Okay maybe this might be better elsewhere but I can't think of anywhere since avatars are sorta creative but Where did people get their avatars?
I'm asking this because I'm genuinely interested and Mista_B's has got me going is that wasp?
I got mine by messing around with artwork from the lovely Myssa Rei's site.

i got mine from a SRW forum.. i'd put some of my own drawing up but there all crap

Heh, yup, that's a wasp. I think wasps are fun and cute, hehe. It was actually a custom pic done by a friend of mine, she's a pretty good artist. I gotta get her stuff up to deviantart one of these days.

Ooo, and some very nice stuff at that link there, good find.

found mine on 4chan. the previous one was form google. and photobucket.

I found mine on the internets, like I find most things. I sorta float like a leaf on the wind of data, and pick up interesting things as they pass by.

Bookmark 4chan and you'll probably get all you need.

I made mine in paint. If you make a pic at about 1000x1000 it looks pretty decent when you shrink it to 50x50. If I were to show you a full size of my avatar, you'd be shocked at how crappy it really is.

Resizing and Smoothing covers a multitude of artistic sins. ^_^

I generally find mine via anime art sites and 4chan. 4chan is a strangely awesome resource for graphics....even the horrible doom of /b/ can sometimes hold hidden treasures between the racist propaganda and gay dick-girl porn. No, seriously.

fiss is right, the current one is from /b/

Geez, I don't even remember what site mine came from.

Is that a sign that it's time for a new one?


Oooohh, and this is post number 200. Squee for me.

Mista_B I found Myssa's site after reading Alain Gravel's The One I Love Is... I think it's just as good as Fiss's works... then again... I'm a sucker for a good romance.

Mine is a screenshot from the original opening to the original Wild ARMs game. I think the screencap came from RPGamer.com, but I'm not entirely sure. I cropped and resized it down to 100x100.

I have a whole folder on my HD that's nothing but screencaps that I've gathered over time to make into avatars if I ever get bored enough. I've also been playing with the idea of using one of my original drawings as an avatar, but I don't have anything really suitable yet.

let's hope you dont get impaled.

myself, it was NOT easy screenshotting mine from the Happytai video "YATTA!"

You know, I heard that Japanese has closer linguistic relations to Finnish than any othe language, including Chinese and Korean. Does Finnish use honnorative suffixes like Japanese?

I didn't know that. And no, we don't use those.

I understood that it was Turkish...though there's some sort of weird Turkish-Finnish connection, too...hmm...there's a vast conspiracy of Linguists...what're they planning...?

world domination through the words?
