Thanks for posting Ed. I could never figure out what your avatar was, other than it looked creepy, like something from Terminator!!

My avatar is my Hastings cabinet of Mike Kelly. For no particular reason. My handle is uffda, a mild Norwegian expletive - what a stoic Norwegian might say after accidentally cutting off his thumb with a saw. The equivalent of "Dagnab it!" 51 was my high score in bowling.

My avatar is my profession.

My user name is a combination of the 1st 3 letters of my first name, middle initial, and 1st 3 letters of my last name. Been using it periodically since I was 14.

I guess I will have to claim the green light like Barry for my avatar.
My username has been with me since the first day I walked into the dorm of collage. I wasn't really a cowboy but I looked like one that first day. Someone called me "Tex" and it stuck. At least 90% of my friends in school never even knew my real name. As the years went by I keep adding X's for each decade that I lived but had to stop since it was getting to long.

When you think about how he kept playing after that injury, you gotta think he WAS a terminator!

Interesting to read about everyone's avatar choices and how they have come to display them. Mine just comes from one of my E98s, Frank Chance.
It is one of my favorites from my E98 Master Set and the reds are my favorite background color.

My avatar is from a particularly bad tax day a few years ago. I stopped working on the taxes, ruffled my hair and glasses for a quick picture and a few minutes of comic relief. My username is my initials and state abbreviation.
