Why Did You Choose Avatar/Sig/Name That You Did?

[Gutted]

My avatar is invisible to the human eye lol

 

[Lost Soul]

My avatar is of my crush. Cato from The Hunger Games.

My avatar is a black dog.

It has several meanings.

1) It is a subconsious representation of my dog i've had since i was 8. He has black fur (turning grey with age). I love him.

2) It represents a dog which saved me in a dream when i was being attacked. I ran after this huge black great dane and he led me out of trouble in the dream. So I guess I consider my avatar to be a representation of an animal guardian of sorts.

3.) It is the duality of black dog and white dog in the indian parable. Negative emotions and states of being represent my black dog.

The parable goes like this.

"Inside of me there are two dogs.

The black dog is mean and tries to talk me into making the wrong choices.

The white dog is good and encourages me to make the right choices.

The black dog fights the white dog all day.



When asked by the friend which dog wins, the elder reflected for a moment and replied;

The one I feed the most."

I thought my first avatar looked like the cutest little ponce, with his darling curls. Apparently dude was some kind of smrt...

This is a shoe from 1851, that was recently on display at Northampton Museums & Art Gallery this year. I think it looks both wicked sexy and oppressive.

And I had to re upload my signature no idea why imageshack took it down...

 

[Retrospective81]

I got mine from Google image search

[Blush]

I made my own icon.

And because The Lost Boys is ******* excellent.

 

[ladyforsaken]

I love dream catchers and hope I could get one some day. I like how my avatar shows them in that manner, making it look like an owl. Got it from searching on Google images on dream catchers.

 

[EveWasFramed]

I found my current one on line - cant remember where.
As for why I chose it - because sometimes I really do feel like the Mad Hatter.

 

[constant stranger]

I am usually soooooo serious. On another site (whole different subject matter) my avatar is soooooo earnest.....I thought I should lighten up.
So I searched cartoon characters. This one is a Looney Tunes guy, Marvin the Martian.....he isn't even a real character, just sort of a prop for some story lines with Bugs, Daffy & the gang. Also, this image of him frowning with the tool, it's me: I'm a tool guy and I don't smile very much and I've felt like an alien in my own country since I came here from Hong Kong.

 

[Locke]

I found my avatar (and the last 2 I used), on a Persona 3 fan site.

 

[Bocephus]

Googled mine also. Just liked it.

 

[Edward W]

I keep changing mine, this is my current one. Mostly handmade with assests from google etc, or in this case a GTA V screenshot.

 

[annik]

Mine is a still from the film Le Petit Soldat staring Anna Karina at the moment. I've become obsessed with her. I found it in a google search of the film, can't remember what site it was on though.
