And, of course, the opposite gender fad... One which we had to get in on...
Heh. This is why love your avatars. One question, though: they're two guys that dress like girls... so how can the opposite gender apply to them? nyo
Faith is what credulity becomes when it finally achieves escape velocity from the constraints of terrestrial discourse- reasonableness, internal coherence, civility, and candor. Thus, the men who commited the atrocities of September 11 were neither cowards nor lunatics of any sort, but Men of Faith- perfect faith- and this, it must finally be acknowleged, is a terrible thing to be.

The oldest one I still have on my computer is:Image

Last year, my hair really was Burgundy and Pink. Had to change it for my new job, my new boss didn't like it. He's old... I hope he keels over or sells the store soon. He was the only person who didn't like it.

This one I had until just a few months ago:Image

yeah, and you thought my current one looked innocent.

Current:Image

ok, this is actually my DA avatar, but I'll share it with you because I love it:Image

They're all there. Sadly, the same who were guessed the first time.
So...the rest are either super-obscure artists or very poor impressions. :P
Sadly, more probably the second, cause they're all artists I've heard of, and I'm no art student or something.
I'll actually finally reveal it any day now, I kinda promised it long ago.

Well, Enoll, there's one going right now.
Not everyone does them, though.
And they're not always 'official,' sometimes someone'll just copy a theme from someone else's avatar, and then... it goes downhill from there.

I've had waaay too many avatars, and I haven't kept track of any of them.

Since I've been posting in forums since the year 2000 and have been the fickle person I am, I've had a kajillion sidepics over the years. Yes, I still call it sidepic because I started out posting on EZBored, where the term 'avatar' was unheard of.

Some might seem outlandishly large, but that's because the tolerance level is different at different forums. Please note that this is a rather small selection rather than a comprehensive list. I've had way too many to keep track of.

This beauty was taken from two screenshots of FF6 in ZSNES, using a Super 2xSai filter if I remember correctly. It may well be the avatar I used the longest.
http://members.cox.net/brpxqzme/avatar-929.gif
Only used for a short while, as a little gag. It became popular because more people found it as time went on.

When the forum I frequented introduced warning levels for misbehaving members (I'm usually considered one of the sanest people on the forum. Huh.), I changed my title to "Warning Level: Kimchi." Anyone familiar with the Korean side-dish knows what I'm talking about.

From Metal Gear 2. In case you haven't noticed already, very few of these are owned by me, although in most cases I went to pains to make these for my own personal use.

The real version of my current avatar. My current avatar uses a font so durn small you might never decipher it. But you can't really make a font smaller than that without rendering the text completely undecipherable.

Current avatar at the forum I frequent most often.

Current avatar here. Only here for archival purposes =P
http://members.cox.net/sfghq/moon.gif
Perhaps the only avatar I've had that even borders on insane and obscene. Incidentally, it's also one of only three avatars I've ever had stolen....

Having fun with Scale2x. Before it was popular.

These next few are among my oldest ones. I'm also not sure if they will work. The reason I no longer use this host is because they disabled offsite linking, requiring me to start using something else. Lucky for me, we got a real ISP around this time anyway, so now I can hotlink away if I want to.

Beats me.

My first avatar ever. *sniff*
http://brpxqzme.netfirms.com/image.gif
Having fun with 2xSai. Wait. Or was it the other way around? I don't remember. Probably was the other way around. Either way, this one is older. The two came one after the other, and about the same time Netfirms decided to disable offsite linkage.

My second avatar ever.

That's just a sampling.
Is cleaning up after your past self dishonest or just prudent?

I'm not sure, but I'm doing it in hopes it's the latter. [Signature deleted.]

These are all the ones I could find on my HDD, I'm sure there are more ^_^

-- and I left off three different versions of my current avatar for the sake of easy cropping (one as a ninja, one as a pirate, and the other as a cyborg)

I'm not sure I saw the cyborg...

and where's the one with a spoon?
You are the Non. You must go now, and never return."

"1.Scan in high res 2.tweak with curves,levels or something to clean up the scan (or use channel mixer to remove blue pencil lines) 3.Add colour using a layer set to multiply. 4.Add wordbubbles and text as vector shapes. 5. Merge all layers. 6.resize to the web size. 7. Export/Save for Web" that's all I know about webcomicking.
