New Avatar

[mizal]

Someone was seriously scared of a picture of a zombie? Pff. Zombies aren't scary.

...Usoki, your current avatar is though, and I'm not even sure why. I vastly prefer the evil plant thing in your profile.

Anyway after reading this I decided to get an avatar too so enjoy the magic rainbow pony! My only regret is that with the picture shrunk down this much you can't properly appreciate the sparkly rhinestones on her butt.

[Usoki]

Yes, well- by this point, I'm just having fun going through my old photodump folder and finding all of the things which are passable as avatars.



The site I found it on had it labeled as a 'man encased in ice' photo... but the more I look at it, the more it looks like a guy trapped in a dress shirt box. It explains the banner across the front, and the odd position of his arms.

Alright, I've kinda narrowed it down:

Waldo

Sweet Tooth

Pi

Acoustic Guitar

Michael Cera

I know you'll be disappointed, Usoki, but I just don't really identify myself with "bubbly" or "overly-social" people. Maybe I'm delusional when it comes to myself? I don't know. I'd like to use a cool politcal figure, but the only ones I can think of who really stood for anything good are Ghandi, Jesus (if he existed), and Einstein -- and they wouldn't be unique.

For better or for worse, it has to be one of these five, I think.

I think the goatse would be a perfect avatar for you to use.

[Ryan_DuBois]

I had no idea you thought so highly of me, DEP.



We will see. We will see...

[End Master]

Sweet Tooth or Waldo are fine with me. I prefer Sweet Tooth for obvious reasons though.

Usoki still needs to go back to that plant/bear thing. The trapped in ice guy and his current giraffe avatar are hideous looking.

While we're at it, Apoth should go back to his Hydrolisk avatar, mainly because I can't draw a damn sandwich properly in MS Paint.

[Ryan_DuBois]

I don't know... I kinda like the sandwich. If nothing else, it's unique (at least at IS). And it tops that one russian guy or whatever he had for his first avatar.

[End Master]

He had Saddam Hussein as his first avatar.

[Ryan_DuBois]

I knew it was either him or Stalin. Couldn't remember which.

[Usoki]

Hideous? Aww... I was hoping for an unsettling combination of cute and creepy. It's the eyes, methinks.

[End Master]

Your current avatar is a lot better though

EDIT: This was the first avatar I had before I switched over to my current one.

[Usoki]

That's...wow. What is the giraffe doing there? Is he barfing pea soup, or is that some sort of mutant mouth lazer? Maybe toxic breath lines? The forehead tattoo is a nice touch- though putting pupils in the eyes seems like a set backwards. Especially since there are no angry eyebrows. Angry eyebrows make everything better.



I am fond of this current one. It's a tempting switch, but in the end I have username recognition with the Deku Shrub, and I'm hesitant to throw that away. After all, I'm a few months shy of my four year mark (!) and I've been using the same avatar all this time. It's close to representing the Usoki translation without being the translation.

That's... a very odd avatar, End. It just doesn't feel like 'you'. The background is nifty, but the silhouette is very odd- what with the dress, hip accents, and shoulder pads.

...Seriously, four years? Cripes! Rentyre is three and a half years old. I have accomplished nothing since leaving high school. Pathetic.

[End Master]

Lol, its supposed to be a wasteland warrior type (from Fallout) wearing patchwork armor which makes the silhouette odd looking. I think a few people though the character had a fake "shark fin" on his back for awhile.

I had this one very briefly, but I switched it back.



I'd imagine that unless there's a hooded figure of some sort involved, the avatar won't really work to represent "me". The only other kind of pic I could probably get away with is something like this:

[Ryan_DuBois]

I thought you used to have this cartoon-looking picture of like... I think it was a boy with his back turned? He was looking at some weird electrical thing. All I remember for sure is that there was a lot of blue in the picture.

Might've been someone else...

[EDIT]

Usoki: Since you hate them both and don't really care one way or the other, I'll ask you for the final decision:





Sweet Tooth is badass, but Waldo is hip.

Sweet Tooth was here first, but times have changed.

I don't know.

[End Master]

For the little boy with the blue background, you're probably thinking of this guy:

EDIT: Just put Sweet Tooth's face on your current Waldo avatar.
