If its been done... sorry
Now we know what your name means, but why did you choose your avatar? I chose mine because its of BM off of nuklearpower, which is a very funny comic that is a spoof of Final Fantasy. BM is my fav char in it. -------------------- |

I have had lots and lots of different AVs, but my favorite ones were my Nightmare Before Christmas ones and this Peter Pan you see.
I looooove Nightmare Before Christmas. I loooove Peter Pan. Therefore...Av goodness! Yeah, sorry, no real story. *shrug* I'm just a movie whore. -------------------- I wish I knew what you were looking for...under the Milky Way tonight.
* Good-bye, Dayan. May angels lead you in.* I reject your reality and substitute my own! I want so badly to believe that there is truth that love is real. |

Uhhhhh well....the bf and I have been dling a lot of fairy pictures, partly because we love fairies and partly because we're both artists and really enjoy good art. A few of the pictures we dled struck my eye as being exceptionally beautiful; this one is a rendition of Titania, queen of Faerie...I can't remember the name of the artist but her stuff is incredible.
Most of the avs I have are either things I've drawn, things I've made in Photoshop, or, like this one, pieces of art I admire. Plus, it's nice to have a face so pretty next to my words.....makes people think that maybe I'm pretty too!  .Mom: the first time I saw the av you have right now, I thought it was from the Shining or Firestarter or something...looks spooky!! Dad: You mean people think you look pixellated and maniacal?  hehehe. My daddy kills schoolgirls

my [crappy] avatar is becuase I uploaded the pic for my webpage button on deviantART and since it was already on the internet, chose that one.
I thought about choosing my av from DA, but it would be more random. I should get a more animated av like Cheese's... animated=cool. HighlyFlamable.com is the webpage. The webpage. -------------------- I hated my old signature. This is far better.
My deviantART page Highly Flamable.com (my [awesome] webpage) Jeeze.. this isn't better. |

Because it's Willy Wonka. What more reason do you need?
-------------------- Every sort of expert knowledge and every inquiry, and similarly every action and undertaking, seems to seek some good. Because of that, people are right to affirm that the good is 'that which all things seek'...

This months av was chosen because I liked the way the girl looked when I found her pic during a search for pics that I like. Then the way I altered it and made her look was kind of christmasy in my own little freaky way so I used it for December because of that. Next months isn't so scary though, but it's still me.

Y'know, if you could send that to me i'd greatly appreciate it, as it was hella stylish....Anyway, you can't beat some old skool Turtles. So, I found the avatar, and really liked it. I expect i'll be sticking with it for while. After that, probably something to do with Vega. Because he rocks also.

QUOTE (TigerLily013 @ Dec 29 2003, 09:55 AM) Mine is something I made on my paint program (a rare talent owned by few) lol...obviously you never went to Excite's Virtual Places while it was still around. Everyone and their dog could paint in there. There were some bad ones...but most were all pretty good. And it was a community of thousands of people. Paint programs are easy to master. Anyway...my av. Tis a chicky babe from FFX-2. I just thought she was pretty when I saw her picture, so I chose it. A lot of my avs are FF related. If not pictures from the actual games, then they're fanarts...usually. Every now and then you may catch me with a manatee mailbox or the death whales, though...because they rock. -------------------- I love you in a way that is mystical and eternal and illegal in 20 states.

I'm almost always an anime character, usually from Haibane Renmei or Serial Experiments Lain (yay Yoshitoshi ABe). But this month an unusually happy anime is making a guest appearance, this one's from Tokyo Mew Mew. Arguably the catchiest opening song ever.
