Why did you pick it? I picked mine because it represents my escapism to video games so I can avoid the hell going on in the world and never leave the house ever (also having a hard time getting past the interview process - had about 10 since Late September) yay pity party!

It's the cover of YOB's latest album. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VunIoLslYrE
Background is Jesus in front of an explosion, because Chaotic Lord, based on my oldpunch avatar. https://i.imgur.com/Pw4W5pr.png Avatar is Cardinal Copia, the fourth and current lead singer and frontman(always the same person, just different character and costume) from the Swedish rock/metal band 'Ghost', taken from the "Plaguebringer" T-shirt artwork. https://i.redd.it/ddbkzx2bs7211.jpg
Oh yay. I was reading this really interesting book, All Yesterdays. It's a very interesting piece regarding the reconstruction of dinosaurs and other animals through fossils. How it's done, the limitations, etc. Well anyway, near the end of the book there's a section called "All Todays", which is modern animals today reconstructed from just their skeleton, imagining we knew nothing about them. It's a pretty fun read. They had a section on the toad, so I thought it'd be appropriate. This is what these hypothetical re-constructors have to say about the toad: A Toad ambles merrily along the Holocene forest floor. This reconstruction is now considered to be erroneous since their longer hindlimbs indicate that Toads were possibly bipedal.
Th'lump, the pufferfish that makes up my avatar is my second favorite fish from Fishcenter Live. Its from 2 years ago, back when he was smaller, but how could you not like this cute lil guy? https://www.facebook.com/fishcenterlive/videos/1046840368705859/
It's a render I did in Blender of Iris cuz she has a nice face, though it's the cut off version for a reason you can probably guess.
Fifth Fleet banner and the Research commissions logo from MHW. Changed it when I got MHW and got too lazy to change it to something else.
Divinity's pretty good. Got good lizards.
The heart is from the liner art for Houkago Tea Time 1 iirc since K-ON! was my first proper anime, Mugi because my first Avatar as a Goldy Boi was her flexing. Honestly Mugi isn't even my favourite character in it but I feel having her as my avatar became my "thing" after a bunch of inconsistent random images
been a fan of the Alien movies ever since it scared me as a child. an actual xenomorph from the movies isn't very friendly looking so I don't think it works that well as a avatar. so I usually pick some friendly looking art of it instead
Genderbent fan art of Joker from Persona 5. Cuz I like girls.
Good friend of mine Nightfury Treann rigged some Dead by Daylight models to use tf2 animations, and Myers doing the carlton cracked me up. As for the background I’m just too lazy to change it at this point
nazrin wrapped up warm because it's getting cold with hannibal buress sat in a floating chair because i'm wack
its a nice album
My parents made the thing in my avatar, I made the thing in my background.
I've used this background as a Halloween avatar before and I'm too lay to change it. Avatar is actually me.
big boi who shoots eye lasers and starts revolutions
Background is best described as dark and edgy. Avatar is originally of Boris Brejcha, a techno-musician, who likes to wear some pretty cool decorative masks that remind of me Eldar Harlequins from WH40K.
I love penguins and I'm edgy af
It's one of my favorite scenes from kentucky route zero https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ufAUonsYhVU
I put the dancing emote from the SomethingAwful forums as my avatar back in 2005 as a stop gap measure, until I could find a really cool avatar. I never did and it kinda stuck! The background was a result of searching the image dimensions on Google, one of the first results just happened to be Barney. Plus Barney is my favourite HL character.
I like Motörhead. They're my favourite band, Lemmy was and is an inspiration. My only tattoo so far is the Ace of Spades single cover art. I didn't have enough coins to make my oldpunch avatar fit so I just went with the background instead.
i commissioned an artist to draw my Splatoon character & its super nice! that's it
Sabbat chase you in here, Cammy?
It's from a 'I'll draw a literal version of your username' thread that somebody made on here years ago. I think their name was like, Dr Fishhead or something like that? They drew a 'Jam Sponge Subway' and I really liked it, so I ended up adapting it into my own little character that sort of acts as my online 'persona'. I've only modified the design like once in the past 8 years, changing the coloured outlines to just be black to make it pop more
I couldn't think of anything (else) to put as my avatar so I used a sprite from some vaporware I'm making (eventually). It's Ninten. https://files.facepunch.com/forum/upload/140792/e883fcf6-3139-441b-adee-bdf8e49e8d92/Screenshot from 2018-11-11 09-43-18.png The background is not a town from the game but it's meant to look like one. Both took a bit of iterating and thinking to get right; his shirt's stripe color is the same as his skin and the tree in the background is the same color as the grass but the sand path makes it stand out. I may change it when (if) I do something new/better.
