Capt Grey Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 I finally found me a fittin' avatar. Arrr. Captain, we always knew you were a whoopsie. Rumors of my death are entirely premature.
The Touring Gentleman Posted September 21, 2003 Posted September 21, 2003 This avatar, what we call the "MI" skull, is an adaptation of an original crest/logo. It has been in use for about ten years, and is peculiar to a particular group of friends and associates. Only by great risks can great results be achieved. -Xerxes
CrimsonPirate Posted September 22, 2003 Posted September 22, 2003 Ye'll notice that me avatar be the same skull-n-crossbones in this image posted by GreyDog. I did a search on pirate flags and found mine. Can't remember the link, though.
Cap'n Coyote Posted September 22, 2003 Posted September 22, 2003 Since I'm in the Technical Support racket, what better avatar than a Software Pirate? Rumors of my death were right on the money.
Cpt. William Kidd Posted September 22, 2003 Posted September 22, 2003 Arrrr, ye scurvy scallywags, of course me Avatar was the booty of a darin' raid. We was sailin' the stormy stinkin waters on the internet, ponderin' what a fittin' avatar we could conjur up, when suddenly lightnin' struck the foremast and sent us right down the gorges of doom. Only the top of the mast an' tha lookout crowded with what was left over from me crew pointed towards the cloud-ridden sky and then - lightning struck yet again, this time right in side me brains (that bein' a hurtin' experience, I'll tell ya) and there was the thought, of me early European brethren, feared by (almost) all the wanky seafarers of their time: Red Beard, the pyrate from the Asterix comics - so Idecided to raid their memorial website, grab meself a wallpaper in the process an' cut it so it'd fit in here. An' now no more talking, hand me the mug o' rum Signed, Cpt. William Kidd
El Pirata Posted September 22, 2003 Posted September 22, 2003 My avatar came from my most recent return to Panama trip in August. It is of the Cathedral Tower in Panama Viejo destroyed in 1671 when Henry Morgan and his band of 1400 sacked the city. My pic in my signature pic came from San Fernando in Portobelo Panama. The fort was taken by Admiral Vernon in 1758. If you want to see a high res pic of the lower level of San Fernando click here. Pushing the limits means getting out of my comfort zone and giving more when I don't think I have any left.
Lumin Posted September 22, 2003 Posted September 22, 2003 My avatar represents one of my favorite things, theme parks and coasters. This is a pic of one of my favorite rides, The Loch Ness Monster, at Busch Gardens Williamsburg Va. The trains rarely interlock as shown in the picture so I took two pictures and later combined the images with Adobe photoshop. Another one of my favorite rides is "Pirates of the Carribean" but i did not have any pictures of that, savvy?
El Pirata Posted September 23, 2003 Posted September 23, 2003 Loch Ness Monster, and I didn't even have to read your text. From the look of the park nothing was torn down as I drove by there on Saturday and Sunday. Pushing the limits means getting out of my comfort zone and giving more when I don't think I have any left.
Blind Rhoid Pyle Posted October 6, 2003 Posted October 6, 2003 I just whipped mine up! Raided Clipart.Com, and added me deadlight shades. Not bad for a blind guy, 'eh? :angry:
The Doctor Posted July 9, 2007 Posted July 9, 2007 Found it, liked it, grabbed it. Yo ho ho! Or does nobody actually say that?

Cheeky Actress Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 Let see...Not a Pyrate, but hangs with 'em. (what am I doing?!) My persona is an actress/courtesan; therefore, I chose the Ancient Greek Comedy and Tragedy symbol for my avatar. Member of "The Forsaken"

Red-Handed Jill Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 Mine was inspired by the label on Sinister Hand wine.
HildeKitten Posted July 10, 2007 Posted July 10, 2007 Back in 2005 a friend of mine was studying photography and had access to his school studio. He was working on his portfolio, and I needed a portret photo for mine, so we did a photoshoot. My avatar is taken from one of those photos. I don't have any of them online I'm afraid, one of them is with my designer bio in my portfolio though :) House of Secrets Incorporated Fashion and costume design For all your piracy needs
