Avatars

Postby dervivaire » Fri Mar 19, 2010 3:37 pm

I often find myself wondering where people's avatars are from, please could you all state where yours comes from in here? thanks ^^
I don't know what mine is from unfortunately, but I like to think of it as a character I created, since it bears some resemblance.

I've had several, so here's a list:

Doll Wizard
Google Images
Bing

That's the gist of it.

I get a lot of mine from either Moeboard or Safebooru. I also get some from game CG sets, but I haven't used any since I've started using this computer.

Nikkou, just out of interest, where is your current one from?

Moeboard, I believe. I haven't gone to Safebooru much since it went back into operation, but you can probably find it there, too.

Mine's from the PC Engine version of Popful Mail, which sadly didn't get released in North America. However, the Sega CD version did (and was translated by Working Designs, which was awesome).

Mine was drawn by a friend. :D

I typically use pictures I've drawn for my avatars.

No it's not a picture of me. I'm more cleanly shaved, and my hair, not so long. It is Chuck Norris!

I made mine from Walfas.org in a Touhou-themed flash character maker~! I normally find my avatars from Google and Photobucket. Yet my current avy has pretty much become a logo for me now. I use it everywhere ^w^

Ask Odin/Xia where mine came from, but I'm sure you could just go to an image site like danbooru and find it. I mean, how hard is it to find a picture of an albino in a swimsuit?

...That is a rhetorical question, by the way.

As for where I find most of my avatars: people tend to send me stuff, or I find things on danbooru, usually, cause I tend to stick to avatars that suit particular characters of mine. But I do sometimes find something neat elsewhere from time to time. ^_^

I got my avatar from severe brain damage.
This signature is bad and will only lead to disappointment and shame, read about David or read his crappy journal by clicking those links and later wishing you didn't.
