I'm just curious, what made you pick your Avatar?

I picked mine because its a badass Vault-Boy

P.S I know this forum was made several months ago, I wanted to see opinions as well as poll data.

I picked my old ones because they said something about me. I picked my current one because I think that it looks badass.

its anonymous! it signifies what it means to post on a forum at the beginning. no one knows who you are, you are completely anonymous.

It was a mistake in an Image Processing Lab session at Uni.
Thought it looked unbelievably bad ass/cool so I saved it.
That is actually me.

Because Simon is the best character in Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann. He has the most character development, becomes the most GAR and can make a 10 light year tall mecha out of sheer manly spirit.

I thought it would be too self-indulgent to have a self-portrait, and I'm never really happy using premade ones from well-known series, it sort of feels like an admission of adherence to herd-mentality. There's also my complex about copyright, therefore for totally irrational reasons, I shyed away from using a random image from a search engine.

So, I used a photo I took of a statue at a local graveyard... so now rather than being self-indulgent, ultra-conformist, or legally infringing, it's just plain ordinary pretentious.

Because Viewtiful Joe was an amazing game.
It used to be Ulquiorra in his released form from Bleach.
