Switched to the DS Pokémon style Beerus avatar I mocked up. Can't keep the Christmas one with that being over.

Felt like it was time for another avatar change, and I've been holding onto this one for a while now. Kuririn's gotta strut his stuff every now and then after all.

Had this for a while as my Skype icon and with my recent viewing of Rebellion... self explanatory :P

This one was custom made for me by a friend. It's my... erm... "animal avatar" from way back then (a lot of people took upon themselves to call me panda), in Freeza Army/Saiyan gear.

Was watching an episode of Batman, then came a scene when Batman, Batgirl, and Robin were trapped in the Siamese Human Knot, and noticed Batgirl was making sexy faces while Batman was trying to find a way to get out of the knot. I guess she really enjoyed being tied up to him. So I took the sexy faces she made into a animated gif and fortunately it became a perfect loop. I think I'll be sticking with this avatar for a long while.

Edit: Due to Jason Voorhees appearing in a Radio Shack commerical during the Super Bowl, I have now made an avatar of him.

I've decided to just have this as my avatar permanently or at least a long while

Raditz is great and I really wanted a picture of him that showed off his arrogant personality.
Thanks to SSJ God Gogeta for the avatar.

The avatar I currently have is of the band Propaganda. I was reading the Kenji Yamamoto retrospective on the main Kanzenshuu site when I read about Battle Point Unlimited and Kenji's intermixing of three Propaganda songs to create that piece of music for DBZ. I looked up the bands original songs and really enjoyed their music! So now I decided to make a picture of their band my avatar and I like it because it's still somewhat relevant to DB at the same time.

They've changed my life - changed the way I act on the earth. Doesn't that make them kind of real? They might be imaginary but, but they're more important than most of us here. And they're all gonna be around here long after we're dead. So, in a way, those things are more realer than any of us.

Thought this was one of the best simpler Vault Boy icons that wasn't the scrapped Child Killer perk art. So I haphazardly colored it and voilà.

On a bit of a Gundam kick again lately, so I made a portion of the second intro of Wing my avatar for the time being. I chose Wing because it has some of my favorite Gundam designs, and I get nostalgic for it, even if it isn't the best.

I got my avatar because I really like old-school Hip Hop (it's pretty hit and miss nowadays), and Big Pun (abbreviated stage name for Big Punisher) recently became one of my favorite MCs. He's got one hell of a flow.

Goku didn't die in GT. The show sucked him off so much, it was impossible to keep him in the world of the living, so he ascended beyond mortality.

I always side eye the people who say "Now my kids/today's kids can experience what I did as a child!" Nigga, who gives a fuck about your childhood? You're an adult now and it was at least 15 years ago. Let the kids have their own experience instead of picking at a corpse.

I looked up "Metallica and Dragon Ball" in Google images and found this gem xP. Heavy metal and Dragon Ball are two of my favorite things so I just had to use this as my avatar. :thumbup:

Been feeling like it was time for an avatar change again for a while now, but nothing was really striking my fancy...and at this point it almost feels weird not to have a Kuririn avatar of some sort on here. Then the 'director's cut' for Battle of Gods aired, and I saw a video of the intro and saw this little gem. Couldn't get any screencaps I took myself to look very good, but I knew I must have this shot as an avatar.

Then I saw Tanooki's screenshot link in the main BoG thread, and wouldn't you know it, he had just the shot I need to make an avatar with. Victory is mine!

Edit: I only just now realized that Yajirobe is totally photobombing it. Damn you fat samurai.

Welp looks like Cm Punk isn't coming back. Moving on now! However there is still the GREATEST ANIME CHARACTER WHO HAS EVER LIVED! Goten in his best attire. I love this attire so much. I wish it was in video games or someone could mod this attire in. It's badass. Also fits in because Goken is Goten's son :) .

Okay, avatars on these forums are really not easy to upload. First off, you can only upload a picture from links and not saved files? Secondly, only 100 by 100 pixels? That is so small I can't even find picture links that small of dimensions. So I used a program to shrink my picture and opened it in a new tab so it would have a link and well check out my avatar for how that worked out....

Seriously, can somebody explain to me how to upload an avatar?

Make sure the image is of specifications. Upload it to an image hosting site (I recommend Photobucket or Dropbox). I assume you know the rest. As for why it's not working? Perhaps you need to either reupload it or try a different site?
