I am wondering what explanation everyone has behind their current Avatars (the picture below your Username) as well any Avatars that have been used in the past.

As for me, my current Avatar is Hikaru Shindo of Hikaru No Go. My previous Avatars have included Ryoma Echizen of Prince of Tennis, Conan Edogawa of Detective Conan, Sho Kazamatsuri of Whistle (my favorite sports Anime), and Monkey D Luffy of One Piece. In case you haven't figured out the pattern, my Avatars have virtually all been lead characters in various Anime series.

However, there was one exception. Between Friday, October 13th 2006, and Halloween of that year, my Username was temporarily changed to moGOULmember and my Avatar was a Gengar with blood spilling out.

It's a picture of, well me.

Okay, not really...well, I always kinda make my "cartoonish" self look pretty bishounen-y. Heh.
 
A while ago, something (people naming their pets after food, perhaps?) prompted me to think of a shiny Furret named Raspberry. (Or was it any pink Pokémon whose name was going to be Raspberry [because I'd never heard that used as a name], and I saw that shiny Furret was pink? I dunno, maybe the former.) Anyway, I was thinking up a manga/fanfic that would involve that Furret, and in it, the main character catches/saves a shiny baby Sentret that he later names Raspberry.

So when I was thinking of what I wanted to use as an avatar, I thought of my original idea for Raspberry. Obviously, I did end up using her so.

I'm pretty sure that any other avatars I've had here came after my initial use of this one, and they all had to do with David Spade, who I think is totally hot/terribly cute sometimes.
 
I thought the toy in my avatar was funny so I used it. It makes me laugh whenever I see it. Usually I use a picture of my fursona, but I didn't want to this time and it's the only thing I could think of. Not much meaning there. >_>
 
Currently it's Man-Thing. Because...why not? Most of the ones I've used here, especially over the last couple of years, have been Marvel Comics characters. Not much to explain.
 
I made it when I was bored, in anticipation of Diamond and Pearl. My old one was the Battle Frontier logo, because I really like the Battle Frontier.
 
It's Karin/Karen from a PokeSho picture. Because at the time I was wanting to have a Karen picture as my avatar and I was going to use one of PokeSho's character pics and then this picture came out and had Karen in it so I just cropped it down and used it.

Previous avatars? Uh. I think my previous one was just one of the Umbreon sprites (because Umbreon is my favorite pokemon).
 
My previous avatar was Fuwaride and Riolu, some of my favorite Pokemon in an awesome picture.

The current one is to express my new love of Romeo x Juliet, or more accurately, The Red Whirlwind <3
 
It's Ash. With a beard. It's actually an Onix's fantasy image of Ash after Team Rocket described him, from one of the BF fillers I think it was. I fell in love with the image, because dude, it's Ash with a beard. And I like beards.
 
I *heart* Torchic. Before this it was Vileplume, because Vileplume is my favorite, and before that it was Lugia, because of my "obsession" with Jirarudan. But I change my icon every 5000 posts.
 
My previous avatar was of Kyle Dunamis from Tales of Destiny 2. I wanted to have something Tales-related as my avatar since I love the series (And Tales of Destiny 2 is my second favorite Tales).

My current avatar happens to be Sasuke from Mystical Ninja/Ganbare Goemon. I just found myself into an obscure game series, and one from my childhood nonetheless, that I had to change my avatar to something Mystical Ninja related. So I have one of my favorite character of the series as my current avatar.

Mainly, I'm just representing my obsession with my avatar.

At some point, you should try having an avvie that matches your username (if you'd like, I can make you one; I've got a big collection of Tales of Phantasia artwork as well as screenshots from the official anime). Also, there is an anime of Goemon - I've seen it and it's pretty cool (albeit goofy kiddy kind of stuff, but cool nonetheless; has hilarious villains, too).

My previous avatar was of myself cosplaying as Kankuro from Naruto at SakuraCon 2005 (which I proudly attended as a genuine guest of honor).

The current one is my 2nd most fave poke-bish of all time, Tabitha (my #1 being my beloved James/Kojiro). If I were a character in the Pokemon world, I'd totally 'do it' with him...passionately (and of course, I'd be a member of Team Magma). :awww:
 
My current avatar is a screen of Team Rocket scheming with classic distrustful looks on thier faces. I enjoy the gag of Team Rocket always trusted by the twerps/characters (or Pokemon) of the day no matter how obvious the scam is.

some of previous avatars are:

Heero Yui
Jakotsu
Team Rocket blasting off with Jessie eating ramen
April Fools avatar of a Salmon
 
Sabrina is hot.

More specifically, Sabrina was the first video game girl I encrushed upon, and I still think she's the hottest Pokemon girl what ever has been. The hair, the steely gaze, the obsession with dolls, the telekinetic superpowers... she's a winner in my book.
 
Mine is an animation Kaorin from Azumanga Daioh (the animation itself isn't from the tv series, but from the Azumanga Daioh movie). She's a character who has a somewhat odd obsession with and crush on Sakaki. She's my favorite character from Azumanga Daioh, partly because I feel empathy for any character who feels unrequited love for another character, most mostly because she's so darn cute.

Azumanga Daioh is tops. You've got fantastic taste. Kaorin's one of my favorites, but nothing caps Osaka in my humble opinion. he-cho

<--Is a poster at /azu/, although horribly negligent.
