your avatar

sometimes you get a really good pic and you use it to death. Especially if you hate 99 out of a 100 pics of yourself!
 
My dad gave me this cool military type cap when I was around 12. One of my cousins said that I look like Captain Kangaroo, but his brother said if anything I was Captain Elephant. Ta da! A nickname was born that stayed with me to this day.

I'm a musician and musicians are kind of cool, but elephants normally are not. So this is my homage to cool elephant musicians.
 
My avatar is a li'l manga-version of me - a chibi-me. It's where they caricature a character by drawing them very small.

I drew it when I had the buzzed-head & big-midcheek-goatee look. I'm not really all that surly, in spite of the look. I have a thick beard and curly hair now, so I'm overdue for a new one. I just have to get around to scanning the drawings and fixing them up in CS3.
 
Aw, shucks * blush * thanks for the nice comments! (siddykitty, djg, burnside1, no_strings, no_end) -- y'all are very nice looking yourselves, although I do tend to get confused about which string is which!:biggrin1:
 
I have been a Van Halen fan for twenty plus years now and they have finally got their collective shit together and are back on tour. Eddie is the guy that inspired me to play guitar back in the day and remains one my fav people (even though he pisses me off most of the time) I respect his talent and gifts and would love to have an ounce of his talent and emotion. The name Broken5150 is what Van Halen was up until a few months ago. Fans of VH will know what the 5150 means. Broken also has a second meaning to me, it is a subtle way of paying my respects to Pantera and Dime bag Darrell. RIP man.

Thats it.

Broken:biggrin1:
 
My avatar is the symbol of my state, the Zia sun. It was my very first and regular avatar, but I sometimes like to change it, usually for holidays. I'll be changing it for Halloween soon.
 
Lovebirds, like Mozart and the rose ... proof of the existence of Gawd.:cool:

My own avi is generic -- a close-cropped portrait of Justin Timberlake. While I'd like to bring sexy back, I actually chose it because I like the look in the eyes, le regard, si tu veux.
I perhaps deludedly tell myself that my own expression is similar.

You mean that avatar is NOT you? You've been fooling me all this time Rubi. Geez. Now, I wonder what you really look like. :confused:
 
i chose mine because i studied metaphysics for many years now.
my avatar is the baphomet.
i am gonna change it because it is "scary to some"
:biggrin1:
Really? I like this one a lot better than the goat head w/ pentagram. That was scary.

My avatar is a generic pic of me, smiling (which is rare in pictures!). The interesting thing... people tell me I don't look Indian (American Indian) but rather Latino. Interesting dialogue.....
I like this pic YAG, you have such a nice smile. I already told you, you look like a generic American east coast preppy.:biggrin1:

Either way, you're a handsome dude, dude. :tongue:

How dare you! I'll spank that wink and smile right off of your face, and then whip it back on! Boy, the things I'm going to do to you when I see you in person... should i supply the bandages?

Bandages? No, honey, let me bleed.

well shit, i try and i do ok sometimes. did you see No_Strings gallery? that's some stuff i did recently that was okay, i'm not thrilled with it.

Well I'm thrilled with it! It needs much more exposure and recognition, hmm...
 
I didn't realise Senor Rubi's avatar was Justin Timberlake and that's another problem I have with people using film star/porn star/celebrity avatars, I rarely watch tv so I often think that avatar is actually them, even when someone tells me it's not although I accept it intellectually I still FEEL it's them.
 
Mine is me below the waist and above the thighs. :) I just figured I would use my own picture that used the site's main subject. The all mighty penis. I just took a picture of it wet. That is as creative as I get.
 
French Bulldogs

Because I love Frenchies and want ,need, crave, desire, one, though my commitments mean I can't have one at this time- so these will do as surrogates.

What do they say about me. Characterful, endearing, loyal, different, not liked or appreciated by everyone, loved deeply by their fans....Me to a T.
