what is it? PRINCE graphic from VH1's Pop Culture Icon's Series


who is it? uh, I said PRINCE


what is it all about? uh, I said it's from VH1 Blah Blah Blah


why did you pick it? I didn't use an avatar for the first year or so, decided to add one, and was inspired by JANFAN4L's Jane VH1 Blah Blah Blah choice.


is it temporary or do you change it a lot like 2the9s used to? It sticks mainly. I briefly used the Scorpio/Mars symbol, and for awhile used a pic of my 1999 tattoo. This one's a keeper. It was hatted for Christmas last year.

what is it? who is it?

this was an illustration used at some point for promo for the band Looper.


what is it all about? why did you pick it?

I LOVE the Looper robot. Looper made one of my all time favorite CDs (Up A Tree). I used to have a different LooperBot avatar, but I switched for Xmas last year and lost the original. As I searched for a new LooperBot- I came across the picture. I like it better than my old one, cos the LooperBot is a DJ dude.

is it temporary or do you change it a lot like 2the9s used to?

I rarely change my avatar. I think I've had 5 in all my time hear, and I have NO plans to change this one.

you can answer any of the following questions if you want to:




what is it? The album cover of the 1980 classic, "Boy".


who is it? This is U2's very first album. A Post-Punk classic if I ever heard one. smile


what is it all about? A very young and passionate group of punks from Ireland churning out great numbers like "I Will Follow", "Another Time, Another Place", and "Twilight".


why did you pick it? 3 reasons: 1) It's been in heavy rotation on my walkman 2) With the release of U2's new album and all the hype following it, they are the shit at the moment 3) I'm keeping it within the theme of classic New Wave albums that I use as avatars, and this is one of them.


is it temporary or do you change it a lot like 2the9s used to? Yes it is. The next one will probably be another great New Wave record.

what is it? Part of a portrait of Ian Curtis, lead singer of Joy Division.

who is it? I just told you.

what is it all about? It celebrates my recent rediscovery of Joy Division.

why did you pick it? It's a beautiful picture and often only insiders recognise it. Just one did, so far.

is it temporary or do you change it a lot like 2the9s used to?It is temporary. I have had one avatar really, since I came here and as soon as I get bored with it (the pic, not the music) I just revert back.

edit PS; Just reverted back to the old skool Gooey avvie.

what is it? A cartoon.

who is it? Calvin of Calvin & Hobbes fame. A creation by Bill Watterson. Who stopped drawing the cartoon because he hates commercialism and he thought he had run out of ideas.

what is it all about? It is Calvin having a naughty thought. I like naughty.

why did you pick it? Because my handle is Gooey The Hamster. Real C&H afficionados know what my handle is derived from.

what is it? It's 'Mr Happy' of the Mr. Men cartoons by Roger Hargreaves.


who is it? See above.


what is it all about? See below.


why did you pick it? I chose it because it reflects the way I wanted to be this year. 'Mr Happy' is also a Prince track, so I thought it rather fitting.


is it temporary or do you change it a lot like 2the9s used to? Temporary and change mean the same thing don't they?! Anyway, I was renowned for having Woody Allen avatars for a while. I've also flirted with Diego Maradona (not literall) and a couple of others; however, Mr Happy has been around for quite a while now.

sad I don't have one. The reason is, everytime I find a picture I like I try to upload it and I always have problems. It could be b/c I work a lot so I am usually on the org when I am at work, never when I'm home. I guess I need to try to do it at home on my own computer. neutral
