sonic creator on Facebook.

When I shrunk it down it became much smaller than what I wanted.

the one I have now comes from the Furry Doll maker.

I was on there trying to figure out color schemes for my fan characters. The character that I have now, I had created before, but he was always yellow with orange hair.

During my experimentation I put the red hair with the dark green and behold, what you see before you.

One of my Deviant Art pics.

A SatAm character in Uekawa style is sort of a merging of two worlds really (and hopefully something that may come to existance some day).

That and I'm a big fat show off.

[Elisto Dragonwings]

Can't think of anything else. Seriously. I was thinking of using a picture of myself in costume or holding the boxset, but I still feel weird about using my real picture.

[RockoFanatic]

I had Rocko, Heffer, and Filburt as my avatars (for quite obvious reasons), then decided to go for something different, so I put I.R. Baboon (from I Am Weasel) for my avatar.

I've just noticed his T shirt is printed upside-down. Luvvit!

<- Because it's Bark... and Bark pwns you.

Just kiddin'. I actually liked this drawing of him from the last Archie comic, so I scanned, cropped and made it an Avie.

[Vilsy]

Just because "King Sonic" has a nice ring to it.

[PorpoiseMuffins]

Okay, knock it off, Rave...

As for my avatar, it's my Internet alias: a porpoise named PorpoiseMuffins. I drew these weird porpoises with nostrils when I was a kid because my friends and I thought the word "porpoise" sounded funny. In school I would leave this little doodle on random papers and things, and it kind of became my symbol.

[Electrocalos]

simply because i like sally and this was the only pic i could find at the time that would shrink down.
