As a tangent to the name threads,
Does anyone want to share who, what, where or why about thier avatars?

I owe it all to MOON..because I'm from Florida, I wanted something tropical. The two I used before were taken by others so I asked her for one that reflected me. I believe she gave me a half dozen or so to choose from and the one I chose, thanks to her, fits me to a T !

Mine is a very long story. Wiz started a thread about Andrej the androgynous model. Some said Ewwww! and some said Nice! I said nice to the boy looking pictures and Tough Times gave me a hard time about it and how I like pretty boys and girly men. She also wished testicular cancer on me (after Apple suggested it-LOL!!) and then said I had big balls and even posted the Big Balls video for me after I teased her about looking at my balls. She kept bringing it up on other threads so I decided to make him my avatar to completely drive her mad. ;D I think it worked. She's been MIA since. <------ Andrej with his girly look.

Mine is a big stack of board games. Or a couple stacks...? I haven't actually seen it in a while. Cause I like board games, and we were thinking about opening a game store. I'll change it at some point.

Well, I didn't want to insult you in case you thought the pic wasn't flattering. I think the person in the pic is gorgeous.

I had my dog, my house (which is no longer going to be my house), and various apple-related pics, one where a racy snow white had an apple tattoo, but then I got in a really, really crappy mood one night (over the house that is no longer going to be MY house, but maybe someone else will want it) so I don't have an avatar anymore. Some day when I'm not leaving the house at 5:15 AM and getting home after 6 PM six days a week, I'll change it back to "something". Did you know today is Thursday? I just found out, all my days have started running together, just like summer when you're a kid, but way worse because I'm at work.

So, inspired by this thread I changed mine. I went to google images and searched for dark honor. Some gal on deviant art drew a my little pony named Dark Honor, and that's the cute little bastard there below my name.

I knew I wanted an anime girl of some sort. So I went looking through some of my favorite shows. This is Faye Valentine from Cowboy Bebop (awesome show!).While she's not my favorite character, I did like this look. I also considered Hawk Girl from Justice League or the Major from Ghost in the Shell Pretty geeky, huh?

I have been fielding inquiries as to whether my screen name is based on "the Chive" website, since the website started getting popular. I use this screen name pretty much everywhere I go online, with a couple different numbers based on whether my preferred number has already been taken (78 isn't my first choice, but it transferred over from MSN where I couldn't use my first choice). for the record, I've been chiver long before "the Chive" has been around. I guess you could say I'm the original Chivette in any case, I was on a cruise back in May and I saw a guy leaning over a deck rail wearing this "the Chive" t-shirt, and I had to take a pic. since I can't really post Bruins avatar in the face of an NHL lockout, I think I'll be keeping this one for awhile.

I either live in a world of semi-bitter pracality called " Real Life " ( boy today was a long work day -- all of the effin' flu shots are editing out in our Disaster Crap new program, and I get to fix a whole boatload of them. Do you know how many flu shots a Tier 1 hospital system manages to inject into the general population ? Many, many boadloads full ).....or I live in a semi-fantasy world. There are no flu shots there that need to be corrected for place of service....I am a big fan of LotR ( Lord of the Rings ), and kind of like the dark side of it, so my name on here originally was NazgulGirl, and I chose the appropriate avatar to go with it.
Lately, I've been more mellow, so Ichanged my name to Seagul Girl Flies Around for awhile. But I still like my bad-ass avatar.
Edited: I just changed my name again for Halloween. Now if I could just find an avatar that has the NazgulLord riding on a flying pumpkin or something.

That's who I based Dark Honor on
