What are your avatars?

[chris ma]

Mine is the picture that I took back in the early seventies in Hong Kong Victoria Harbour staged with a US aircraft carrier enroute to S.Korea I think. See the big Sansui sign in the background of the Hong Kong Island I took the picture from Kowloon side...I think most of the buildings in the picture are bulldosed over now...

Here they are.
Think they speak for themselves. No need to explain.

I think I'm liable to be put away as insane for expressing that.

Anyone know a avatar or image shrinking program that is out there, that is free? And specifically..BUG FREE. Ie, virus free. I'd change avatars like people change underwear, but I don't ahve enough ambition to spend money on it, or fight with trying to find the right shrink program. One that shrinks animations would be good too. I have some ideas....odd ones...

 

[SY]

The best free one I've used is Irfanview.

 

[KBK]

thanks, Sy. I'll have some fun, maybe.

A picture of an atomic explosion after 1-millionth of a second.

But I was thinking of changing it to a picture of some capacitors as shown in this current eBay auction (ends 16th January).

 

[SY]

I didn't know that silicone was used in caps.

Now I'll never figure out who you guys are....

Greg Erskine's avatar makes me smile. Lineup is on a monthly rotation plan. Sy is scaring me...

I think I need a new one with less turrets syndrome?

hi,
I did some change in signature again
The Pope is a much higher authority, than Lennon
so here is my current signature:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I invoke God’s abundant blessings of peace and joy upon all of you."
Vatican, 25 January 2006, BENEDICTUS XVI ( THE POPE )


That's much better

You caught me very quickly! Fast on the avatar and fast on the DIY. You got horus to respond. He needs some N.Pass. I think it would make him very happy. I told him so myself.

So long Santa

Time to say goodby to my festive avatar 'til next Christmas.
He will live here until then.
Suspended animation?

okay Tom, I go read your post in that topic. Maybe we let this topic deal with avatars.

Mine is of my cat, Anode. You may all say, "Aaaah" now.

Edit: Sigourney gets my vote too, six foot, gorgeous, and more intelligent than me (well, she's made far more wonga). Hubba, hubba.

Awwwwwwwwww...

The softest spot in my heart is for the kitties. Is he a she or is she a he?

Here's my little critter, Bella. I don't name cats, my sister gave her that name. I kind of regret it now, because whenever I hear her name, instead of thinking "beautiful" I can't help thinking "Lugosi." Perhaps I'll rename her... "Collector."

Mmm... I think I prefer your taste in four-legged pussy.

Mine is the late great audio aficionado and consummate DIY fanatic, General 'Bloodbath' McGrath, the man with one golden ear (or maybe it's brass,... but it's not tin ).

Anode is a girl - you can tell by her looking so cute. Your Bella is doing a very good job of looking cute too (I will have to show her to the management in a moment).

This is Guiness, but she was run over...
