Yeah, I admitt, I didn't like Goobla's interpretation either, kinda too much. But it was still funny because we kept mixing him with KKB and I was actually thinking: "Why would KKB make such avatar, it's offensive!"

Precisely, like one of thoes punk'd/tricked TV shows.
I hate these things. I'm can't wait till one of the teams meets a real looney that kills them all.

Maybe Goobla is actually Ashton Kutcher and this whole trading avatars thing was to have us all PUNK'D

You're right! Goobla probably is Ashton Kutcher!

my username is the Japanese goddess of the moon that I wrote about in one of my fics a while ago ^^;; My current picture is of Michiko, the main character of my webcomic. Other avatars that I've shuffled through is a dragon that I drew for someone's tattoo, Mike Shinoda of LP and a drawing of a character from a book that I've been writing off and on for two years.

BeefotronX · Post by **BeefotronX** » Mon Feb 23, 2004 3:21 pm

Name: I'm not sure where I got the name Beefotron X. I think it was first the name of an android character in an RPG. Then I just tended to use the name for forums and games and so on. At about the same time I was drawing satellite cows (realistic robo-cattle with various techno-gizmos coming out of their backs).

Avatar: Totally irrelevant to the name "Beefotron X". Just a sort of crazy dude who wears goggles frequently, perhaps Jewish. Never developed really into any kind of story, though.

Terotrous · Post by **Terotrous** » Mon Feb 23, 2004 6:23 pm

Name:
I was originally going to use "Gnik", and my regular avatar, (see below), which I use in most everything, but I spelt my Email address wrong and it got sent to someone else.

Not wanting to wait a week for it to expire, I decided to just register something else. The character I thought of first was the newest character in one of my stories (nothing to do with my comic), Terotrous.

It's an odd choice, considering that Terotrous is one of the bad guys and I don't act like him at all. He's very spiteful and totally focused on his one goal, getting revenge on the hero.

Avatar:

My original avatar was a generic hero model from the game version of this story. However, it unquestionably wasn't Terotrous, as Terotrous wouldn't ever be that cute or happy. Next came a Santa version of that avatar, which I was too lazy to change for many months. This new avatar is actually Terotrous, in all his evil glory.

Somebody say Marx?

On both questions...I'm crazy. Hoobily boobily boo.

Tim · Post by **Tim** » Tue Feb 24, 2004 11:07 pm

Huh huh huh...you said "boob".

My name, Tim, I named after the character in my comic, Tim. Who I named after me. Pretty original, huh?

My Internet alias is LZorro. I wanted to be "a" zorro, not "the" Zorro, so I used the definite article (and made it cool by dropping the E), instead of being "UnZorro". I'll leave it to you to figure out why I picked that particular word.

My avatar is of the previously mentioned character of Tim. At least, it will be once I get a little time to properly edit the av.
