Where'd Your Avatar (Picture) Come From?

Mine's a "self-portrait" drawing I made myself last year and scanned. I like it because it looked a lot like me, anime-style. I'll probably hang on to it for a long time, even though I don't actually look like that anymore (shorter hair and no beard).

I modified my current one and people started questioning the notion of sexuality in suspended animation. Later I tried a totoaly different avatar and people complained that the werent whitnessing insect penetration with each of my posts. So I went back to this one and thats my life story.

My regular one is from Sensei No Ojikan of 'Oyaji', the high school student is already acts as like an old man...

Of course I've got it backwards. I'm an old man who acts like a high school kid.

last year I was changing them seasonally, but right now I'm settling with a slight crop of the cover of Radiohead's Kid A album.

My avatar is Sheris from s.CRY.ed, because she's a very beautiful girl and I like her. I change my avaters regularly, but I haven't changed it for a while now. But I will change it soon (and use my Christmas avatar again

)

My current one is the temporary Halloween one. Robo-ky (with an added fancy blue shiny light effect) from GGXX seeed fitting since he looks like Ky with a mask. I was using Sol for a while, but I noticed someone else sing Sol,m so I changed it.

My old constant was the blue haired Amarao

He came about after alot of messing around with amarao pictures' tint in MSpaint, giving them sections of different tins, ending with the blue haired, blue glasses, and white background. In some random topic (which I think was FLCL related, and was talking about the dramas in the 2nd OST) the I mentioned that I wished My avy could have twitching eyebrows. Oldwrench volunteered and it became what it is now.

I think I also used some other avatar for a brief stint during the big moving amarao period, but brought back the amarao avy due to popular demand (literally)

I will probably start using something else (moving most likely) after halloween is well past and I decide I'm done with robo-ky

Almost all my avatars are that of Ayako Katagiri from the dating sim game Tokimeki Memorial, the best SNES game that never had an English language localization. I have not always used Ayako though. One halloween I used that of a vomiting Jack O'Lantern. I remember using live action Tuxedo Mask once. My first avatar here was that of the protagonist from the extremely obscure manga Zero: The Man of The Creation.
