Mine is from a 1994 Pink Floyd album cover, "The Division Bell". For me it's two talking heads speaking past each other. It was appropriate for a current events/politics forum I used to participate in. I'd change it, but I haven't found anything I like better.
My avatar is George Greenough on a surf mat, on a wave. I chose it because surfing, that is surfing on a mat, is one of my favorite things to do. I just got back from surfing at Rincon, a bit of hurricane swell. I don’t plan on changing my favorite activity, or my avatar any time soon.
Mine was the last photo I took of a flashlight. In this case it was a Streamlight Double Clutch headlamp that was about to be attached to my hardhat.
Edit: I thought my choice of avatar and decided to change it to the front view of a budget light by Energizer I picked up at Lowes. It may change.

Edit 2:
Just photographed a zipper bag pencil case for my new avatar. That’ll do for a while.

I didn’t bother with an avatar for years, but I’ve just realised that it’s easier to find my messages in a long thread of PMs if I have one.
So: if burning stuff makes the phlogiston go away, and the ash is heavier than the stuff you burnt, then phlogiston must have negative mass, hence the periodic table symbol
I chose my Fully custom 1986 Isuzu Trooper II. I built it from the frame up including all the metal fabrication. It has a 5.7l Chevy engine with a 4L60E tranny and 3.73 gears. Full custom audio and video system, on board air with 4 3 cubic feet air tanks. Over 250 sq ft of sound deadner and coated with over 6 gallons of bed liner. I fully custom built my dash where the Olight X7 sites in the center using the foam it came with in the box and the Convoy L6 and Thorfire S70 are used as my inside door handles held in place with rubber mounts for easy removal. 151db duel airhorns, over 1500 watts of led lighting with the rear and side lights on remote and using the Hella E4 code driving lenses with Hella 90W/130W bulbs. Front winch and land anchor and on and on…. There is way to much to list! Its been a labor of love sense 1995. It started out with the 2.3l which was replaced with several 4.3l motors and now the 5.7l. The motor is getting tires so it might be time for an LT1 motor. I have had it in the air twice and collapsed the front end twice until I used bigger parts lol. Now I have a 1982 Jeep Wagoneer to play with which will have solar air water LP gas the hole works. No, I will most likely keep my avatar.
Mine is a custom tip and ferrule I created for the business end of a one-of-a-kind custom pool cue, owned by a good friend who is battling stage-4 cancer in Memphis. One reason I chose this particular photo was the limited pixel count available for the avatar. If the pixel allocation increases, I’ll likely change the photo.
My avatar is a photo of my failed attempt to achieve a mind meld, much as Doc Brown tried to do in Back to the Future. It didn’t work for me, either, though it left me craving Cheez Whiz on Ritz crackers for days.
