I figured since we had a thread for our handles again, it might be about time for another round of avatar explanations.
Normally, my avatar is some form of myself in sprite form, with whatever background stuff means something to me at the time. This has deviated only three times now, twice with sprites of my other characters.
Currently is one of those two times. For reference:
Just a leaping sprite of Toshi with a crappy attempt at anime-style speed lines in the background. The reason for this is that a mysterious user named synkr0nized on a forum that never was threatened to give everyone furry avatars if the necessary power was
ripped from the hands of the very admins acquired. I mistook this for "let's all have fun and get furry avatars before this place evaporates into the aether" and decided to show off the sprite, which I'd spent a lot of time doing, but had never been able to use for anything.
So what are your own stories?
