It's Special Agent Dale Cooper - do I even need a reason!?

Well, if you insist, I think the reason was I wanted a new avatar, and I had a Twin Peaks quote ( "Damn good coffee, and hot!" ) for my personal text.

As for mine, the easy answer is that it's blue, Christmasy, and low-key, much like myself lately.

I marvel at your ability to put together a string of marvellous blue haired avatars :)

Also Silverfyre's continual string of suited gents. Perhaps an easier task but, even so, fine taste!

Very good :-)  Not precisely relevant to this thread, but Moraline has noticed that I will sometimes reference 'The Coz', and apparently has just as photographic a memory of his routines as I do (or would that be 'phonographic'?)  ;D

I chose my avatar because I like Ashley Brown's fairy art and I also like Gothic art and this was a good blending between the two. ^.^

Far eyes

I chose this a very long time ago, and had a specific and good reason for it having forgotten what that was i keep it because i just got use to it :P
What a man says: "Through roleplaying, I want to explore the reality of the female experience and gain a better understanding of what it means to be a woman."

What he means: "I like lesbians".

<--- Kato and her pet cuddling in the snowfall because it's warm yet wintery image.

(Here's the full image) I chose this one because it truly spoke to me. I feel that people believe that they are seeing one thing, but within my mind it's something else completely. There is a strong story behind the picture that myself and someone else knows. Also the color was perfect, blonde yet almost silvery hair, gray eyes and a look that will have everyone guessing. (I think that I've found my default AV for life)

<-- I just couldn't resist changing it again. This series is one of my favorites. I was feeling a need to see some greenery. I'm a nature girl at heart.

Nameless One

I really loved Planescape: Torment, in my opinion one of the best videogames I ever played. And I felt a strong empathy with the main character, while I usually cheer for the villains...
It is "Torment". It is that which draws all tormented souls to you. The flesh knows it suffers, even when the mind has forgotten. And so you wear the rune always.

Because I like a nice ass... And a nice back... And a nice chest... And a nice pair of briefs...

Oh, let's just settle for "because it's damn HOT!"
  ;D

Silverfyre

Again, the love of Ze Captain and to match the wife's avatar.


diamonedsky

For New Years.. and 2013 is the year of the snake.

Plus, I just think it's simply a gorgeous image. :-)

Been in a Touhou sort of mood, and Tenshi (the girl I'm using for my avi) is one of my top three favorite characters.

I actually used to change mine very regularly depending on mood or something I might find online and like.  But since Elliquiy has changed its appearance and we don't see our own avatars on the main page anymore I dont' think to. 
I have my current one because I didn't have to resize it - for no other reason.  But I have others that I love because there's usually something romantic about them that appeals to me.
