Annoying or Cool BCUK Avatars - Discuss But Without Being Rude!

[Everything Mac]

strongly animated ones can be annoying but there are no really annoying ones on here.

mine is just a pic of me on exercise.

it always used to be a frame from the hitman game.

Avatars and signatures personalise the internet. They also allow us to share a little bit of our personality with the world. More power to them!

I take it that I upset someone!

I apologise, no offence meant.

Actually, that was me going OTT and complying with TeeDees request of creating a bouncing chorus line from the picture.

I apologise

No worries, it was definitely *animated* though
Animated, distracting, commentuponable.........
Thank you for your understanding of my Modding though, it's appreciated


cheers,

I guess we won't be using that one then

I don't like having avatars that show pictures of me in them as I'm ex forces. However my gf found my avatar pic and said it was the spitting image of one of the black and white pics in uniform that my mother has. It is pretty close, but what really narks me is everytime I step out of the door and some clever oaf asks me where my Tardis is. Had a bunch of girls shouting at me from over the road last Thursday.. David!! David!!! OI Tennant!! I really need to get my hair cut. Three years I've had of this, can't wait for the new bloke to start.

I like the various avatars on the forum. Much more tasteful than on some.

 

[oetzi]

I decided, as a fan of Sout Park, on a whim, and because being a hun, to change both avatar and signature.

 

[Toddy]

Did you find a make yourself a character site ?

Quite a few of us used one several years ago, and I still recognise them when they pop up on the forum.

I keep expecting something Mad Scientist-y from you It's the frankenstein bit I think.
Flaming torches maybe ?

cheers,
Toddy

I happened to stumble over a site showing all the different costumes Eric Cartman has worn in all the episodes.

There is something for everyone!
Maybe next time it will be the Scout.
The Frankenstein theme, now thats an idea!
But will I be the Doctor himself or his creation?
There are soo many to choose from:

Look at this one. Damned sure this'll give you the heebie jeebies after subliminal late night viewing...

Mines a painting i did. Unfortunately it makes most people assume Im a bloke till they meet me.

 

[John Fenna]

The hair colour is wrong as well.....

But at least you didn't use the one of the elephant

Terrific work BTW.

I don't like my avatar, and keep meaning to change it.

 

[Shambling Shaman]

Yeh some avatars really annoy me. Especially ones that have sci-fi characters in. I mean how childish is that?

I thought it was a photo?

but album covers from Jethro Tull and the worst, imo

 

[Klenchblaize]

Guess I'd better say something so here's my TOP TEN:

01. Wild sleep: Because of the possibilities therein.

02. Saddle Tramp: Tricky one so I'll simply say I dig the image and note the irony.

03. Stig of The Dump: Helped nurture a seed when forced to read at school.

04. Space Monkey: Friendly and makes me smile.

05. Wallenstein: Reminds me of my last avatar.

06. Big Bad Stu: There had to be at least one Green Man!

07. Stovie: Clearly a little contrived but I love the message.

08. Clem: Not sure why!

09. Cael Nu Mara: Makes a statement without fuss and reminds me of "Shoreline Deerstalking" with FCS.

10. Toddy: No commentary required. (Do though feel free to award me house points!)

Oh, and before you ask I couldn't possibly be persuaded to list my Top Ten most hated!

Cheers

Stumbled upon this thread when serarching for something best not mentioned. Didn't find it but this post brought me up sharp but who does enjoy a reminder time waits for no man and nothing is for ever despite the claims of the Internet!

Whatever happened to all those avatars and members??

Kind of makes me sad.

Ah, folks move around. Some still visit, though quietly. No fall outs, and they'll mind and cheerfully say hello when you bump into them again
At least half of the folks who posted on the original thread have visited the site in the last few weeks, if not day.

The forum's getting old for these kind of things, that it's still here and still busy is testament to the people who've been involved over the years, the things that interest them and the knowledge they share.

[Toddy]

Technically the details are right but the reality fails
