    Avatars! Why did you choose yours

    Sorry chaps but I'm bored and the Crystal Ball isnt lighting my fire so I thought I might ask a question that I've wanted to ask for the past few weeks or so.

    Would anyone like to tell us the reasons behind the interesting gifs that they use for their Avatars (Gurm/Greebe etc)? Do many have a story behind theirs or is it just a case of finding a pic that one finds interesting.

    Just in case anyone wants to incriminate me over mine, I choose a Jackass/Donkey simply because of an inhouse joke at work. (I was that Joke)!

      I liked Pixar's short movie "For the birs" (shown here in theaters just before Monsters Inc.). This image is part of a frame in the movie, I liked this birds' expression.

      Earlier I was working on a 3D logo with my initials (VJ), but I ran into some problems mapping the materials, etc... Perhaps it will come someday.

                          That'd be helpfull if I knew what the heck your avatar was.

                          Mine's just a nice pair of headphones, Sennheiser HD600's.

                              Because Paint Rulez of course

                              ...or was it because I didn't have a good avatar, and only had 23 seconds to make one...

                                      Mine is from the Marzocchi company. They make suspension for mountain bikes, among thme the "ZokesPro" series suspension for mountain bikes. Oh yeah, I have a pair on my mountain bike too otherwise I would have found something else. Mine are just the regular Zokes.

                                              Any idea where I might be able to download the 'For the birds'? I thought it was great!

                                              My avatar is the peperami thing - why? I have no idea! (Maybe it's cos I'm 'a bit of an animal' )
