I love driving.

I have a bunch. The first is my personal logo, trillium. The second is the coat of arms of the capital of Slovenia. I found it doing research on the homeland of a friend who left us. The Apple iPad was for the introduction of the device and the last one is the coat of arms of Slovenia. I haven't got around to using it because the dargon guarding the castle thing just rocks me!

To be honest, I just thought mine looked cool when I picked it. If I were to give a reason why, I'd say that it has to do with my interest in SciFi. The mountains in the back kind of evoke foreign terrain and the happy face is just a really stark contrast, as if there's some kind of unseen force that's almost entertained by us. I don't know really, I just like it.

My location, however, is the home planet of the Foundation, in Isaac Asimov's Foundation.

I'll admit that my daughter and I are big fans of Disney. My favorite character is Stitch because he's a good combination of funny and mischievous.

...and the toilet plunger on his head just speaks volumes.

Mine is because I like Linux.

I usually have:

but since Ubuntu is getting ready to release a new version shortly, I changed my avatar to:

I'll probably switch it back next month.

Ever wonder what a users avatar means? Maybe why they chose it? Welcome to the thread of explanations.

I'll start. Pretty simple. I love Apple and I live in Texas and love it. The end.

Edit: After thinking, we all change our Avatars so I'm going to include my current one in this post.

Best team in the NFL.

Great avatars you both have.

Mine is two pics of Zev from Lexx. Or my wife with the lights dimmed.

Mine is the logo from my alma mater, the University of Central Florida.

Mine's awesome.

 

[chrmjenkins]

Sir Didymus from the Henson movie "Labyrinth." This does not appear in the movie, it's an illustration from the artist behind the movie, though. I chose it because I'm very fond of Henson's work and his impact on culture and the lives of children.

Mine's awesome.

Mine's awesomer.

I loved the Peanuts while growing up, and Snoopy in particular was my favorite.

And here I thought you just saw Snoopy as a really cool pilot.

True - he's definitely the coolest pilot I know!
