Mine is a portrait of Maj. General Frank Merrill. It is just an homage to one of the great military leaders of this nation.

I think it speaks for itself.  I'll probably change it before too long.

Well, for those that don't know, mine is the carving in the side of Stone Mountain. It is of Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson, and President Jefferson Davis.  I picked it because I am from Georgia, and it is one of the few truly deserving memorials to Confederate heroes. 

I would love to have one of the Jefferson Davis Museum, but it is such a little P.O.S.  It is on the site where Davis was captured, about 15 miles from my house.

Mine is the character, Pam (played by Jenna Fischer), from The Office. It's one of my favorite shows right now.

I thought that was Katie Van Waldenburg.

What is it?

What does it mean?

How did you decide on it?

If you don't know, I can't help you. :tongue:

Nice chance to post whore, though. :evillaugh:

It's Lil' Bush, from the Comedy Central cartoon that pokes fun at Bush and his administration.

I saw the pic on the net the other day and decided to snatch it.  I'm kinda moody when it comes to my avatar, I'll probably change it again soon. 

I have seen one episode of that show, and "Al Gore" made an appearance on it when I was watching...he was a turd, and he said, "I'm made of corn and almonds!"
That show is hilarious.  I love 'Lil Cheney.  I was gonna use him as an avatar right after the show came out, but could find anything.


rahrararhararaha.

He's hilarious, I like that show too.

And here you go:




As for my own avatar, I found a couple of pictures of redheads that I liked and I resized them to avatar size.  I also have a couple of South Park Miss Mia's. 

I used the legs at CU for so long.  I thought I'd change it up.  No one really cared for the Evil Bert that I had so I went back to something still "sexy" but different.

I use a different avatar at DU.  I've had the same one over there forever now, but I like it and no one else is using it either.

I like being able to change my avatar on a whim.  You never know what might show up!  The holidays are always fun as are the seasons. 

I like this one because it's teh ghey!   :gay:  Seriously, spring is my favorite season and I'm really happy (not gay!) right now with the birth of my granddaughter and several other things in my life.

Oh, I agree.  I usually don't change my avatar all that often, but I've thought about starting to switch avatars when holidays (or my birthday :p ) come around. LOL

What is it? Its the Helicopter used on the TV show Airwolf

What does it mean? Just a picture is all

How did you decide on it? I figured it was better then some other avatars that generally come with signing up on web sites and the other ones I have used are already up on other sites like Agent Smith from the Matrix and Stonecold Steve Austin for instance.
