Avatars...

[Squidders]

So, I thought I would change my avatar to the funny looking owl from Pixar's Bounding short... I had the old one for about 4 years or so and it was due a change.

I tend to just see something that makes me smile and pick it. What's your avatar all about and why did you pick it?

 

[Cheesy Blender]

mine is a little red cross for some reason.

 

[Harvestman]

I was always known as the absent minded professor in school.

That and I use this avatar on another forum, so it was handy when I needed one here.

 

[Toddy]

Mine's from the South Park avatar maker thing that folks used yonks ago. Somehow mine stuck around
It's supposedly based on the wee teacher, and in her hand you can just spot a wee knife The purple bunnet's a bit not me right enough, but the rest's kind of right

I like dexter's laboratory... and Southpark.

 

[Mesquite]

Mine's the Texas state anti litter slogan and as it's where I was born seemed apt to use

 

[Andy BB]

Mine's a pic from 2007, the evening that England beat France in the Rugby world Cup semis (or was it the quarter-finals?). wife took the pic just after I'd completed several laps of the Arc De Triomphe, flying a rather large English flag from the back of the bike....................

 

[British Red]

British Red after the endangered squirrel. The squirrel is sort of my "animal identity" - they make nice warm homes, live in scattered family groups, are provident and store up food for the Winter

My avatar is pyrography on leather of a squiggel that Lindsay did for me

 

[copper_head]

Mines me on top of kinder scout,

 

[WULF]

Mine is a wolf but do change mine quite regular

 

[Bowlander]

Me and my lad watching a glossy ibis.

 

[brambles]

Watercolour of "Calvin & Hobbes", a boy and his tiger enjoying the outdoors!

 

[crosslandkelly]

I just like Celtic knotwork.

 

[Niels]

My dog with the background removed

 

[woodpoet]

Mine is just Little old me.

 

[The Big Lebowski]

Mine actually looks nothing like me.

Maybe one day.

 

[presterjohn]

Mine is me in my old style gear of Norwegian rucksack, Swedish winter boots and repro German sniper smock. I don't do Camo gear generally but no one was bidding for it on ebay so I picked it up for a song and it fits over a fleece jacket really well and looks OK for the most part.

 

[resnikov]

Mine dates back to when I was in a online gaming clan in Australia playing battlefield 1942. Some other clan said something about us, our mothers and goats, so rather then let it get to us we embraced the goat as our clan symbol. So we all used goats as our avatars.

Someone else online offered to put the helmet on the goat and make it blink(cannot have animated gifs on here do don't use that one). It's stuck and its the only avatar I use. Recently got spotted as BCUK member on Twitter as they recognised my avatar.

 

[Zingmo]

Mine is a screen print on my old M39 moose bag. I copied it from a picture of a sami shamen drum.

Mine is from my last Op Tour in Afghanistan 2009, before being desk bound and BORED! Retired now so still BORED!
