Your BLF Avatar

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.

I lol’d. :smiley:

RC, you should make it beat instead! :partying_face:

1. I love (American) football and I was born and raised in New Orleans La.

2. It’s the Fleur De Lis from the New Orleans Saints.

3.

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.

Old sig:

New sig:

...

The new sig takes up less real estate on your screen, despite being dozens of kilobytes larger.

I think it looks much better.

The old sig looks intense and somewhat angry.

The new one looks sexier to me.

New avatar...

and large version:

Nice!

Thanks!

I thought the old avatar with the heart wasn't masculine enough for me.

...

On some forums, when you click on someone's avatar, you get a larger pic.

That would be nice for BLF, but maybe it's not possible with our Drupal forum software.

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 :slight_smile:

Homemade avatars and signatures are cool.

I can only do simple image editing, so I usually just "borrow" images from the interweb.

Gosh Raccoon City, I feel really bad to be the one to break this to you but, "real men don't use umbrellas".

The artwork is very nice though.

Then I'm not a real man!

It doesn't rain here all that often, but I get out the red and white umbrella when the rain gets annoying.

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.

Time for a LS9 and long travel lol.

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.

Yes, my avatar is photoshopped.

The blue sky is a dead giveaway :slight_smile:

I changed my signature pic a little.

I got rid of the images of all the FW3A flashlights on the left and right of Milla's eyes.

I am still undecided. no idea what I should pick.

If you're a fan of Cyberpunk 2077, how about an image from that?
