Mine: Need I say more? :p

[Guest]

Mine is based on the symbol of Saint Mark, because that's my name (the other way around)

Although it doesn't actually bare any religious significance to me :p

[Mystic Mungis]

Mine is Stare Dad

[Glassed Silver]

Mine is the main character Suzumiya Haruhi from Suzumiya Haruhi No Yuutsu, also known as "The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya"

It's one of my favorite anime shows! (Y)

Currently it's Hei from Darker Than Black looking out at a cityscape (because I live on a farm and I dislike farms. Heh.)

Mine is from the book 'Foundation's Edge' by Isaac Asimov. And then my quote, 'the stars, like dust...' is from his Empire novel of the same name.

Mint Adnade from Tales of Phantasia, but somebody has heard of Star Ocean? well... the creators of star ocean are original staff from the Tales of Phantasia game. Kosuke Fujima knows how to draw a girl (Oh~ my godess).

Yes.

What's the point of starting a thread asking people to explain their avatar and then not explaining yours. Not everyone knows everything about games/tech etc ( I assume it's a character from a game).

Mine - well, i'm into rock/metal, and it's a guitar playing, head banging character.

[Joseph B]

Clint Eastwood.

[a1ien]

It's sort of a shadowy anonymous man to signify I'm a hacker.

Also OP, no idea what yours is.

Mine is the cover from the NZ Edition of the book Magician, and my username is the main character in said book.

[Flae_qui]

Vader's mask.... we all hide behind something at times good or evil

[spacer]

Death from Ctrl-Alt-Del, one of my favorite web comics.

[Ryster]

Mine is Evil Teddy. No idea why, have had it for years :)

The teddy is from one of the early MSN Messenger builds IIRC. I gave it red eyes, a frown, and that flamy background myself :)

[n_K]

I'm not sure about the origin of mine, but I quite like it none the less.

My avatar is actually my 40th birthday present from my wife -- she has a friend on the Internet who does custom portraits and avatars (website at http://www.dot2uk.com, and she commissioned this portrait for me because I'm a Star Trek fan (she says fanatic....but that's okay....because it's true.) Neat combination, too -- Capt. Kirk's uniform from Star Trek II-VI, and Geordi LaForge's VISOR from Star Trek: The Next Generation in place of my glasses. :)
