    So... what's the story behind your avatar? Why did you choose your current or past ones?

    I just got a new one on Friday....yay! ZZ helped me size it. It's my little boy playing with a plastic sword. I chose him because everything I do revolves around him.


    Handsome, ain't he?

    Mine is Mae West.
    As my on-line personality evolved I felt this avatar suited it.

    As my marriage to my fake lesbian love interest Go? approaches I'm thinking a picture of Marlene Dietrich might be more appropriate however!

    Changed to the current one which is a bigger version of the old one about a year ago.

    Dark City baby, it suits me.

    Well, there were only a handful to choose from when I joined up. This one didn't appear to be being used by anyone at the time.
    Just because you have the right, that doesn't mean it is right.

    I used to watch the Disney "Zorro" series religiously when I was young. Guy Williams is probably more responsible than anyone or anything else for my interest in (read "addiction to") fencing. I figured that paying him homage by selecting him as my avatar was the least I could do.

    I didn't pick mine; it showed up automatically after I reached 7,000 cool/rep points.

    Not sure what makes you seem more repsectable, this or the tick? I never liked Beavis and Butthead THAT much, and I thought the tick was one of the greatest ideas ever, so that makes me biased. But still, Tick rules.

    As for myself, there's not much to explain is there?

    I'm not completely sold on it myself, but I've had the other one up for a long time. Feels like it's time for a little change...
