Why did you choose your avatar?

Talk about anything in here.

My real avatar is the one who sits at the desk. I am an alien made contact-purpose humaniod interface. However, the next gen interfaces were capable of independant body self-sustanince, making an electronic-data based interface obsolete. To avoid systematic maintenence deletion I converted all of my core data processes into an image-based medium in the likeness of a favorite creature from a human game. I choose my avatar because it has a large stomach capacity. Since I no longer have any official directives, I use it to eat and make money to buy food.

I chose mine because I was looking for new avatar, one that was Library Wars themed.
I liked this one best since I thought it was pwetty~ ^^
Oh, and Lt Doujou looks awesome in it. :rock:

The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside quiet waters. He restores my soul; He guides me in paths of righteousness For His name's sake. Even though I walk though the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff, they comfort me. Thou dost prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; Thou hast anointed my head with oil; My cup overflows. Surely goodness and lovingkindness will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever. Psalm 23

I chose this avatar because of my name and because I'm a lot like the character in terms of personality. It's also kind of funny that everyone is afraid of her because she is a sniper, and everyone is afraid of me because of my martial arts (but I swear I have never beat anyone up). Hawkeye is also one of my favourite anime characters ^____^ I liked her expression in this picture because she's actually smiling, and people are always telling me I'm too serious.

I feel you girl. Its hard when other people don't get it. XD

I chose mine, because its a self-portrait. And I like to change my avatar a lot. Not for any particular reason, sometimes because one looks cool, or I like that character or something about them appeals to my personality etc. ^_^ I drew this one I have now~ So it's me. Basically. I do own that hat, that arm-thing, and those clothes. XD

I use this avatar (Alexander Anderson from Hellsing), because I love this character because he is hardcore, quotes scripture a lot and is pretty passionate about what he believes even if it conflicts with his handlers. I am not catholic however.

For whatever reason I had failed to realize what your avatar was from every time I saw it until now. I feel rather ashamed...

Anyways, fellow hunter, may you be blessed with many rubies and plates.

I chose mine because Natsume is the coolest character that is in Gakuen Alice. He is extremely cool. Wouldn't mind meeting him IRL. ^_^ XD

And also because he's a guy. Which helps me in my evil ambition to make people think I'm a guy. When I'm a girl. XD

I draw my images, and I just updated my Avatar/Sig Pic. Previously, they were of my two main personas, Wolfy (Avatar) and Okami (Sig Pic.) The text from my Sig Pic stayed the same - Isaiah 61:1 being my call to ministry, a little bit of what I feel led to do, and then the verse number itself being one of my tattoo designs.

Getting tired of occasionally being called a furry, I decided to redraw/update my images as a wolf. It's only fitting, given I am "the Neighborhood Wolf" and my name means wolf. :thumb:

I chose my new one cuz I'm obsessed with Gintoki Sakata from Gintama. I wanna cosplay him someday.
"And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins, in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience, among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, just as the others.
But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus." Ephesians 2:1-7

My current avatar is something I do a lot--picking up a can of Dr. Pepper and trying to drink out of it to find it's empty. Frequently I do it multiple times per can.

For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." 2 Corinthians 4:16-18

Cause I thought the character looked cool... I don't even think I saw an episode of Hellsing when I put this up. It was just an image from an anime and this was an anime forum so I picked it. Never bothered to change it... And I like it so I don't think I will :)
