I think the one I have now shall be used forever, but I change when I feel it doesnt suit me anymore.

Strangely, I rarely have the inclination to change my avatar on this forum. It doesn't seem worth it to throw people off, and I think I hit it nicely with Ciel. I am on my third avatar, I suppose...changed to Assassin for Halloween, and to Ilya for the winter. I think I might stick with an Ilya avatar when winter ends, though...

Strangest reason I'd ever changed my avatar? On the City of Heroes boards, when tensions were running high before the changeup between Issues 11 and 12, I finally got sick of all the flames and arguments, so I changed my avatar to Colette Brunel (it was her or Tohru Honda) and started deliberately acting as friendly, conciliatory, and non-snarky as I could. It was probably a futile gesture in the big picture, but I like to think it helped in a small way occasionally.

When I get bored with the previous one. I'll only change my current one when I figure out how to animate one.

I first used the three characters from Golden Axe, but then changed it to the Pokemon Wobbuffet in a Christmas hat because it was Christmas. Then I couldn't find the Golden Axe picture once Christmas had finished so I chose a picture of a snail because it was there.

I do tend to 'marry' my avatar. So far, only changed it once and it was a 'new year; new avatar' reason.

I'd believe it. The 'evil monkey' is awesome.

I usually never change my avatar. I have had this since the beginning here. Or, well, at first it wasn't animated. And now it has the snow instead of rain. Was going to change back, but my real computer is out of order, and I don't have the right avatar on this computer.

I like my avatar. Even though it is sad and depressing :p

Seriously?

you just right click and press properties, or if you're using [sub]motherfucking[/sub] vista, you go into computer settings.
