After talking about screen names it got me thinking, why did you pick your avatar?

I'll start the ball rolling. Mine is of me posing in a chromed up smart car...

A fortwo was my first car and I still feel an attachment to them. Plus I think the pic is cool :D
 
This will be an interesting thread.. I've always wondered why alot of people on here chose their avatar's..

Personally the reason for me having mine is the fact its me.. driving a zed. Can't get much more befitting than that.. And the fact that it annoys quite a few people on here is even more reason for me to keep it :D

So for all you haters, here you go...

Can I jump in early and warn that this thread might temp a certain regular poster to re-publish his hairy ar$e tattoo shot. Might be worth a :topicclosed: just to save everyones eyes!

Mine's just lazyness, use the same on Twitter etc. and nice and simple like the user!

who could you be referring to?
 
Mine's actually the logo* from the 2007 Singlespeed Mountainbike World Cup (SSWC07), held that year in Aviemore. I like it because I'm a singlespeeder (a mountainbiker who rides a bike with only one gear) who attends these events, and i'm quite obviously Scottish (although not ginger). Plus I think it's cool: sort of represents a Scottish singlespeeder taking over the world :). I like the chainring instead of a sporran!

* It was designed by a person called Jo Burt (mountain-bikers will know the name from the Mint Sauce cartoons)
 
I picked mine totally at random after watching an episode of celebrity juice which had me laughing so hard it hurt :lol:

Before this avatar I had a road sign avatar with a twist....

Scary and possibly prophetic.......

'I'd like to share a revelation that I've had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species and I realized that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment but you humans do not. You move to an area and you multiply and multiply until every natural resource is consumed and the only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You're a plague and we are the cure.'

Hence my Avatar :?

I can't watch Lord of the Rings - also starring Hugo Weaving - without thinking back to The Matrix: "Mr Anderson..." - such a well played role IMO
 
I guess the subject of our discussion is also having lunch as I have not seen him yet :)
 
I drive a Z, love it's lines and like this shot in full-def, but got fed up trying to size the damn pic in such a way that it's a nice sharp image. I duly gave up, hence the Fuzzy Z Wing Shot :roll:
 
hmm, I can vouch for that. He clashed terribly with his car, no wonder he had to sell it :rofl:
