I was in middle school when Mega Man 3 came out. Zero was a badass back then, and still is now.

I would just like to point out that is Protoman (usa) or Bluesman (japan) not Zero.

Mine is Marlon Fraggle; because Fraggles are awesome and the episodes with Marlon usually involved him trying to become ruler or leader of a cult. I found that interesting.

Thanks for clarification.

I chose mine because it's the only part from the Star Wars episode of Robot Chicken that repeatedly cracks me up...

It's full metal alchemist. So the reason would probably be that I'm an anime geek.

Because this is all a bunch of hellery...and I constantly change it for lack of a truly fitting avatar(Those who have noticed would know).

Several people commented that I reminded them of this Phoenix Wright character. I made a recolor myself, but a friend skilled with Photoshop made this version for me. :>

Because I love my Wii and I love Transformers. Besides, wouldn't a transforming Wii be awesome? When you want to play two-player, but all your friends are busy, *beep* *boop* *vreeenk*, and you've got the second-best gamer in the house.

Because Legend of Zelda is the best game series ever.
Officially, that is true. It surpassed Mario in popularity a while back.
What now! Take THAT, Mario!

CHIKARA is pretty badass, and Ophidian is pretty much the biggest badass there.

Therefore, Ophidian is my avatar.

Well, I have a fondness for the webcomic Questionable Content which once had a poster like this one in the background. I needed an avatar for somewhere so I took it upon myself to use my very poor art skills to draw my own version, and so here it is! Plus, I do love coffee.. coffee is great..

Until recently I had been DJing a net radio show called Uncle Zanky and the Zombie Monkeys, so it was a good avatar choice. I should toss some holly on it.. hmmm

This is my fourth retelling of this story.
If you watch the Making Of segment for the Pixar movie The Incredibles, you'll see a character maquette that bears a striking resemblance. He would've been the villain, but he was supplanted by Syndrome. (An in-joke was Syndrome being based on Director Brad Bird, but by the time he got the joke they were too far into production to change it)

This is also the first iteration out of I think four avatars where the pinstriping is visible after being scaled down. The original size of the picture is 2000x2000, so 75x75 doesn't do justice.

corroded:
Well, i feel it symbolises me.

Humour and joviality.

the monopoly guy:
I'm thinking of changing it to the search button.

Humour and joviality.
Unless you're serious, at which I would retort that if you did you would be fired as the Editor for Half-Fortress.
Yes, we need more meetings, I am aware the last two comics sucked.

Mine is Benjamin Disraeli, alluding to a Family Guy jokes where he proclaims "You don't even know who I am!" which I feel is appropriate, since no one on the internet knows who I am either!

There are only a few publicly-accessible photographs of the RAK human avatar present on the entire ARPANET, for it is not the policy of the Avatar to display photographic evidence of his existence to any site.
