How did you decide/get your avatar?

[Piccolo Daimao]

I've recently gotten into Fullmetal Alchemist, and after having read up to Volume 9 of the manga, watched both anime, both films, most of the OVAs, and all of Brotherhood's "4-Koma Theatre"...I decided to change my avatar to that of Envy, my favourite FMA character (or, at least, tied with Alphonse, Alex Louis Armstrong, and King Bradley).

[Gonstead]

My current avatar is snipped from some fan-artwork.

The expression Gohan is making was too good to pass up.

[Sinestro]

Sinestro of DC's Sinestro Corps.

[Metalwario64]

Been watching some Namek stuff lately, and remembered how much I always loved Vegeta during that arc. I thought this shot was awesome, so I made it my avatar.

[Majin Steve]

My avatar is a pic from my trip to China, on one of the peaks of the holy Mt Hua Shan.

[Ketchup_Revenge]

I've watched SGT Frog lately, and I love Kululu. He's such a Chuck Huber voiced asshole.

I'm up to the SSJ Goku vs Freeza stuff in my re-watch of DBZ so I thought a Freeza avatar would be neat. I've also always thought this drawing of Freeza was pretty cool.

[DanTheBib]

I was hoping to come across one of those avatars that, whenever you see it, you think "oh, that's [that guy/DanTheBib]" without even noticing the username. I did a random Google search for "Pikachu a", and it came up with "Pikachu Avengers". That, I had to see.

Aside from Dragon Ball, Pokémon is one of the many big things I like. Saw Pikachu crossed with Thor, and had to have it. Fantastic.

[Hellspawn28]

My new avatar is Belial when he removes the Armored Darkness's helmet.

[Ryuman]

What better way is there to express my following of the series than Gohan derping around on the internet? Gotta love the '08 Jump Special (In either form).

[Ringworm128]

So far Laxus is one of my favorite Fairy Tail characters.

[Nex Carnifex]

Someone posted a bunch of weird Frieza images they made and this one was funny

[MDSTSSJ]

Gogeta from DBZ Movie 12 because it has a menacing look!!

[Gyt Kaliba]

After sticking with Kaboom's awesome artwork of 'Super Oob' for a long time, I was pretty content to keep it...until I saw this new shot of Kuririn from Battle of Gods. Not perfect (especially not scaled down), but it still screamed 'AVATAR ME, AVATAR ME NOW'. Who am I to resist it's call?

[Insertclevername]

After beating Dragon Quest 8 a while ago in January (a game I highly recommend to JRPG fans alike), I felt was about time to change. I was going to go with a manga scan of 16 year old Gohan but it didn't work out since I can't get a good scan that's quality wasn't crappy. But after looking through the avatar thread I saw Piccolo Diamao posted a while ago some Ultimate Battle 22 artwork avatars. I saw Great Saiyaman and it will suffice.

[DBZGTKOSDH]

Bills looks awesome in that new shot, so I made him my new avatar for now.

[Scarz]

Couldn't resist.



I'll probably change it back to my previous Oolong avatar after all the hype of the new movie dies down.

[Insertclevername]

Okay...last avatar change for a while...

I just custom made this one from the panel of SSJ Gohan in volume 36, re colored him with black hair (for the "Ultimate" effect), colored his skin and gave the sky some color.

[Attitudefan]

My avatar finally changed!! wow, it's been like, what? A year I think.

From an awesome sketch of The Undertaker to one of the best gifs (first gif avatar I ever used too) I have ever seen. Shawn Michaels being cool before it was cool to do it back in 1998!

Gotta love it.

[sailorspazz]

Couldn't resist silly Vegeta face! I've switched to the hilarious looking expression Vegeta makes in the Battle of Gods movie. Grrr, I wish I could see this movie NOW!
