Why do you have that Avatar!?

[Johnny1996]

Because this car and this driver were a huge part of my childhood and even so today at age 22. The driver is Ed Lynch Jr and without him I may not have been introduced to sprint car racing or have the dream of racing them.

 

[Lameonade]

Because Christmas colors. Although they kind of look like tomatoes or grapefruits now.



EDIT: I've now embraced the flat, geometric aesthetic and have redesigned my avatar around it. Here's actually a neat side-by-side comparison.

 

[Liquid]

I think it speaks for itself.

 

[TheNuvolari]

This is my current relationship with GTP.

 

[Michelin]

Because it's me.

 

[Cutch_22]

I saw this concerned mascot, and the look on it's face had me laughing for 5 straight minutes.

It's been my avatar ever since:

 

[Carbon_6]

A reference to this road rocket:

Edit: now with gloss to match.

 

[TexRex]

Genesis + Hipgnosis = The Lamb.

Edit: It's Albert!

 

[TTM]

Kapp’n, from the Animal Crossing games.
Always loved this character.
But the REAL reason why this avatar? Well, it’s a secret project I’m involved in.
Can’t say any more.

 

[FoRiZon]

Because Bwah (cute)

 

[Tina Branford]

Because Tina Branford is the best fictional character ever imho, and Final Fantasy VI is a great game besides the fact that all the innocent Espers die(I hope they have afterlives that are similar to some kind of heavenly realm or something.) I happen to also share a lot of personality traits with Tina.

 

[MisterWaffles]

Because I caught this shiny Wailmer in Pokémon OR/AS and it looks like Thanos.

 

[Liquid]

Avatar Of The Year Award 2019 goes to @Joey D

 

[Dobermann92]

Because it is my favourite road car.

 

[flanylla]

Because foxes are cute :3

 

[NoirAntares]

Best Aqours girl don't @ me.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

During my childhood watching Nascar, I was a Dale Jarrett fan. Mainly because my father was and I followed suit. I did grow to really like him though and thought he was a great driver. I also liked his commercials with UPS, hehe.

Also, I started to get into Nascar again. I kinda went back and started researching drivers and reading the book my parents got me for one of my birthdays.

 

[Silver Arrows]

Because it's Burnaby Joe and Foppa. Duh.

 

[TexRex]

Talk Talk

I acknowledged the passing of lead singer Mark Hollis (foreground) at the time, but here's an avatar to do so further.

 

[Shaun]

It's the headtube from my bike.

 

[Vegard]

It's a split Nautilus shell. I chose it because logarithmic spiral. My previous avatar was a Mandelbrot set image.

Yes, I like geometry.

 

[kikie]

I have had mine for quite some time now and I'm too lazy to come up with another avatar. Simple.

It's a good avatar; often makes me grin despite having seen it so many times before.

It's the exact opposite of what it should be on mobile, though.

I don't use GTP on mobile so I don't know how my avatar looks like on a phone.

I expected something like that.

 

[TexRex]

View attachment 817808

Beat me to it; I was planning to do precisely that as soon as I was on mobile and had an opportunity to.

Also, no lie, I actually tried to click the "Like" button in the attached image the first time around. Ugh...not sleeping sucks.

 

[Casey]

Cause I like Neo.

 

[Small_Fryz]

I didn't realize you can change it?

 

[MaxAttack]

Because my tablet wont let me save this glorious snap of Markku Alen, who coined the phrase i take my name from.
