I KNEW IT WAS PROTOMAN!

ProtoMan has to be the guy I would want to be most. Seriously. Bow down to the sword-armed awesomeness!
You sir, have just earned a position as my second in command if I ever take over the world. Protoman is indeed one of the best characters ever in gaming. Whenever they had him fight Megaman all I could think was "Man, couldn't I just like shoot Megaman and play the rest of this as the guy who actually knows what he's doing? He's got a sword for christ sake!"
I love how in Battle Network 5: Team Protoman, you can actually play AS him!

Also, there's a bit where you play as him, fighting a grey version of MegaMan!

Good times.

Did not know that and must now purchase Battle Network 5: Team Protoman.

I've changed it about five times.

I liked my Andy Warhol pic, but I'm in love with my Metropolis pic.
This year, my school used Metropolis as the basis for a Rock Eisteddfod performance.
I'm pretty sure that's what Fritz Lang had in mind too!

Please tell me you used cardboard boxes with alfoil stuck on!

I probably won't ever change my avatar, being that people seem to really like the ol' Bob Ross. I don't think I'd dare to dishonor the man anyways, he'd paint my death and make it happen. That's exactly what happened to Lennon, and I'm not taking any chances...

I was thinking of making it a picture of myself, but I have one of those on my profile so anyone who wants to know what I look like can do that or see my myspace which is also featured on my profile. So Bob Ross will be staying.

Yeah, I've always noticed that one pixel in the top right quarter of the picture, it stays brown, but I see it. You keep changing the Red value by two or three in either direction. And sometimes you take a bit of the red off some of the purple pixels. Be consistent dammit!

I never change mine. It'll always be my custom-made vault boy in Black Mesa logo. I have thought about raising the vault boy a little bit, though. If only I could figure out how to incorporate a radiation symbol (STALKER) and the Deus Ex symbol without it being over-crowded.

Never!

Angels Will Fall, Mountains Will Topple And Gods Will Give Their Final Breaths.

But The ULTRA JOE Will Still Be Kicking Ass In The Pixelated Blue Helmet.
Yet you still wanted to copy my old one before being called out on it, and a fight to the death getting ever closer.
That was for kicks, i never actually took off the helmet.

never with any consistancy, I'm very sporatic with that sort of thing, but I think I'm going to keep Frohman for a while.

Whenever Hay Joe changes his, it throws me threw a loop. Go back to the guy with sunglasses and frizzy white hair! I liked that guy! And Jumplion! What happened to the stick figure doing windmills!

Never have, never will. Icons are just too much part of the community. For example, after Darth Mobius changed his avatar from that star destroyer, I didn't recognize him as easily or as quickly and was therefore able to take him a little more seriously, for a little while.

When I make a reference to yahtzee and someone calls me creepy.

I've said I enjoy it when characters in videogames with unresponsive controls die for not doing what I want them to, I was called creepy, look at my avvy.

Yes, these Sith Democratic Party avatars are a terrible way to go. They make the members hard to recognize, and can cause confusion.

Maybe the Escapist could just make a trophy for it? That might cause people to want to join just for that, though.

I do it to try and trip people up but you're too smart for that.
