What's up with that Avatar?

[TOOL460002]

Pwrl that's cool. Trippy way to arrive at something creative.

Thanks. I could babble on about it, but sometimes less is more.

If you were around at the time you know. If you weren't around then you don't need to know.

Mine is one of my favorite chops that I did in this thread.

My inspired pose

 

[Robroy]

My avatar was inspired by me having to wear a junp suit and a respirator to do wood working.

What is behind your avatar that is not obvious?

I was practicing and had one of our chicks on the desktop next to the keyboard. She really wanted to jump off and jumped right onto my neck. My wife snapped a picture. She stayed until I needed her to get off. She deadened the E string but it annoyed her so she moved her foot so that it was just on the neck.

My avatar is a detail shot of my favorite bass 1982 Carvin LB50 Koa bass, Taz is his name and he hates butterflies. That bass has been my main squeeze and accompanied me to nearly every gig all over the world on five continents.

I have often wondered about people's avatars, it is odd the impressions I get from some of them.

 

[GKon]

Mine is a pic of me, throwing the devil horns.
What's not obvious is this was originally a promo pic of my last band, with the guitarist to the left, and drummer to the right.

Shortly after this photoshoot, both the guitarist and drummer were out of the band and replaced by others (it's a long story).

I really liked the pic otherwise, so had my friend Photoshop them out of the picture.

 

[Snakeman1066]

Um....I'm a Herpetologist......would have thought mine was obvious

 

[Bryan R. Tyler]

Mine is a photo of my favorite electrical outlet in my old house.

Probably should've zoomed in a little more.

 

[sharkbait130]

Anyone that can't figure out the relation between my screen name and my avatar should have been a drummer. The 130 is the depth I am certified to dive to. Dun dun dun dun dun dun.

 

[Mike N]

Mine is the 79 Blazer I built and have owned for nearly 25 years. 44" Swampers, one ton axles and a 454.

 

[two fingers]

My TB name is two fingers. The avatar is a hand holding up two fingers.

And the theme of the hand is 'cuz 'Merica! That's why!

No seriously. I'm a patriotic bastard to the core. That doesn't mean I hate any other country. I'm fact I love a lot about other countries and have been to several. I just really love mine.

 

[bluesblaster]

nothing at all really, it was a photo I took at a car show I thought looked kind of cool. Sometimes a hood ornament is just a hood ornament

 

[GregC]

Mine is two of my musical heroes, Johnny Cash and Joe Strummer. They sang a duet on Bob Marley's Redemption Song in the early 2000s.

Yeah...and next time get those silly basses out of the way.

What do you think this is - a bass forum?

 

[FilterFunk]

Mine is a self portrait.

Your eyes...they're so...hypnotic...

 

[Dug2]

mine is stuff you should know to be on this site.

 

[Humbled]

Your eyes...they're so...hypnotic...

I've always liked that avatar. Faces are easy to see in twin-fifteen-over-a horn old-school studio monitors, but I've never seen one quite like @S-Bigbottom's. Very cool, IMHO...

 

[FilterFunk]

My avatar represents three things:

1) I write and produce children's music, so I found this image when looking for appropriate images for my now-defunct website.
2) I'm very much influenced by "on the one" James Brown and P-Funk music.
3) I'm African-American, so the color of the hand suits me. Not a deal-maker or breaker; it just happened to fit.

Cool. Any music we might know as parents?
