Rich mentioned that there was no such thread so decided to start a new one because I wanted to know why youve chosen your current avatar/icon/sig, etc.
Mine is because Im a 'Prison Break' fan and Im really excited about the start of the second season. So in celebration of that I changed it from the 'Angel' one I had ... which honestly had no real meaning or significance.

Well, I'm having a bit of a problem with images. I post from work where it is frowned on to use my compy for personal stuff. So all my pictures are on an image hosting site. But I usually have a silver pendant of a flying angel piggy. If I can ever figure out how to post from there, y'all will get tired of me posting images, lol. |

I'm glad you started this thread. I always was curious about some of the avatars.
My husband is president of an Old West Reenactment Group here out West called the Mojave Muleskinners. My avatar is one of our logos.

Well as I am sure almost everyone knows by now, I am a big Uncas fan so what else would I have but an Uncas Avatar giving one of his "famous looks" from LOTM |

My avatar is "Young George Washington." I chose it in his honor, because the more I have learned about him, the more I have come to admire him. He is so much more than just an old man (and a very poor likeness, at that) on our dollar bill. He is one of my heroes. |

My avatar is part of a print by Robert Griffing called "Too Quiet." Hope I didn't break any copyright laws by using it! |

Mine is the King of England, Longshanks ... as portrayed in Braveheart. I chose it because I am the "Sachem" [king] here ... ... and it was once, long ago, said that I ruled with an iron hand. Not true, of course!!!! Then there's the whole King Richard thing ...
Actually, I'm thinking of changing my avatar. |

I really like your avatar Rich! I hope you don't decide to change it! I am a Auburn football fan, thus my avatar is a tiger.

So explain why Bama says "Roll Tide" but your mascot is an elephant? Carter |

Love that show! I chose my avatar, mockingbirds in a magnolia tree, because I'm in Alabama, we have magnolias in our yard and the mockingbirds represent the wonderful novel "To Kill a Mockingbird" by Harper Lee who is an Alabama native. |
