Not too shy to talk

I am always wondering about the avatars in the forums, what they mean and why peoples have chosen them.

So this thread is for introducing your avatar to the other users.

Ok, I will start. My avatar is not difficult to recognise I think. It shows Lorraine, the first Amiga prototype which was demonstrated in 1984. I am still amazed how this thing worked. And when it crashed, the engineers quickly localized the ICs and changed them during the presentation.

Why have I chosen it, do I really need to explain? I have warm feelings for the good old past and the Amiga dream as it was back in the day when it all started. Sometimes I wish that more of this dream would be saved and kept during the current times that are dominated by lawsuits, lawyers, disappointments and unfulfilled promises.

LOL! Maybe it means:

"A man in the full bloom of his life"

By the way, from which horror movie is you avatar derived from?

Mine is just Nasher, my youngest cat sitting on top of my CRT monitor while I was trying to do some "stuff"... Now that I have a flat screen, she's having some difficulties standing on top of it !

My name is Alex and I'm a South Park fan. When I saw the episode "Red Man's Greed" there was this character with the name Alex on his shirt and I thought that this would be a nice avatar. So I Googled a bit and found it.

Alex.

Do you also do body-building?

@ssolie

I hope it's not my liver that you plan to eat! Have I told you that I live a very unhealthy life with a lot of alcohol, tabaco and drugs?

And just for the record, I am not a census taker!

@xeron

Does that apply to all cheese or do you favour a special kind of cheese?

Do you really have a red-white checkered guitar or did you edit it with Photoshop?

No but wearing them.

Photoshop. But actually it's a nice idea if I ever will make my own guitar so maybe I could paint it in red and white. (Or maybe not.)
