Nice Avatar Linnea. Is it a self-portrait?
And is that a frog in your hand or what??
Heh! Why, yes indeedy, it is a self-portrait (http://home.comcast.net/~linnea78/images/cam.jpg).
And that is not a frog, it is my beloved kitty, Lennybruce. (http://home.comcast.net/~linnea78/len_caffeine.jpg) ^_^
I got the avatar here: http://illustmaker.abi-station.com/index_en.shtml. Don't be intimidated by the seemingly long list of features...although it takes a long time to make one (about four and a half minutes). They are rad.

I've used that thingy before. Most disconcerting.

Edit: According to my closest approximation and the other-thingy Choop linked to, I look like this:

Sorta.

Except for the hair (they had no mini-pompadors, and no dirty blonde colour) this looks surprisingly like me.
-
Except for the cigarette (which we can pretend is a joint) and a coffee, it looks nothing like me.
The shades are totally different, the hair's all wrong, the face shape is wrong, the nose is wrong, the ears are wrong...
Apart from that though...

I was very, very bored, and am now desperately trying not to think...
Addition: At least this one features some more anime hairstyle, and allows purple...

That's about as close as I can get.
Here's another site I made an avatar from a while back:
(http://www.10mar2001.com/images/dookyweb.gif) (http://www.dookyweb.com/index.php?seccion=avatars)
Meh.
-
See, everyone looks remarkably far more like their than I do mine...
Except maybe yours Andalucia?
It's probably because they don't offer either a suitable purple or anime style quiff.
-
This was strangely fascinating.
I don't know if this looks like me, but it does capture the vague look of confusion and distress that is characteristic at the moment, and I like the odd small mammal.

Also I am standing in front of a statue of a famous dog in Japan, where I'd much rather be than here right now. It's kind of stupid that they make your head cover the important part of the background picture, but I know it's there and that's what counts.
ps Surely time to split this thread...
-
Heh, thanks to the mods for making this a thread in its own right. <3

Well, I fiddled with this for a while, and I wasn't quite able to make myself look like I didn't have Down Syndrome, but to be fair, this is also a problem with normal photos. Thus:

(The background represents our college's single Japanese classroom, in which I will have had classes for my entire undergraduate experience. It's like my home away from home.)

Zart, is that a really thin 80s tie?

You bet your White Irish Ass. Skinny monochromatic ties are all I'll wear, if I can find them; I know what works and I'm fuck*ng well sticking with it.
(I bought the tie five years ago, and have no actual idea when it rolled off the assembly line. Apologies to you and yours / budding socio-historians.)

How many people could be named Harvey PE-kar?

Zartan's tie rocks my world.
This is all.

They didn't have anything between slight five o'clock shadow and full bushy beard with handlebar moustache, so this'll have to do.

What?!?! No braids (http://www.x-omega.com/jamie/braids.jpg)!?!?
Ah, well. Piggies and a 'do-rag will have to suffice. (Yes, I really do.)
This looks like a much younger version of me.

I want to go back in time like 150 years and buy commodities futures from this guy.

That's about as close as I can get.
This is surprisingly accurate.
As is this, at least once my hair grows out to where I want it and February rolls around. And no, I don't know that it's a girl.

And that is not a frog, it is my beloved kitty, Lennybruce. (http://home.comcast.net/~linnea78/len_caffeine.jpg) ^_^
For the love of god, that cat is so crazy cool. I've never seen a cat with different coloured eyes before! And a great name too - I hope Lennybruce swears a lot!

Ha, ha! Yes, he certainly DOES. He's got a hella foul mouth, and if he were a person he'd be married to a stripper. Actually, both Lennybruce and his brother, Milan (http://home.comcast.net/~linnea78/images/milan_christmas.jpg), EACH have one gold eye and one blue eye. They are so goddamn cute ^_^

Thankfully in real life you don't have detached hair that floats just below your years.
Also, in the photo you look like an underling has displeased you in some way that will probably lead to dismemberment.
-
Is Milan a SCOTTISH FOLD?!?
“Hewwo! How awe yew?”
(N.B. if you enter "achewood 'scottish fold' on Google you get precisely two hits, one for Ray's Place and one for this site.)
-
I take it since your refer to them as siblings and since they both have one eye of each colour that they are actually biological brothers, and yet Milan has Scottish fold-like ears while LennyBruce does not. Ain't biology neat?!
-
Scottish folds are like the king of awesome as far as cats are concerned.
-
Yes and YES!!
XD
I wrote a letter to Ray shortly after the entire Scottish Fold debacle. He PUBLISHED IT! (http://www.achewood.com/raysplace.php?date=09022003&allnav=) You can also Google "linnea Ray's Place" and it'll bring it up. ^_^
Yes, Milan and Lennybruce are siblings! (http://home.comcast.net/~linnea78/ml.html) I love having littermates--it was the best decision that I ever made. <3 They spend hours playing kitty jiu-jitsu and running around and taking naps together. The best is when Lenny tries to groom Milan's sad little ears. :)
-
I've said it before, I'll say it again: Those cats are so damn cute I want to squish them. I also have litter mates: sisters who were abandoned by wiccan lovers who lived in my bf's appartment before we moved in. Sometimes I joke that these two women discovered life was better as cats and used their magic to become the two cats we now own. Life is definitly good for wiccan-lovers-turned-cats in our household. It's a taste of the nip whenever you like and belly-rubs often home for the girls.

Dude. Check it out... one of the folks on another forum made this for me.
{{edit. I have been informed that this image macro is just not classy. Please delete your browser history.}}

Wow, cute and horribly, horribly alarming at the same time!

Jesus fuck.

Jesus fuck.
I know I couldn't have put that any better.

D'oh. Sorry, Jough. Image deleted due to lack of classiness.
-
Well, alright then.
Now if others would just hold you up as an example and delete their posts with a lack of class, the board would have only three dozen posts.

Yes, I have an abundance of class.

There is something inherently funny about this sentence not matter who says it.

I appear to have missed something strange and horrible, but I will just say: Milan is adorable. So is Lennybruce, but oh, those Scottish Fold ears.
My family's first set of cats, back when I was a wee small child, were a pair of tuxedo littermates named Puff and Cotton. Cotton, sadly, was exploded by a car at about age one and a half, but Puff is nineteen years old and still with us. She's outlived two and a half* cats, and we're starting to wonder how much of that may be foul play on her part.
* Cotton; Nermal, a subsequent tuxedo who was found dead in our raspberry bushes, presumably of natural causes; and Rex, who is probably not dead but ran away nine days ago and is probably gone for good, idiot cat that he is.
-
V-Adore: 'sploded by a car? :( That sucks. I hope that Puff is innocent of the foul murders that have colored her past.
Heh! Okay. I'm going to repost the dreaded image macro. Bwahahahaha. Tacky? OF COURSE IT IS... it's an animated gif of a dancing Scottish Fold head. I love it. ^_^

Holy crap, that's both beautiful and terrifying. I applaud you.

Should have...sent....a poet.....
-
JOUGH. FIX IT.

DONE
-
Buuuuuuuurrrrrn.
:(

I just don't think the world is ready for it.
(And also I can generally applaud the board's commitment to a lack of gigantic anigifs, even if occasionally it limits strange dancing Scottish Fold heads.)

Ouch. Out-done by a former moderator.
