Have you ever seen an Avatar that particularly stuck out to you? It doesn't have to be good, flashy or anything just merely something that has caught your eye and caused it to linger. They can be anything at all, funny, simple, ugly, complex what ever it is.
Also preferably, say a reason why you found it noticeable.
I'll throw some out there.
This is a particular favorite of mine, as it's simple and funny. Also it just seems so bizarre. The users name is "BloodyThoughts" (I wonder why
)
I have a nerd-on for infinite loops like this. You should see the one I get for Pararaptors current avatar *drool*. I just Really like infinite loops. I forget the name of this Escapist. *cries*
*Edit
Thank you very much Insanum, the name of the gentlemen with this Avatar is MurderousToaster.
Then finally, I like CounterAttack's [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/view/CounterAttack] Avatar most of all. Why?
Look at the damn thing
I giggle at it profusely. Sure it's not great, but the sheer oddity of it keeps me amused.
The most Notable Avatar ever however? It has to be this
Yes. The avatar shown is the most notable because it isn't even There. It sticks out very noticeably, more so then anything else.
So fellow Escapists, I ask you. What are some notable Avatars you have seen in your Forum lurking days? The Avatars do not even have to be from this forum, merely if they stand out.
[HEADING=1]Edit:[/HEADING]
I want to point out that Notable=/= Awesome. A crappy Avatar can still be Notable, as it has something that catches your eye. If you're posting an Avatar say WHY it is notable to you. I'd rather it not be a popularity contest.
[HEADING=1]*EDIT[/HEADING]
And now I've found the other one I was desperately looking for.
I find it notable due to the colours, the fact that the sizing is different from normal and also that it rapidly changes the icons on display. My eyes are attracted to motion, and as such it's hard to pry my eyes from it.

For the uninformed, to add a picture to the forums, get the source of the picture (in Internet Explorer, right click the picture, then properties, then look for image location then copy it) Or for FireFox, (Right click the picture then click copy image location)
After copying said image location, put it inbetween this [*img]ImageLocationGoesHere[*/img] remove the Asterisks, and it will work.
