Mine is Johnny Depp portraying Raoul Duke in the movie "Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas" based on the book of the same name by Hunter S. Thompson. I'm pretty sure it's when he's looking at the bats, not when he asks the hitchhiker to get in the car.

The text under the avatar is a parody of when he says "We can't stop here! This is bat country!". "Buy the ticket, take the ride" is something they also use a lot in the movie.

I wondered what that was. I think I sent you a PM about it, and said something like 'it's clearly not you, what is it?'

when you didn't answer, I assumed it WAS you and I'd offended you somehow.  :oops:

 :oops: no way guyjin, the PM system on this board is kind of weird. i already missed a lot of PMs from others since there is nothing which become noticeable when a new one comes in (like a popup applet or a number of new PMs in the header).

The only way I know when I get a PM is when the system emails me.

people who complain about cheap characters in fighting games simply don't know how to play their own favorite well.

My avatar is the pilot from Rude Breaker, another shmup that Compile developed back in 1996.
This one game few ppl have played, so its a safe bet that there's no chance anyone will have the same avatar.
Plus, the picture of pilot laid back and chillin is just the way how I am most of the day. Pretty much slacking around.

My avatar is Airzonk tied up to a science table, about to be molested by a giant green space lizard wearing a monacle. I ripped it from PcDenjin with MagicEngine. I also dropped my name in there with photoshop  8)

If you don't know what my avatar is then you don't belong on these boards.

Likewise if you don't know why it's significant to me.

I always thought that was a pinball table depicting a Mexican lizard about to eat the cookie form of Wilford Brimely!

And for some reason I just thought that was normal, so I never asked why...  :lol:

Mine is a school photo of myself from 10th grade.

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).
