mega thread Why did you choose your avatar/profile pic?

<- Just look! LOOK I SAID! That's why! <333

Well, let's just say I couldn't resist how cute Dashie looks in this avatar.

Both dragons and sharks are so fascinating that I combined the two and made a shark amphiptere. While it might not be the cutest thing out there, I still feel like it represents me in a way.

 

 

My avatar is a character I came up with, named "ASTRO". His design was loosely based on R2D2's. If you squint, you'll see that his eye is copied from R2D2.

 

That's such a cool character indeed! Great choice for an avatar too.

Because Fluttershy and Pinkie are just too cute not be my avatar. Also PinkieShy.

I had just joined these forums this afternoon, and it took me nearly an hour to find a profile picture that would fit both the site's limits and my personality.

 

I'm not complaining though, as long as it gets the job done.

[CheeryFox 23,821]

Because the night and uber cuteness... 

[Kyoshi Frost Wolf 41,496]

My current Avatar, Shingeki No Kyoshi, is one I will be using for a looooooooooooooooooong time. <3 It is my first ever commission that I requested form a freind and he did an amazing job. It combines my Ponysona, Kyoshi, with Attack on Titan, one of my favorite shows ever. So yeah, I am loving it.

My avatar is a Fluttershy I drew in December 2015. I choose this drawing as my avatar because I love Fluttershy a lot.

 

Also, my avatar is also my signature. It took me some hours to do (3-4h more or less).

[The Diver 760]

Because I just got back from Alaska for work and my tender was so nice to take a photographic souvenir of my time up there.

[Lirodon 100]

Starlight Scrooge is a precious cinnamon roll.

http://foxinshadow.deviantart.com/art/Gamer-Celestia-620190929is the full pic. I just cropped everything else out except for Celestia's face

 

The whole pic is used for my Twitch offline art and my Youtube banner art. It's basically me being represented by Celestia because I'm a troll gamer (and something else a bit kinky ♥). Fox is the best brony artist ♥

[Bizarre Wizard 5,001]

I chose this avatar because I think that personality of Pearl from SU is really similar to mine

Sometimes even more than it would be good. 9w9

But anyways she's nice.

It's a placeholder until I can finish a particular project...  

[Duality 10,740]

Because quantum physics. Einstein used a water droplet analogy when explaining the wave-particle duality of particles.

[Luminance 2,186]

I was deciding to whether choose Twilight over my previous favorite Applejack. I guess Twilight took over my heart over time and I wanted to show my affection by composing a nice photo of a Twilight figure as my avatar.

[Chuckles4lyfe 441]

I absolutely love the mane "7"! Like the picture says, they are squad goals              :=: (We need a new Starlight smiley).

[Kiri 7,288]

It's one of my most recent sketches of Kiri, my Kirin OC, and I decided to use it as a placeholder until I finish drawing up an avatar.

[Ruddboy Olaf 10,628]

I was looking for something nonsensical this time. That's when "He burnt my shake" popped up in my head.

[Randimaxis 8,652]

Well...

 

See, there were these cows.  

 

The cows were bio-luminescent sandwich genies from an alternate universe where the A-Team wasn't led by Hannibal, but by a cartoon bear named "Dungaree Pimplepopper" instead.  The premise was to aid the Umbamboogiez Stagecoach Authority in their never-rendering quest to bleep the spleen.  

 

It was a long, loooooooong trek we undertook to reach the pristine shores with sores on our oars, fo' sures... and it wasn't until the pure essence of the fifteen flaxen waxen mopsy-topsy locksy nox because strange words are fun to say.  Interestingly enough, if you insert a single tpyo into the middle of a sentence, it messes with your head.  Better still?  Realizing that you're going to go back and look for it even if you DIDN'T see it in the treetops of the where was I, oh yeah.

 

So those alternate dimensional luminescent cows that were representatives of the Sandwich Genie Armada decided that it wouldn't be prudent at this juncture to round up the humans for manburgers, so instead they hired Ziggy Marley, Michael Buble and Anthrax to throw a massive party in honor if the day the frankfurter destroyers met their match in the simple farm-life folk of Las Vegas, deep in the heart of Texas.  It was only because of the rain on the plane that we made it to Spain to address the mess of a dress in thess pless where we had come to; we had to get back, get back, get back to where we once belonged.

 

But after the many, maaaaaaany miles of distance between ourselves and the levy fell away, we came to the slow yet inevitable conclusion that it had, unfortunately, run exceedingly dry - a victim of nationwide excess, exes of Essex who were always vexed when having...

 

... noodle soup...

 

... so we turned our starboard noses into the dirt, and ground down around until we found a pound that was sound - on which, we did found The Knights Of The Groundbeef Table (because glowing cows, remember?), one of the most inexplicable gatherings of weirdos that ever bleeped a motherfranxing spleen.

 

Part of my oath was to swear that I would never truly open my mouth hole to hazard forth my opinion as to the possible conscious reasons I might decide to utilize a particular image to attempt to capture a minute, possibly even semi-memorable first impression that might add a perception of something that others may not quite understand, but most certainly could take a moment to take a gander at, perhaps, a profile instead.  

 

After all, books, covers, judging... you know the drill.

 

Oh, and bleep the spleen.  Thain kyoo hand guudnyte.

because beato is best witch

[PinkiePie97 913]

Pinkie was my favorite pony and she was also in my username, so I went on Google Images, searched Pinkie Pie, and picked a picture I like.

[zerox 1,120]

because I like twilight and coz she fits me the most.

[Tao 7,762]

I like the Last Unicorn and making my own icons!

[AmarisNsane 2,730]

Because Tsuyu Asui is my frog waifu.  It's as simple as that.  

[Sunny Fox 5,950]

Cause Sardonyx is best fusion.
