    I love the anime Puella Magi Madoka Magica. My avatar is one of the main characters, Madoka. She gives me hope. (if you've seen the show you know what I mean :slight_smile:)

    It's from a webcomic I enjoy. I liked that one panel, so I figured it'd make a nice avatar.

    whenever i dry my hair after a shower it sticks up and i look vaguely like a porcupine. also that's my signature face because i never know what to do in photos. also it's my fb profile (ik, unoriginal).

    I can identify a lot with House, his sarcasm, and overall frustration with people.

    Well... I searched for an image of a nice revolution fist, then made it red and black with my totally legally purchased CS6 photoshop.

    It's a Gibson ES-335, my favorite guitar. If only I could afford one...

    I'm surprised you didn't grab CC. Apparently they're still selling Creative Suite? I thought they had finally made the full transition and completely ditched the Suite.

    Anyway, funny enough, mine was made in Photoshop CS6 as well.

    As part of a project in response to the Illinois marriage failure as well as in celebration of Hivebent Day (6/12) with the decision on DOMA and Prop 8 coming up on top of that, I decided to create a spoof of the red HRC symbol/flag for each of the 12 post-scratch Homestuck trolls with an argument supporting same sex marriage that would also correspond to what the character would say. So for example, mine is Sollux and it says "Because it's between 2 consenting people" but since trolls have their own typing quirk, it actually says "because iit2 between 2 con2entiing people".
