I picked mine because I relate to Nightcrawler. People fear him because of his appearance when he's really a good person. I sometimes wear typical hip hop fashion and when I do, I always fear that people would think I'm an ignorant wannabe gangsta when in fact I'm a intelligent, good natured person.

My avatar changes all the time, but here's the story on the current one.

I'm a fan of Robert Hamburger's "Real Ultimate Power," so ninjas are somewhat of a recurring joke among my friends and I. I also love collecting and studying firearms, so I drew a ninja holding a Colt 1911. That's all there is to it.

A 1911 is a good thing to have Blasty. Danielismyname also likes them. :D

Ay, I do. Nothing has improved on it, other than adding more [smaller] rounds, or more of the same that ruin its ergonomics.

I'll keep this avatar, as I'm eagerly awaiting the Covenant to arrive and then burn this planet to cinder. We infidels deserve it.

I like mine because I think it's spooky, something about the birdcage.

I use this avatar for various reasons. One is I like Star Trek. Second I am a sci-fi freak. :lol:
I read in one of my many AS books that people with AS relate to Spock, Data, or 7of9.
I have generally thought I relate to Data, so I selected him as my Avatar.

Blaze the Cat, Sonic the Hedgehog character, purple pyrokenetic reminds me of Angnix, which was a superhero alterego I created in highschool, a pyrokenetic who wore purple. Plus like me she's shy and had no frienda for yeara and was teased cause she was different.

Did you used to have that TV avatar with the lines that went across the TV with a message in that TV? I can't remember what the words said, but do remember an avatar like that.
