What are your avatar pics from

Postby sylentknyte » Sun Oct 31, 2010 2:50 am

A lot of you guys have DP's that Ive always been curious about. A lot of the time I have no idea where they are from. So what are they, random pics, from a game or TV series? How are they significant to you.

Mines Spike from Cowboy Bebop (although I'm sure you all knew that). He's my pic because when I made my account here was when I was watching Cowboy Bebop, and Spike of course was my favourite character. Ive changed it a couple of times, but I figure I might as well just stick with it.

It's a picture of me. I come from England where there is no sun so that's why I'm so pale.

But no it's Kyle Hyde from Hotel Dusk and Last Window. Some of the best games on DS. Think I may need to a change soon.

Zack de la Rocha, singer from Rage Against the Machine, taking pictures with a Nikon camera with a mental look in his eye.

I was gonna change it but the picture suits the board style so well and I can't find another that will be just as good.

At the moment my avatar is the main character from the game Cybernator/Assault Suit Valken for the SNES. The picture is swiped from one of the endings.
I'll probably change it to another SNES or Genesis character pretty soon.

EDIT: Oh, and I just slightly changed the topic title so offhand it's a little more obvious what it's about. So's ya know.

Right now it's legendary japanese masked wrestler, and also anime-hero, Jushin 'Thunder' Liger.

This one's Tetsuo, from the movie of the same name.

And this one's Harry Stewart, one of the characters from Deadly Premoniton / Red Seeds Profile.

OL, you specifically had a couple in the past I was curious about. One was this asian guy with purple hair, another a black guy who looked like he had a space suit or something among others. Im happy you answered Crimson as your pic was one of the ones I was wondering about.

This one, probably?

Maybe not actually purple hair, but it's the closest I could think of that I've used before...
His name's Uruha, from a band called The Gazette. He's probably my favorite guitarist. People always seem to have something against pretty Japanese guys though, so I stopped using those kinda avatars.

Black guy in a spacesuit or something...
I'm drawing a blank on that one. Can't remember, as I've changed my avatar a bunch in the past, and I've deleted most of the old ones from my hard drive.

Okaly dokaly. At the moment there's only me and another guy representing Policenauts. (He's a lurker so his name escapes me.) Before Henry wussed out on us by replacing his Tony Redwood avatar. That's right, Henry.. I remember!

Yeah.

Tony is a great avatar for a troll to use (since he's very much like that throughout the game also).

My current avatar is York from Deadly Premonition/Red Seeds Profile. Off the top of my head I've also had ones for Gillian Seed from Snatcher and Ed Vincent from Last Window (Hotel Dusk 2). Had loads over the years, you sort of lose track.
