Avatar Palooza
It’s hard to believe but the first time I decided to change my avatar it was a difficult decision, one I hesitated and delayed for weeks. I know that sounds weird but I have this –uh, deal, where I don’t like change… but I feel it’s good for me to challenge myself and force myself to make changes – even something as silly and small as switching an avatar. The first few times were tough but once I got a taste it was "Katy bar the door!" Now I’m an avatar switchin’ name changin’ fool.
I don’t have all of the oldies, but here a few that remain.
A scene from Vertigo, during the writing of my Hitchcock thread
Fringe – I used this briefly in celebration of the 2nd season premier
For Halloween, used with film quote “We all go a little mad sometimes”
I’ve always liked Supergirl. I used this with a quote from an XTC song, “That’s really super, Supergirl”
A member here actually wrote me about who this was. This is the gal from Terminator 3, I had just watched the funny rifftrax for this flick, and coupled it with a quote from Kevin - "How can you fear someone so cute and pouty"
This was another I received a PM about. It’s Joanna Frank, the Bee girl from the Outer Limits episode… “ZZZZZZ” - Here’s a fuller pic
A parade of Devo album covers, while I was doing my Devo blog
“Have a heart” – a reminder to myself,
For a spell, I was simply myself
I can’t remember the quote I used, but this is MST3Ks own muffiny haired bachelor.
Moss, from the hilarious Brit-com, “The IT Crowd” – I can’t remember the funny quote I used from the show.
I can’t locate most of my Iron Man/Pepper Potts jpgs and gifs, but I still had this one hanging around.
For Thanksgiving, Arthur Carleson from WKRP
Jaws from Bond – quote was a tribute to Captain Hygiene... “Remember to polish your teeth every day”
The was for the Superbowl, Clay from the Packers... “Fear the hair!”
And the current one – This was a fun one to build, though I was limited to 12 images. Can you name them all?
If not they are…
Brando with cat, Audrey Hepburn, Buster Keaton, Cate Blanchett, Cary Grant, Veronica Lake, Jack Nicholson (in Chinatown), Gwyneth Paltrow, Bill Murray (as Steve Zissou), Jobyna Ralston (silent comedian, Harold Lloyd's charming leading lady), John Wayne (from True Grit) and Sean Connery as Bond
Old avatars that are missing in action: My original Tor Johnson, several Beatles and John Lennon, Lincoln Hayes (Mod Squad), Hendrix, "The women of MST" slide show and much much more that have slipped from memory.
