Mine is from the first Secret Satan exchange. Satan told me I was not worthy of a gift, that i had to prove my evilness to receive anything. So what's more evil than choking out Santa Claus? After I posted that photo, another FATie (I forget who) added the flames. It seemed a perfect pic for my avatar.

Mine is "The Philosophers' Lamp" by René Magritte, 1936, as of course you all knew. I was looking for a picture to represent how I felt about Ameritrash on that particular day, and oh boy has it stuck.

I don't post much anymore but my old avatar of Terminatrix Summer Glau was most popular with Barney





Now it's 2003 European footballer of the Year Pavel Nedved - who led the best team at Euro 2004 which got knocked out in the semis :{

Mine is from the box lid of TITAN by Avalon Hill staff artist, Kenneth Nishiuye. He's just so angry inside that helmet and I've always thought that this artwork was iconic.

Good to know. I always thought your avatar was a particularly grim picture of Magneto.

Mine has been a rotating series of robots from pop culture as I do really enjoy all kinds of science fiction. My 2 young sons and I are currently enjoying the heck out of Netflix's Voltron Legendary Defender. Puts the original to shame and makes me wonder why we watched so much crap on TV back in the 1980's.

well what else were we going to do? Investigate the disappearance of a young boy amid supernatural events occurring around town including the appearance of a girl with psychokinetic abilities?! Huh?! Is that what you want?! No thanks, I'll just watch a bunch of cartoons.

Ah, yes - we all did, I think I was Baltar.

Mine is an icon of St Mark the Evangelist, but more importantly it's the image on the cover of Testament by John Romer. I've read the book twice (and watched the associated TV documentary series a number of times) and it had an interesting effect on my view of religion in our culture. The book is a secular look at the history of the Bible.

I've had a number of users on BGG reach out to me, leaping to the conclusion that I'm deeply immersed in Christianity because of it (which I am not). Truth be told I saw the book sitting on my bed stand about the time I had an interest in creating an avatar, and thought that using it, especially since Mark is shown writing in this particular artwork. A difficult image to find, I eventually went to Amazon to get a digital version of the front of the entire book in order to extract the image. I've run with it ever since.

When I signed on with F:At a few years later I had a black and white version of it that worked better with the color scheme of the site.


When the site went to a more colorful background I opted to go with the color version I've used elsewhere, so I've only sort of had two different avatars over my entire time here.

It's turned out to be a good choice for one particular reason -- the gold background is quite unique, allowing me to scroll down through long pages in a hurry and pick out my posts.

I'll mention that I recognize most of you by your avatar not your name, so when you switch I have to mentally change gears. No reason you shouldn't, but those of you that have run the same avatar for years are recognizable as old friends, even if we've never met in person.
