Your previous Avatars?

Post » Sun May 13, 2012 8:42 pm

What were some of your previous Avatars? Everyone on the forums seems to have some sort of deep meaning behind their Avatars and I want to know what each one means or meant! Post your old avatars here and tell us about them!

Here's the last Avatar I had before my Capitol one, it's the Mockingjay from the 3rd book in Suzanne Collins' Hunger Games series. I'm rather obsessed and love the concept of the Mockingjay! :D It's the symbol of rebellion against the Capitol but now I realized I love the Capitol. :)

Ponies, and more ponies. Some people do seem to have deep meaning behind their avatars, having them for years. Me? I switch once every week, if I like it alot I may not switch for 2 weeks!

All ponies all the time. For a while before that, I didn't use an avatar (this was before a blank avatar defaulted to the current "Look at me I'm a noob!" image). A while before I went inactive I used some kind of bearded Ariel thing that I don't have anymore. I didn't switch regularly, but I never had a real defining avatar like a lot of members have that I can remember.

Oh, let's see.

I had http://i.imgur.com/SSMFy.jpg for quite a while, http://i.imgur.com/tTq1F.jpg and then http://i.imgur.com/DjEaz.png before my current one (Kyle Hyde). There have been a bunch of others, but those are the ones I've stuck with the longest I think.

I've had this avatar for as long as I can remember. Before this account my avatar involved Mr.Bean's (rowan atkinson) head jumping up and doing a spin and going back down. My name was in the background.

I went with a few previous ponies but before that it was a load of Skyrim avatars. Before Skyrim I was not much of an avatar guy so I rarely used them. I stuck with the default ones the forums provide for you.

Here are the ones I can remember:

http://vometia.com/images/avatars/av_dragonfruit.jpg: er, it's a dragonfruit, slightly wilted, posing on my chopping board.

A curious http://vometia.com/images/avatars/av_teapot_90.png taken in the enormous treehouse at Alnwick gardens.

http://vometia.com/images/avatars/av_firebucketxmasxmas100.png that used to live at my partner's dad's house. Sadly, it's gone missing.

http://vometia.com/images/avatars/vomsketchtiny.jpg drawn rather hastily on the back of an envelope. Said envelope has now been lost.

http://vometia.com/images/avatars/vomsketchxmas.jpg what with it being the season of excess at the time.

http://vometia.com/images/avatars/vomsketch2tiny.jpg.

http://vometia.com/images/avatars/toyvom120.jpg, realising my eponymous character unintentionally looked somewhat like her.

http://vometia.com/images/avatars/xmastoyvom.png.

Er, I think that's about it.

Well, there was http://i40.tinypic.com/x1ghsn.jpg from Demon's Souls when I first got here. There was http://i44.tinypic.com/dr9m5e.png from Super Street Fighter 4. There washttp://i44.tinypic.com/15cbmub.jpg in Morrowind. There was the http://i44.tinypic.com/1zn4qo6.jpg done by Lady Nerevar.

I think I've had a couple more but I don't remember.

I remember I had a Zero Punctuation one for ages, more recently it's been one of two Justice avatars, which is what I use in most places now.

Quite a few of them. My most recent was a different photo of Syd. I've had several of http://www.lovine.com/hobbes/wonderland.html I honestly don't remember what my first avatar was though.

Before that, it was a picture that I made in MS Paint that just said in bold black letters

I wanted to do http://chzgifs.files.wordpress.com/2011/09/batman-and-a-hotdog.gif, but it was too big and could not size it down enough.

We shall not speak of the first avatar I ever used regularly on these forums, and instead shall speak of the second one.

http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q235/Lomoru/MaiAvatar90x120.jpg, from the Anime Popotan, the video game of which has a small clip in the opening which accounts for fully one half of the http://www.hongfire.com/cg/data/25/caramelldansen.swf.

I have several variations. An http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q235/Lomoru/Aug5th3-2.jpg (back with it was just 90x90), a http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q235/Lomoru/ai.jpg, and a http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q235/Lomoru/MaiAvatarTest4.jpg.

It was only very recently I decided to crop and size my current avatar, Princess Luna from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, Season 2. I like it, but perhaps one day I'll fall back onto my old staple.

I had http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b285/rogerhughtaylor/Avatar/darkwatch2.jpg when I first joined and for most of my "Morrowind" days. There were a couple of others for a short period when I first became a mod but the bear has been with me for nearly all of this time.

This is my previous avatar, been using it since 2001.

I believe that you had a South Park avatar at one time. ;)

I've have multiple avatars over the years, at first I think that it was Celtic style triangle, then I had some using my MW chars, a few holiday specific avatars (< look over there), and at the end of the month I'll go back to http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y76/Caultus/featberandmonoc.jpg Then http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y76/Caultus/thecrowcover.jpg is the one that I used for years, I'm surprised no one has complained about me not using it anymore, as it was part of my personality for so long. :shrug:

Way too many. As my username suggests, I named it after one of my Oblivion Characters, an Argonian Librarian called Turns-The-Page, so my early avatars were all reptilian.

http://i485.photobucket.com/albums/rr212/Qeros/sham.jpg - 90s Girl Band Shampoo. It was part of an experiment to see if putting underage girls in your avatar increases your number of profile views. It does.


My current one is the statue of Reman Cyrodiil, one of my favourite emperors from TES, and he looks just like I thought he would.

Generally speaking, I wish people wouldn't change their avatars, ever. I usually look at the avatar instead of the name, it's easier to remember by the avatar for me. When people change it, they become a new person all together to me.
