robh 27-06-2003, 09:00 If you've got one, why did you choose the image you did? Mo 27-06-2003, 09:21 I used to have a Scooby avatar but for some reason is just disappeared from here. Scooby is timeless. I used to watch it as a kid and now my kids watch it. The stories are all so naff and you know that there will always be the ceremonial mask removal at the end but its wonderful. PS Geoff if you read this why didn't you set me up the new avatar that I sent you????? Moon Maiden 27-06-2003, 09:26 I used mine a small fairly quiet intro as to what i am :D Getting bored with it now may change it Moon Maiden mikey 27-06-2003, 09:38 dunno really!! Just looked for something a little different, just changed mine recently. Mo 27-06-2003, 09:41 Originally posted by mikey dunno really!!

He made me watch the process so that I would learn, but my head was having one of those empty vaccum days when what you see goes into your head and right back out of your ears. Come to think of it, I was like that a lot at school.:lol: I do know we had to download a new programme. Maybe an idiot's guide would be useful? It's fun seeing what people put up to represent themselves and then comparing that to what they write. PaulTansley 27-06-2003, 16:15 Originally posted by spook1210 I can't figure out how to get one *sniff* Neither could I, so i asked Geoff. Cost you a pint though.

She's my world and im showing her to everyone! :D Foxxx 29-06-2003, 18:22 I thought mine suited my name Foxxx! :) I used to play final fantasy and called one of the characters Foxxx so I looked for a picture that was similar. Some people may think Foxxx deserves a more x rated picture, but Its all innocent really! marie1951 29-06-2003, 18:38 i dont know how i get the pic with my name i keep looking but dont see how to do it can anyone help me with this thank you :D spook 29-06-2003, 18:49 Ha! I've done it! kittykat 01-07-2003, 10:56 I dont look as good when im in a tiny square, but my cat looked just as pretty as she is in real - and i love cats - and im often in sheffield and didnt want to be recognised in case i say something people disagree with. Belle 01-07-2003, 15:55 Well it is a virgo - same as me. I really wanted an avatar that had movement but didnt know where to find one, although at home I think I have a kissing mouth somewhere on my PC, maybe I should search it out. I should say I havent seen the word "avatar" used anywhere other than on this site max 01-07-2003, 17:55 fyi The word avatar comes from the Hindu faith to describe the earthly manifestation of the god Vishnu on earth. t020 01-07-2003, 22:58 I couldn't think of anything else to put as my avatar so settled with this. It may change soon. PS. I've noticed since the, ahem, improvements to the site that when you open the thread, not all of the avatars load. If you right click the error box where they should be and press Show Picture they load though. It shouldn't be doing that. RPG 01-07-2003, 23:12 all avatars work for me :? might be your ISP? Nutronic 02-07-2003, 02:16 Originally posted by DaBouncer American Psycho is one of my favourite films and I like the pic! But thats the matrix? Nutronic 02-07-2003, 02:26 Anyway mine is a character from the old movie TRON, i loved to watch it when i was younger. Im currently downloading it now aswell :D for my younger members of the family ov course!:P Ant 02-07-2003, 03:21 I chose mine because I was once told by an ex bird that that photo makes me look like a mad monk with evil eyes. So I gave life to the eyes and murdered my ex. :evil: DaBouncer 02-07-2003, 08:56 Originally posted by SheffieldLive But thats the matrix?

Is it two sleeping badgers with babies on their backs? :loopy: Sidla 21-10-2003, 13:47 They look more like sheep to me. max 21-10-2003, 13:47 I assumed it was sheep, what with him cycling out to Derbyshire all the time. Belle 21-10-2003, 14:43 Arent they panda bears with babies?? Or am I stating the blindingly obvious and you were all being silly? - one is never entirely sure Funke88 23-10-2003, 04:00 I liked cycleracer's avatar. Bring back the cycle man. An avatar becomes a person. I see Cycleracer as the man on the bike. Simple. Now I see him as ........??? Not sure. Where did he go? Funke88 25-10-2003, 04:20 Days later and we still don't know what Cycleracer's avatar is?? The panda bear with babies idea is looking like a possibilty. Come on Cycleracer explain. My question is, Why? :confused: Fletch 25-10-2003, 10:20 i think its a baby panda bouncing on its mums back!!

My brother, however, does look a bit like him and is totally into loaf, leppard and the like. Maybe I'll ask him for tips next time I see him, or pretty_woman, our resident meatloaf expert, could fill me in sometime ?

I think im suffering from the same obsession...been more than fifteen years now, and no sign of a cure :( Or an overdose :wow: My avatar is the Hulk - which is appropriate on account of my incredible physique. Or maybe my appearance on a sunday morning. qazitory 10-03-2004, 21:36 Mine is David Bowie, as I like him :) fuzzy 10-03-2004, 21:42 Edd - You leave my boobies alone. :nono: Maybe that is why you are green. :D Edd 10-03-2004, 21:47 Hehehe...i cant take my eyes off your avatar fuzzy :P Much nicer than my man-boobs anyway :mrgreen: GazB 16-03-2004, 07:36 Erm..

Oh and he's wearing my Doc Martens (full size) but you can't really see them. oh well. mr craig 16-03-2004, 22:56 Mines pretty simple really. GOD HATES YOU!! :P kittykat 16-03-2004, 22:59 My avator is an amalgomation between me and a cat. jackthedog 17-03-2004, 08:53 I got rid of mine.

The web site I got it off was shut down and now I don't know how to do it. So I'm stuck with this one. No problem though I like it. Haven't really made too much an effort to get another. The ones I choose are too big and I can't reduce them as I don't have the software. So Super Woman I am.

I've got happy memories of seeing her in Manchester a couple of months ago. :) The number of times I've seen her at the Apollo at the end of that dreadful walk from the station! Always worth it though. I saw my first Tori gig when she played the City Hall around 1996. I was 16 at the time and though I didn't know her at the time, my future bride was also in the crowd! Nowadays I tend to get the strangest of looks from the little teenage girls who seem to think that they invented Tori when I go along to her gigs...most people don't think that a six foot three bloke with long hair and a beard can possibly be a fan. Let's just say she has broad appeal! KookyKoo 28-07-2005, 10:28 you see that's what I love about her gigs, the fans are all so different.

CockneyMafia 13-10-2006, 15:21 I would love to say my avatar is of the best football team in the world, but even the most parochial of us football fans has to succumb to reality eventually. So, far from being an avatar of the best football team in the world, it is actually an avatar of the best football team in Kidderminster. Kidderminster Harriers to be exact. We ply our trade in the Nationwide Conference and could generously be described as "a bit crap". Being a Kidderminster fan, you get to travel to places such as Southport, Northwich and Gravesend. Thats why I follow Kidderminster.

"Charles Martel" "He is best remembered for winning the Battle of Tours in 732, which has traditionally been characterized as an action saving Europe from the Muslim expansionism that had conquered Iberia. "There were no further Muslim invasions of Frankish territory, and Charles's victory has often been regarded as decisive for world history, since it preserved western Europe from Muslim conquest and Islamization."
