What is the story behind your Avatar?

[talitha]

I created mine on CF, and I'm glad it survived the move. i like the sky because it looks like a portal is open, and I love hand drums.... Hard to see on this tiny version, but I think I'm holding a microphone (or my character is, LOL), because I am a singer/worship-leader.

I think its a pretty picture.

 

[faroukfarouk]

Forgive me for resurrecting an old thread, but my new avatar is a photo of my little brother, Andrew.

It sounds very unremarkable but it's taken me over 45 years to publicly acknowledge him, because he died just before his 2nd birthday, (I was 4) and for years the memories were just far too painful.
I love this photo.

Once remembered, never forgotten.

Once remembered, never forgotten.

True.
I feel I should tell people that I've got 4 brothers. I don't, but he is still part of the family.

Look forward to seeing him one day.

Always part of the family circle in your mind.

Blessings.

[Messy2]

Finally found a nice avatar. It's messy.

During Corrie’s presentations to audiences, she would often hold the back side of a piece of embroidery (pictured), with hundreds of tangled threads hanging from it. Many wondered if she was holding up the wrong side by mistake. As she held up the messy side of the embroidery she would ask...

“Does God always grant us what we ask for in prayer? Not always. Sometimes He says, ‘No.’ That is because God knows what we do not know. God knows all. ...Look at this piece of embroidery. The wrong side is chaos. But look at the beautiful picture on the other side – the right side.”

Triumphantly she flipped the cloth over and revealed an elaborately embroidered crown – symbolizing our crown of eternal life. The crown was intricately stitched, and had threads of many colors, including gold, silver and pearls.

“We see now the wrong side, God sees His side all the time. One day we shall see the embroidery from His side, and thank Him for every answered and unanswered prayer.”

[LaSorcia]

The story behind my avatar is: I'm too lazy to go upstairs to my other computer where all my pics are stored to load one lol.

 

[~RENEE~]

[Lotuspetal_uk]

I'm a big fan of this Japanese version of the Godzilla franchise.

Had this since pretty much joining CF and I am not sure if I can ever change this picture for anything else, lol.

Jesus loves children, and this is reflected in my avatar.

It doesn't come much more biblical Christian than that now does it.

Mine was created using Living Avatars when that was an option a long time ago. That is when the forum was running vB 3.8

I've had this avatar on other sites. I know I haven't used it here till recently, but...

The red & white iron cross symbol in the eye represents the Umbrella Corporation. In video game history they are probably the most evil company in existence. (Unless you love half-life & refer to Black Mesa, but you wouldn't want to get involved in a nerd fight lol)

It being within an eye, is the eyeball of Alice, at the end of Resident Evil :Apocalypse. She's basically a living bio-weapon.

In short, its a symbol to me, a constant reminder, of how truly evil this world is. (Much like monsanto & gmo foods)

Some ppl have pics of doves or Jesus on their things, I have this stuff to remind me never give up, they're still around.
