Lucy and crabbieness go together

I have a travel mug that has Lucy on it with my sig on it

**Jihforce** · 01-17-2002, 08:33 AM

mine is cyclops from the xmen. I just picked it because I didn't really like any of the others. I'm still waiting to use my own avatar.

**Markel** · 01-17-2002, 08:59 AM

Mine is a work by M.C. Escher. I've always liked his work. This was one of the few that could survive the "avatar criteria" and still look like anything.

**sho.gun** · 01-17-2002, 09:00 AM

mine looks abnormal... I like abnormal... I am abnormal

Here's my story.

**Grimm** · 01-17-2002, 11:21 AM

Well I Just wanted something that suited my personality. Evil, malicious, evil, and intelligent. 3 out of 4 isn't bad...

You forgot to start with the standard disclaimer, "Forgive me for stating the obvious, but...."

Hi I'm Troy McClure! You might recognize from threads such as "Have Beers with Female Coworker?" and "Dammit mah, don't touch me there!"

I like most am a huge Simpsons fan as well as a Phil Hartman fan. Nobody else took this avatar that's why I took it.

**ZrEo0** · 01-17-2002, 11:56 AM

for now its just a random one i liked, once i get my custom, ill get one of zero from megaman

**whitak24** · 01-17-2002, 11:56 AM

my avatar was picked because i didn't have too many choices, and all the stock ones were either taken or i didn't like them. i'll get a good one when (if) i hit 2000.
besides, my avatar loosely resembles me -- you know, two eyes, nose, mouth

**Loki** · 01-17-2002, 12:49 PM

It suited my alias best.

**theorangeone** · 01-17-2002, 03:29 PM

because my secret identity is superman!
now i'll have to kill you all for telling you that!

but really, cause my real name starts with the letter S and i didn't really like all that many of the avatars.

**BrewMaster** · 01-17-2002, 03:36 PM

i love Bass Ale so jujubees made this avatar for me off of the Bass Ale logo. the cow thing was my old avatar that she incorpoarted into the new design. i love cows too, so for a long time i was the only one with that cow on there as my "stock" avatar. i love my custom avatar. it's very "me."

**Ladogaboy** · 01-17-2002, 05:23 PM

This one is the only one I could find that remotely ressembles me... when 2K rolls around... then we'll see for real.

**Nanotech9** · 01-17-2002, 05:39 PM

its the headlights from teh car i own

Oh that had me ROFL

Mine? I like dogs (and don't even think about a "me, too - they taste like chicken!" reply...)

**molecularfire** · 01-17-2002, 06:11 PM

This is kinda off the topic, but how do you go about setting up an avatar?

**Memo** · 01-17-2002, 06:25 PM

Well, we really dont have many choices. I don't know why they make us post all the way to 2000 to get custom avatars. It sort of promotes postcount++ and retarded posts, I think. I liked the Peanuts when I was a kid though and Linus sort of fits my personality the most. I used to have a little blue blanket too

then everyone would have all of this custom stuff but they wouldn't necessarily be "committed" G|Aers. this way, those who have been around a while on the forums get "rewarded" for their loyalty. that's my take on it at least.

**Memo** · 01-17-2002, 06:39 PM

Brew, I'm guessing that's the GAMs intention as well. But if the people aren't gonna be around a lot, then we won't see their custom av anyways. And 2000 post is quite a bit.

**ChrisMG187** · 01-17-2002, 06:43 PM

Because who doesn't like Groundskeeper Willy?

Eventually at 2000 posts, you can create a custom one.

like just one? or can you change it too?

btw, i can post 500 in my sleep. heck, they'd prolly have more wit
