Again .. snotty. Get over yourself. The guy just asked a simple question and is curious.
Considering the venom you are spewing over a simple question, I'm wondering about YOUR
pathologies.

Edit: Oh yhea, I don't think many people get the reference to the Fast Show - guess you have to be from the UK

Good point... Fortunately for me my avatar isn't exactly horrible. But I'd like to know why people choose awful avatars too!

Only kidding. Interesting question you have.
What do you think of my avatar? Is it dark, foreboding, negative?
Or is it just etherial with a touch of the spooky? How do you see it?
For those interested .. THIS IS MY AVATAR .
It's a painting in the Philadelphia Museum of Art.

If it wasn't "negative" it wouldn't be interesting. It would only be "peaceful" and "relaxing" and to most people that is boring. People crave the excitement. People crave creepy things and adventure (think of the huge attraction to horror movies).

An avatar is like a leather jacket and long hair and combat boots, it makes you look rough so that people will tend to either shy away or not post such rudeness to someone, at least that is my guess.
