Mine is something I 'drew' in Paint a while back.

It is a sort of spirit.

I don't know if it has any significance other than the fact that for years I used to send myself off to sleep with the same thought. It involved me shooting through space at high speed away from the earth ~ I felt more comforted the further away I imagined I was from the planet (and therefore people).

That being the case I have no idea why it is female because I am male.

As of 5/16/05, my avatar is changed. I found this new avatar on a google image search (Which i had to sift through twentysomething thousand pics from two searches to get to... Curse Google!) I dare everyone to guess the identity of this mysterious manga boy. You have 24 hours. START!

Well, I've changed my avatar about 4 times since joining. Right now, it's just a (not very good) pic of me!

My Sister says it's Harry Potter. She adores Harry Potter and is also a big fan of manga and all things japanese, so I think she's probably right :wink:

My avatar represents................me. It was the best one I could find. I happened to be spacing out/preservating right before my younger brother's wedding rehearsal, so this is the expression on my face frequently. I might post the whole pic sometime.

A bit like my life......

Mine is the sign that one passes when entering a German autobahn. Its literal meaning is 'Begin autobahn driving rules'. I like roads and other surface transport systems.

with an appendage?

mine is me, of course, during one of my more balletic dance routines. (the policeman is merely coincidental, if you can see him in the picture, which i can't be arsed to check, right at this moment - if you can't, then this comment is utterly mystifying. please feel free to interpret this in any way you desire).

I still have not found the meaning of my avatar. But it is still damn interesting.

Malcolm_Sipo, I was wondering what your avatar meant! I tried finding the source code for it, so that I could find out where you got it. Did you just randomly find it? The reason I am asking is b/c it appears to me as an occult symbol, reminiscent of "The DaVinci Code." I am intrigued.

Bingo! Mockingbird is right!

I got it on a google image search when i typed in the words "harry potter manga." I know there are thousands of talented manga artists out there who can't resist drawing comic books and fan art. (I am one, although my manga is nowhere near this quality.) They always post it on the Net, allowing it to be picked up by Google. I thank the anonymous artist whose work is now my avatar. (See, no plagarism!)
