What/who is on your icon, and why? I think an icon says a lot about someone, almost as much as a username, even though it's just a little square with a picture in it.

This is just an image I found on Google. Not really sure who it is but there are a lot of pictures about this character. There's one in particular that I want to use, but I'm not sure the mods will allow it.

Ah, I see. It's really cute! It makes a good avatar.

Thank you

Well obviously mine's a book with earbuds. Reading and listening to music are two of my favourite activites.

A random picture of Takumi from Fire Emblem Fates that I found on Google when I was looking up #BlameTakumi memes when I was bored.

My icon depends on my mood, so it changes often, like my profile. I change the theme every time.

Mine is a 100% realistic picture of the big sad baby.

Mine is an old (7 years plus) digital drawing of my worldbuilding project, Exodus.

Occasionally though you may see a Celtic knot I fiddled with in PS or a copper dragon my pal & RPR user Wizard drew.

Or if it's time to be nerdy, something gaming related.

Looks really neat! I like it when people use their own work.

omg, he's adorkable

My avatar is meant to truly display the duality of man. *Adjusts hipster glasses.*

Nah, it's just an ampharos, an electric sheep pokemon, because I like Pokemon.

I've been meaning to get around to changing mine because I've had it for a long while, but my current avatar is Elsa from Frozen. It's a free-to-use from deviantART.
I'm a HUGE Frozen fan because I took a Hans Christian Andersen course in college, and he's the one that wrote 'The Snow Queen', which inspired Frozen's story. So I know all the neat little behind the scenes things, the nods to the original story and Andersen, etc.

My icon is a montage of all the major deaths from Harry Potter. I've loved Harry Potter ever since I was about 9 or 10, mostly because it was the first real book series I had ever read. And because J.K. Rowling is my hero.

Current icon? That's actually drawn by me. It's my male self with his "epic nerd glasses." He featured in my entry for RPR's Comic Contest. ...I do mean to color the icon and fix up his hair later on. (It's too poofy up top to me.)

The icon before this one was a character from Touhou with their skin darkened. (Reimu Hakurei, I think.) I thought the character herself was dark-skinned until I bothered to look it up and turns out, she's not. It's safe to assume the original artwork was darkened in Photoshop.

I have a thing about using dark-skinned characters to represent myself, so I was kinda disappointed at first; I got over it and used it anyway for the longest while until recently.

I think you should finish it. It'll look great if you do! I can appreciate when people do their own character drawings and avatars. It shows that they put a lot of effort into their roleplaying. (no offense to all you others though)

Just Hobbes transcending the concept of "cool."

Uhm... I'm on my icon? ^^'
