I have a soft spot for Iamonlyhuman's Avi, the whole concept and the content she produces makes this world a better place!

Lol, I agree.. she's beautiful, eh? My kids see her and can't imagine why I think that. Oh well, they've got a lot of growing to do I guess.

Mine's actually from the cover of the March 2007 JSA comic - the character is Starman. The original artwork was by Alex Ross:

Starman's history

I originally created 3 different avatars using similar Justice Society characters, but I decided to go with Starman - his look just fit in with my interests...

...2 sections from that issue featuring Starman:

I love it! I really like the green and black one also.

Any questions?

I love your avy heineken,lol very funny, a good laugh in a sometimes too serious field. My avatar is basically a representation of multiple dimensions existing within each other, some larger than others. Basically meaning that there is always more truth than meets the eye-There is always something to discover and we are small on the scale of reality.A lot is beyond what we can comprehend. Good thread!

Is that a drunk alien you have there Heineken?


I have to get me another one soon I have trouble making up my mind on one.

My avatar is a custom emblem I made for my car a while back. It was orignally taken on an old moto razor phone so it's pretty crappy resolution but it represents me I suppose. I think I worked harder on getting the lettering to stay black with a neon green eagle than I did the car and engine work sometimes so it makes me feel proud. I've never seen another talon on the road with an emblem like that so if you see it, you'll probably be seeing a fellow ATS member

Mine was really easy took about two seconds. I got dressed (took forever for hair) and then posed : ) lol

If I could make the one I want I would but I dont have any idea how to do it....Its a dream I had and I would like to turn it into an avatar someday It involves, aliens, tourists and the Eiffel Tower...oh and a UFO : )

well mine is my favorite picture of frank zappa, my hero.
it is my permanent avatar as i never change it

I'm one of those who bore easily with their avatar. I started out with KITT from the now cancelled remake of Knight Rider, then Scooby Doo (before the member of the same name), then a variety of comical pictures. But as of late, I've been using Spock Avatars, due to the constant reminder to check my emotions and use logic while in heated debate. It doesn't always work, but apparently it has other benefits... Someone put this in the comments section of my profile page: "Just want to let you know that your subtle mind-game is working flawlessly. Because of your avatar, I read all of your posts in Spock's voice. One does not argue with Spock." I can live with that! So far there are two in the collection, but I'm sure more will follow...

I just made mine today. It's the first one I've done since I came back to ATS/BTS so it might be a little rough. It's from a Victoria Frances picture and I chose it because I like it and because the girl has similar skin and hair as me. But, I plan on making many more in the near future because I love avatars and I'm sure I'll get tired of this one pretty quick.

I actualy made my avy lol i used lightwave hypervoxels. and why?
CUZ IT LOOKS KEWL WOOOOOOOOOTT

I changed my avatar today from the old neon green eagle...

It was also my first attempt at photoshop lol. My UFO there abducting my car now has the old logo =D I thought it a bit clever... plus the Polaris emblem from my subaru in the sky.

Gif animation created in adobe imageready.

A wonderful character from a fantastic film (Freaks..1932) and worthy of an avatar.

Some folks don't like it....but it always makes me smile.

And Pinhead always has a smile on her pretty face too.

We cant all look perfect, to all those who don't like it I say: get used to it, it's called being human. :-)

"We accapt her one of us".

I chose the name Seventhdoor on a whim, but it does embody certain beliefs I have about life and the freedom of choice. Then i figured I would make my avatar a door of some kind, and came across this photo, which I felt embodied my quest to find truth and light, as well as being anonymous.

Well I love watchmen and the one im using now is ''sally jupiter'' aka ''silk spectre 1'' from watchmen, played by the gorgeous carla gugino.

I love her costume design and that old look she has with her hair, I just think she looks fantastic.

I put a cartoon filter on her and changed the background color to black, so nothing special, 30 second job.

I usually have ''V'' from ''v for vendetta'' but wanted a change so there you go, expect v to return in the near future.

I don't think I have gone a week without changing my avatar lol. I have gone through so many. My current one 'The Gecko' doesn't have too much meaning, I think that the plain white effect give's it that 'room-for-thought' feeling.
