Shadow Fire Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 I figured I'd make this topic since, throughout a lot of my time maintaining this site, I have seen some pretty awesome avatars. So, I thought it'd be cool for us to explain the meaning behind them. Mine is actually my emblem for Call of Duty: Black Ops II. It was adapted from an emblem shown on a YouTube video. It's significance here is that as the site owner, I am keeping a watchful eye over everything. This is quite fun. Who would like to be next? =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conker Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 My current avatar is an awesome portrait I've found of Colonel Radec on dA. I added the Helghast insignia to it, though. The significance of it, basically, is to show my Killzone pride; I love that series a whole lot, and Colonel Radec is my favorite character from it.

SanguinettiMods Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 My avatar is a custom sprite that Satoshi Kura made for me. It is of my OC Lucas, and I take pride in showing it off. (1-1-13) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mellow Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 My current avatar is the character Wallace Wells, Scott Pilgrim's cool gay roommate from the aptly named graphic novel series, Scott Pilgrim. Scott Pilgrim has to be my all time favorite series of books, and out of the many great characters, Wallace Wells is by far my favorite. He's a smart ass, witty, drunk homosexual who has a distaste for pants. So essentially, he is me. --The More You Know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xdaniel Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 My current avatar is of Marii Buratei, a character from the anime Joshiraku which is (to quote MAL's description): "An adaptation of a manga written by the author of Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei about group of girls who discuss random things and usually reach an unusual or humorous conclusion that's far from the initial discussion topic." There's no particular meaning behind it, besides that she's my favorite character from the show - she seems like a fun person to hang around with, is kinda lazy (which I can certainly identify with), I dunno, I just really like her. I usually have avatars of some of my favorite anime/manga characters just because I like them, and, honestly, because the avatars are rather easy to make - take a screenshot from an episode, add some filters, do color correction if needed, add a border, done.

zaneebaslave Posted January 2, 2013 Share Posted January 2, 2013 My avatar is actually some type of troll... Goblin thing I created in 3d. It had no real project attached to it, it was just something I wanted to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blaze_Uchiha420 Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Mine is of Sasuke Uchiha's Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan (Naruto: Shippuden for those who don't know). The Sharingan and all of it's forms are my favorite Ninjutsu from the series and since my username is Blaze Uchiha, I thought the most powerful form of the Sharingan was appropiate for my avatar. Hope everyone likes it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Secant Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 My current avatar is a depiction of Hannibal Lecter as portrayed by Gaspard Ulliel in the movie Hannibal Rising, my reasoning being that Hannibal is my favorite fictional serial killer. If you haven't watched the movies yet, go do it (unless you lack a strong stomach); they're fantastic. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeathBasket Posted January 5, 2013 Share Posted January 5, 2013 My current avatar at the time of this post is this: http://i.imgur.com/tfMcO.jpg Looks quite low quality since I lack a scanner and don't want to walk a mile to use one just for one drawing. Anyway, it's a drawing I made of princess Zelda the other night looking quite sinister, I liked it so I set it as my avatar. I'm hoping to get some stuff set up soon so that I can make proper drawings on the computer because that is something I've wanted to do for a long time.

Netsrac Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Mine is actually a "The Last Story" (the REAL Final Fantasy 14) Walpaper. You can see the main Character Zael standing infront of the very first Boss (the Cocoon) while using the Outsiders gathering skill to lure the Cocoon to the bridge close-by. I chose this one mainly because I didn´t have any other, but also because Zael is the kind of guy who tries to make his dreams become true just like me.

LEepicPOULET Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 My current prof pic is Madotsuki with the knife effect from the game Yume Nikki. Not everyone who plays the game will like it because it is very different from most adventure RPG's, but I love it and it's free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samurai Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 Moriya Minakata, from the Last Blade series. He is quiet, highly intellient, extremely skilled, independant, compassionate, (though misunderstood often), and he is known as the Moonlight Samurai; even his sword's name is a reference to the Moon. I like dark themes, the night, and the moon. That's why I chose him to represent me. I may have been a samurai in a past life. I think of my guitar much like a samurai thinks of his sword, and like a samurai, I take practise very seriously. I think far more highly of intelligence and wisdom than sheer brute force. There's always a more tactful way to a solution than "cheesing it to death until it works right." I am The Shredding Samurai. Keep rockin', guys. ../ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xdaniel Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Changed my avatar, now featuring Tsurugi Yagami from Sasami-san@Ganbaranai - a 31 years old perverted teacher who looks like a loli, but is actually the goddess Amaterasu. Sounds weird? It is and I love it! Also, the artwork itself is fanart by NAMA on Pixiv. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
