Do you always use the same avatar?

Yes. I like the one I have and there's no reason to change it

Heh. I will henceforth refer to the esteemed Director Donner in the feminine.

While I tried to identify the picture I googled Enterprise C to see if I it was a common image. It is not. Very cool and rare.

Checked out Sagan. A ton of cool pictures. I liked them on Facebook. :-)

Predator would probably win due to being more patient, but Alien's drool will destroy the board long before that happens.

I love love love AvP, although it took me many years to learn to appreciate them together. Excellent choice.

I updated my avatar for the first time in forever just for you and this thread aTOM! :D

Cool and interesting Avatar, balon!

The first time I saw this Alien vs Predator picture a few years ago I made it my desktop image immediately.

Thanks dude! It's a clip from one of my favorite comics: Castle Waiting.

I just got into a new boardgame called Heroscape, it encourages making your own units, and the Aliens were top of my list! I added 'Grid' from AvP as well.

Isn't that part of your Edgetar?

I'm going to keep my current avatar for a while, because this pic of Min amuses me.

balon!, my AutoCAD-atar was something I made shortly after I joined KW so its pretty old though I can't remember when I first used it. Probably around 2004 or 2005.

I gave Edge this avatar and a photo of myself so he integrated both images and added the mushroom cloud to form my Edgeatar. :-)

Sorus, the good Director appears very inquisitive and thus she is herself inspiring curiosity as to what she is actually looking at with such intensity. :-)

Edge's talent is missed, but I hadn't realized you'd designed the template - I thought he was just working from a photo.

Min is actually washing her face, and she paused to stare at me, probably wondering why I was taking a picture of her washing her face. One of my other cats does the same thing, and she usually pauses with her tongue sticking out, which makes for an entertaining image. Min has a little more dignity, but still managed to make an amusing image.

I had the same avatar for a long time, then a modification, than a complete change. And actually, my current avatar no longer matches my title, so maybe I should change that, too. ;)

Heh. Not lately. :biggrin:


MM, you have one of the most energetic Avatar's I've ever seen.
I find it quite entertaining and a little hypnotic which gives me an idea. :-)

Speaking of toads ... aTOMiC, I have been wondering what the clue "burns, tick, rush" means. I am assuming it's some sort of word puzzle. But dang, I cannot figure it out.

Well, I'm sorry to say that there was no conscious effort on my part to create anything cryptic with those images. They are arranged in the order that I found them and they represent random interests of mine found during a general search of standard 100 x 100 pixel format shareable images.

Somehow I feel I will be seen as far less clever having revealed that. :biggrin:

No, my friend. It is I who am too clever.
