As I go thorgh some of the discussions, I see many different people responding... What I've noticed is that some people have very interesting picture (avitar) next to their name... What does yours mean? How (why) did you come to use it? Mine supposed to be a bear claw... Supposed to mean strength & stability... Was your picture just a ramdom pick of the moment or did you put some thought in to it? *** I know some have their own 'self portraits'... Same question, why did you come to use that particular picture of yourself?

I don't know I just really like Spongebob. I hope that my future husband can make me laugh as much as Spongebob has made me laughl. If I'm sad I could look at him and remember some corny episode of his and I cheer up somewhat. It's a really nice avatar and I really like his smile.

Yeah that's one of the things that always made me laugh. He has these annoyingly funny laughs that will make anyone laugh. I mean you really must not have sense of humor If you don't laugh when he laughs. But yeah he really is hilarious.

Ok, if I ever try that, somebody should smack me upside the head & tell me "What the hell were you thinking?" Bull riding, yikes!!!! Closest thing I came to bull riding was at a bar down in Florida once, on my vacation, & they had one of those mechanical bull... I lasted all of 12 seconds... I guess I should be glad my day job doesn't involve live animals, eh?

Hey, you only have to stay on 8sec. before you hit the dirt to win. And there is not enough money in the entire world to get me on a bull and i would have a fit if one of my sons wanted to do it. But i love to watch it. I swear it looks like potery in motion when they do it right!

ha ha ha... Really? 8 seconds? But then I'm sure there's a huge difference between a mechanical bull & a real one... I'm sure I couldn't last 3 on a real one... Besides, I think that the guy who was operating that mechanical bull was going easy on me, being it that it was my first, and the last, time I ever done something like that...

Why this avatar?(well as of this post, why this avatar?) I really like not just the avatar but the images of the character. This is Kaede Fuyou from the Visual Novel (later made manga and anime): Shuffle! I like looking at it, and I've found several neat images to use as avatars. To some extents it can be a representation/reflection, but mostly I like how the imagery looks and how artistic it can be. Its also something nice for all of the other members to look at. I wonder how this avatar is faring in the eyes of the community. Previous ones were well received. Before this I used a character from Otome wa Boku ni Koishiteru (Translation: The Maidens are Falling In Love...With Me). Before that I used a different Shuffle! character, Lisianthus. I had used the Mirror Universe: MACO insignia for Halloween. And the first image I used was Aerith Gainsborough from Final Fantasy VII. The avatar could change soon enough. I have plenty to choose from.

Mine is from Sevendust's recent album. I wrote a review for it on Roughedge.com and I liked the pic because it shows a guy with his hands on his ears and they are bleeding. It also has a Parents Advisory label meaning...well you know what it means. It goes along with the terrible things I hear and don't want to listen to. I like yours and I always look for it during discussions.

Mine was originally a scan of my face when I was playing with my scanner. Due to lack of artwork to promote my music project, I imported it into photoshop and made some edits, then imported an inverted and edited logo I had drawn and scanned and threw that in there. I'm using it now because it was the first pic I encountered when uploading a new avatar pic. I have a few other ones that I might dig up in the future when I feel that this one gets old.

Ummmm... Dude...!!! Your picture screams, "Terminator"... I'm sooo sorry... I don't even know you, ha ha ha, why am I attacking this guy?, but anyway, it's not a bad thing... I'm telling ya, your picture should have been the one to be put on a cover of "terminator" movies... I really didn't know you could do that with a scanner... By the way, please don't kill me...!!! lol..
