I was looking for something to use for Halloween and, for some reason, this funny person with a blue glove turned up in a search for orange mittens. I couldn't resist.  I'm always sort of curious about why people choose the avs they have...why they change them or why they stick with the same one. |

That's from Blink 182's album "Enema of the State"
My dad played that record on repeat for the entire summer when it came out, lol.
Me, I'd like to change avatars and have fun things but I usually figure people know me from my avatar and not my username so I usually think its easier for others if I dont.
Also, I never know what to change too. :P
Edit: OH MY GOD I DID!!! *panic mode*

I just played with the forum avatar tool until I got something that couldn't look any more ridiculous.

Do you look like that person in real life too orangemittens?   My Avatar is my BakieGaming Logo I also use on youtube and the wooden sign without the background is my Subscribe-button too I only will change it, if my youtube sign would change, but I don't think that's going to happen. Though my banner IS going to change if a new ps4 game comes out and I'm going to make a new series about that one too. Then I will mainly be focusing on The Sims 4 and That particulary game I think and my banner will only be showing those 2 things too. But there's still no release date, only rumors. It could even be coming out oct 27!  But you are curious about why people choose their avatars, but I'm also curious why people choose their names. Although andrew, is just the name of this person I quess? (Going to make a separate topic about forum names right now!) |

My avatar is me and the guy I was/am (it's complicated thanks to me) seeing. I am a big BBT fan and seeing as we both look a little like Penny and Leonard I thought, why not. He likes it too. Hes the drummer I'm the science geek with many Leonard/Sheldon tendencies so it works. My name I've had since 2006 I think, it was true at the time and I keep it in case people want to remember my stuff and I'm too lazy to think up a new one. |

It's also on tv here in The Netherlands. |

Thank you Bakie, I like your avatar too; it's very peaceful (I love all natural things). Yeah the av is funny, after 4 years we are still in the Penny & Leonard /4 month relationship mode, *not sure what to say, weekends spent in bed watching TV, eating take out and sorting the World's problems, arguing about everything concerning science (I win) and everyday life (he wins).* I do love his Goth thing though. Hench my recent creations and why I'm having such a hard time with it as I'm such a girl |

My avatars almost always have brown hair, because I do. Eyes, too, but I LIKE the purple and gray eyes in the game, so sometimes I might use those instead of brown for a simself. THIS one, although younger (no gray in HER hair!) and prettier than me, is actually a fair representation. The hair is Kiara24's sideponytail and the tshirt is from FrankVjecy at MTS. Love me some tie-dye!
I'm using this av here, at MTS, and on officials. I plan to stick with it till I get bored or struck by some "ooh shiny!" new thing. But this hair I bummed from sabreene at officials (saw it in HER av there! LOL), because I DO wear mine like this a lot.
As for my nickname, yeah, I used to play Warhammer (and WoW of course). I was on Sims2 boards as egwarhammer. When I got back into gaming after an absence, rather than make a new email I just dusted that one off, partly because it doesn't scream "girl!".
Great topic!

That's a purty hair! i might have to go pick it up myself Elissa Pickering! I've never played Warhammer at all.. But I used to play WoW 24/7, for like 2 years before I quit. I remember we used to play on Molten, a private server.. Now it's called Warmane, since the servers got hacked.. (or corrupted.. Can't remember, lol) D: My avatar is of a Sim I just made for a sample in my most recent thread!(shameless plug ) I love how she looks all warm and snug in her scarf ;3 |

My avatar comes from the so-far-away year 1995 (even if I am only fifteen), from the first pokèmon game (looks pretty lame, i know)!
It's just the sprite of the ghost in the pokèmon tower in Lavander Town, even if it has a deeper meaning to me.
[ - If you see my Studio's logo, it has a ghost as well. - ]
The truth is that i called myself "Ghost" because sometimes i feel like i'm transparent and a little bit of insignificant (yeah...)but I don't wanna be boring or annoying, so i'm not gonna tell you people that much xD
