Every once in a while I see people change their avatars. Somehow I got accustomed to quickly identifying people by their avy's instead of their name, so I miss people I know many times because they had a particular avy for a long time and all of sudden BAM! new avatar.

Makes me wonder; what makes you change your avatar? Especially if it was one that you had for a long time.

For me, after seeing SNL Digital Short - Threw It On The Ground I just HAD to have it.


Before I simply used an album that I was really into at the time.

I only ever changed my avatar once. (It was an Allen walker one from D-gray man) The reason I changed it, is because I got sick of looking at it, plus the picture wasn't that great in quality. I don't want to change the avatar that I'm using now.

Tend to get bored/annoyed/unhappy with it after a while, so I replace it with something better.

Getting bored or finding something better.

I think that accounts for 99% of the population.

I don't think I'll ever change this one, it's perfect.
I bet you thought that about your Black books one too...

Variety is the spice of life, when I grow tired of something I try something else for a while.

I only changed mine from the still version of this when Fanboy animated it.
And it'll take much more than this universe has to offer to get me to change it again.

Maybe that's a bit of exaggeration, but I love the hell out of this avatar.

I never change mine either.

Other than this week. But that's because I lent it to someone else. And My Avy needed a break from my over posting habits.

I'm pretty sure I'll stick with this one. It's just kind of become a thing for me now.

When something else more awesome comes along, or it's outdated. This one is of me fishing. I was actually thinking of adding a shark or a helicopter or a frog or something cool like that.

I tend to change mine every thousand posts...
But I will be changing it to one of the same character, doing a slightly different laugh.

I changed mine depending on what my focus is on at the time.
When I joined, it was a sasquatch for obvious reasons, changed it to a psycho Sas one, went down the Heroes route with a few Sylar avys as I got into Heroes again then changed it to a Janitor one from Scrubs as thius was my new shiny thing, went through 3 Dr. Cox avatars before settling on this one which will stay for the rest of my time here.

Seeing a movie, TV show, or anime that has a more appealing character than my current one. I haven't really seen one and everyone knows me as "Gun-barrel and face with large hat and glasses, "Badassness" caption".
