I have finally got around to adding an avatar for myself. I've seen all the weird and wonderful avatars that people are using so I thought it might be interesting to hear why people have chosen their particular avatar.

Who wants to go first? :)

It was among the first to appear on a search meeting the physical parameters needed :lol:

I take it it's the Jazz you were interested and not the Sony, right? :)

Why I choose my avatar I'm using? That's an interesting question. I think I found on dc then looking for some videos and I liked it so I decided to use it as an avatar.

Perhaps also you can explain why you decided to use your avatar, TPO?

Mine's the Laughing man from Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex. The smiley happy guy is a nice contrast to my previous avatar, which had a anime guy, vaguely resembling The Tick, yelling. :)

The news reporter in the movie Citizen Kane (1941). Xan = Xanadu = the name of the mansion in the movie.

TPO/ Yes, the jazz, but thought the graphic was nice enough to live with the Sony part. I suppose if I wanted to kill two or three minutes I could get rid of that part :wink:

Because I'm a squirrel!!

Or maybe not.

I'm probably just mad.

Naw...I just chopped it out of some wallpaper, since it caught my attention out of the collection I've got.

Well, I have a 100x100 one on my LJ site. I think this is 64x64. I think I have a 48x48 one in the DC:Pro and DCGUI-QT forums. It's all from an Illustrator drawing I made, so I can scale it as appropriate. ;)

Mine's really not that complicated...I guess.

I just really love playing pool (especially 9 ball, 14.1 Straight, and One-Pocket). I have won some pretty huge games...including two against Janette Lee at a somewhat local hall. Ok, we played 12 games...but not too bad. :D
Hehe.

Ah, cool. I never really studied it, and at first glance it looks like a baseball cap. But it is just an inverted picture of a pool ball. Cool.
