New World Man Group: Members Posts: 20 Joined: Dec. 2005 Posted: Nov. 28 2007, 06:03 My avatar is a piece of artwork taken from the album "Grace under pressure" by Canadian 3 piece mega rock band "Rush". Thought it was quite an apt avatar as I feel like that poor egg most of the time!!   -------------- Life is a spiral, time is a curve I know you get dizzy, but try not to lose your nerve...

What sort of guitar is it? -------------- "I'm no physicist, but technically couldn't Mike both be with the horse and be flying through space at the same time? (On account of the earth's orbit around the Sun and all that). So it seems he never had to make the choice after all. I bet he's kicking himself now." - clotty Back to top

Sweetpea Group: Members Posts: 1476 Joined: April 2007 Posted: Aug. 28 2008, 04:07 Thanks, Tati. It's a beautiful piece. I've noticed that Scatterplot has a new pic of his dog Eddy as his avatar, now. I right-clicked to view the full size and it's really adorable. I don't usually like seeing animals in clothing (except for cartoon ones), but Eddy wears a sweater quite well. -------------- "I'm no physicist, but technically couldn't Mike both be with the horse and be flying through space at the same time?

I know Korgscrew from a time before, when we both had more time and used to talk regularly. I can categorically tell you that Korgscrew is not, in fact, MO. -------------- Arron J Eagling Everyone's interpretation is different, and everyone has a right to that opinion. There is no "right" one, I am adding this post to communicate my thoughts to share them with like-minded souls who will be able to comment in good nature.

Sometimes I use a cat with a machine gun or "Jules" aka Samuel L. Jackson with a .45 automatic in his hand from "Pulp Fiction". Depends on my mood. -------------- We raise our voices in the night Crying to heaven And will our voices be heard Or will they break Like the wind Back to top

It's a mere shadow of its former, plump, self. It is really, isn't it. I tried to match the new avatar with the main colours of the board and managed to do that but the result does look a bit washed-out. This could be just a phase, though. Edit: Actually, now it looks like the colours don't match anymore. Edit2: Now I found a perfect avatar. It's a picture of a Naga Morich, the hottest chili - in the world.  I have a few of those in the freezer   Back to top
