I'm trying to find a cool avatar one that suits me and I started wondering why you posters chose the ones you did?

at first I had an avatar of ash from evil dead when he was a "zombie like" creature (evil dead 2), cause this avatar was in my msn already, but then I changed that and bloodrayne said, dude, get this on the board, lol, and I figured, hell yeah, it's cooler then ash
ow, and I love meat:D
The one I have got now is just the first one I saw. I'm making up my own soon which should be better.

My avatar and my screenname go together, they are of Wicked Lady, from my faveorite anime "Sailor Moon" Rini\Wicked Lady is a child of the moon kingdom who was kidnapped and taken to the dark realm to be morphed into a minion of the Negaverse.
I'm thinking of replacing with a differant pic of her from my photo gallery. Tell me if YOU think that I should
Because I don't think I can upload my own yet.

If you have "paint" on your PC then you can change the size....I'm not sure if they ALL have the same thing but I loaded my file, went to "image" and changed the size using"strech and skew"......Why don't you try that?
Hope I helped!:cool:

I picked mine because Dr.Satan rules:)
Is there a post limit before you can upload an avatar?
Edit: nevermind.
Now to answer your question again:
Because I have this odd Agent Smith complex.

Oh, I didn't notice that actually. It's ok though. I have Paintshop Pro 7 and run my own forum site. I don't use vBulletin though but it opperates pretty much the same as Invision Board. Still good advice though. :)

Go to "user cp" click on "Edit options" then go to the bottom of the page and choose "change avatar" and last go to "browse" and choose the pic that you want
Pleasure to be of service:cool:

I'd rather remain non-descript? Sure, that's it. That and the fact that I'm an awful bore.

B/c Tales From the Crypt is my favorite tv series of all time.
Oh, by the way, Abbycomix, I love your avatar. Frankenhooker is just so unexpected.

don't use paint, the stretch option isn't verry acurate, use another photoediting program
the max pixels is 100X100
in photoshop you can set the dimensions of your picture in pixels, so you can set your size to the maximum
off course if your pic is 200X100 you have to set your size to 100X50
lol otherwise you get this stretched out image

It's quite a shame though that the movie completely blew. :)
As for my avatar, nothing haunts my dreams and frightens me moreso than the teletubbies...

Well I had Charles Manson for a while, simply because i think that he was one of the most interesting serial killers of all time. Of course they cant prove that. Plus we could be twins, I look just like him. Thought it time for a change, picked Otis from 1000 corpses cos' he such a ' I dont give a fuck badass' kinda like me LOL
