My name is actually something one of my boyfriends from when I was in Junior High School had come up with. When I first started to play games one of my firsts was Starcraft. That also being one of my first multi player games it was the account name he made for me. I had a dark phase...we all went through those, right? Ever since then I've always tried to lay claim to it. It really goes AnGeL.SlayeR but most often you can't use caps.
My picture is of some girl..I really don't know where it came from. People often say it resembles me...except I have a button nose. hehe ^_^ I think she's a sad clown of some sort. Being a dabbler in the arts I always found this picture to be very beautiful. Well drawn and I've never been a big color person so the grey washes suit me well. It just goes along with my personality more than I'd like to admit I suppose.

Yuki - Taken.
Black - Taken.
I had stopped using my old internet nickname 'NATO.Caliber', because of a long, embaressing history together.
I tried using my first name, which is taken for some reason.
I then tried putting my real life nickname there, but that was obviously taken.
So yeah, NATO.Caliber it is.
And the avatar...
No idea. I just like it. (Yes, I know WHAT it is, just not WHY I have it. Don't rant at me.)

I've been using Spinwhiz since I was mudding and RP chatting back in the day (probably 13 years ago I'd say). I came up with it because I wanted to be a PR guy (pr guys back in the day were known as spin doctors) and I figured Whiz was smart...so Spinwhiz was born!
The avatar is me with my huge nose and a hat (hat is fake, nose is real).

After a long parade of usernames from Pokémon, I realized I needed a new, original name. I love cats, and I was trying to think up something to prefix "cat," something simple, easy to remember, and all one word since I hate underscores. I just sat down with a word doc and spammed a bunch of different short nonsense words until I hit one that I thought sounded cool, "Sylo," and stuck with it.
The avatar is a clip from a photoshop prank I did that's actually become somewhat well-known on the web (not nearly as famous as the "sniper kitten" one, though).

The name's from one of the first sci-fi series I ever really got into. (Bonus points if you can guess it from the name). The numbers are an alphanumeric representation of "Andy", which is a shortening of my name. I haven't picked an avatar yet, but I will soon, I promise
My first name is James, and when i found out about the super mario bros 2 switcheroo i did some research on the term Doki, which is used as sort of like fun and excitement. somewhere i also read that it's japanese onimatapea (spelling?) for the sound of the beating heart. that sounded cool so i stuck with it
and who doesn't love the blue bomber?

My usual name choices are typically something starting with "Amber", "Ever", "Ember", "Krash" or "Kaboom", and ending with "Fall", "Fail", "Flight", "Start", "Frost", "Dummy" or "Sized".
Needless to say, I get some interesting combinations from time to time.
As for the avatar, I needed to find a picture quick since I don't like entering a forum with no avatar, and I've always thought the pope was sort of a noob, so having him shout at noobs always causes me to giggle just a tiny bit on the inside.

My scree name is from the game Defcon: Everybody Dies, which was the game I was playing at the time I subscribed. In the game, Defcon 1 authorizes full militian strength, including nukes.
My avatar is a random lich I made. Some lower contrast monitors can't see the red background, but instead makes it look like a skull's fading into darkness.

I use BaldingSteve cause it was the name of my very first character in an rpg (Baldur's gate, dwarf) and my avatar is Whaleboy cause, well, its a long story
Also, I use Mac_and_cheese in CSS cause it was my original color for my first clan, Power Rangers Elite Force

Who is your favorite name and avatar?
Elbie-Jay I think ties Spinwhiz for cool avatar, and Fire Daemon's name is my fav.

I was using the name from the book The Once and Future King for my PSN ID.
However, the PS3 made writing a little clunky, and I mispelled it. However, I just decided to keep it anyway, and I have used that as my handle since, on PSN, Gametrailers, Xbox Live, etc.
And I like Penny Arcade.

I use Aidanadv across the Internet as a screen name. I first used it in RuneScape because my friend who introduce me to the game's screen name was Ryanadv. Adv is short for advance, so are characters in the game were supposed to better than us in real life.
As for my avatar, it is the Scinfaxi logo from the Dawn of Victory mod for Sins of a Solar Empire.

My name comes from a character I made in Phantasy Star Online. He was a rather portly fellow. I intended to name him The Great Fat Man, but there was only enough space for The Great Fa.
As for my avatar, I just really love old games and happen to be a shamelessly devoted Nintendo fanboy. The little Mario sprite just SPOKE to me.

My last name in real life is Johnston, so people call me Johnny. One bottle of originality later, my name was born. If I hadn't used Johnn Johnston (I mis-spelt Johnny) I would have used Loopy Guard, after I took out 8 people while defending the flag in a Halo 2 game of CTF.
As for my avatar, I had read CAD about 30 seconds before signing up.
