Subject: Bungie.net's avatars

Per Audacia Ad Astra

To me, an avatar is more than just 'that'.
They have subjects, moods/emotions and hidden meanings.
Here we have an evil, sinister Elite. For the more serious user, we have a serious Carter. I would recommend this for a comical, positive user. Guilty Spark is a good example of a user who thinks critically and relies on pure logic. This one suggests an evil character. I have been seen as someone who thinks too much in the past, maybe I've done it again.

I cannot rest with a single avatar for more than a month. I get bored, I feel different and thus my avatar needs a matching mood.

Which ones do you admire?

When I switch my avatar temporarily, I feel naked.

(not a sob story, just interesting) - I use my Reach emblem which I made because my friend died, and the other was in intensive care due to an overdose, the friend who died loved purple and green, and the friend who has survived, loves the joker, kept it as my emblem ever since.

I love Grifball and therefore love this avatar.

Brilliant story, though. They live in your avatar.

I've had this avatar since before ODST came out. Of course it was blue instead of black before.

I don't use the mustache bomb. The mustache bomb uses me.
wait...

KillaGod is my alternate Bungie.net account with my Gamertag linked to that account!

Ty92PrideFireZ is my new alternate account with my new and permanent Gamertag linked to that account.

My Halo: Reach emblem has no resemblence of me in any way, though, this avatar may suit me in the future if I feel the mood is right.

My DeviantArt Gallery - For my Photoshop stuff, go have a look!

Had the Daisho as my emblem in Halo 3 from the beginning, set it as my avatar here shortly after, only changing it after ODST just for the darker blue. I can't imagine what I'd ever change it to. I am the white Katana on blue background...

This tends to make me dismiss the poster as a troll, I'm sure a bunch of trolls used that avatar around Reach-release time.

I get that same reflex often. It just screams troll to me for some reason.

I stick with this one because I've yet to see someone else with same emblem/background combo.

Also because Halo 2 was the best.

I have to say, the huge variety in emblems Bungie offers really deserves a tip of the hat in their direction. Some of the more humorous ones are especially good, with their Bungie wit that reminds us that Bungie doesn't have to take itself too seriously (which is the main thing that I admire of them as a company!)

As for my emblem, it's been my in-game emblem since I started playing Halo multiplayer, and I've grown quite attached to it!

I kind of wish my avatar had an actual meaning besides "I'm to lazy to come up with my own, so i'll just copy hosrebite's emblem", as for the default site avatars i can see where your coming from, basically anyone without a custom emblem i label as "new", except for a select few, and everyone with the default webmaster i label as troll, for obvious reasons.

I have sometimes looked for another avatar, but have returned to this because it fits me perfectly. Not having this avatar makes me feel someone else, not me. Thus I'm with the avatar I originally chose due to my love of Grunts.

I was a finalist :P

My avatar shows someone that holds the world record in both long jump and high jump.

Because, you know, the guy to the left of me jumps high and far.

I've always like the Carrier Forms, Even though they're a bit creepy (Always flapping their arms). And the pencil drawing is quite detailed.

Whenever I try to change avatar it just feels odd.

Two makes there more than speakers.

My Avatar is actually a picture of my face.

8/5/08 Bungie Favorites- NoEnd
7/1/09 Bungie Favorites- RECON Devil
9/9/09 Bungie Favorites- Champion
5/22/10 HaloCharts Favs- Prey

The SI for now. But one of the screenshots from Halo 3 I took is an avatar, so I use that one a lot too.

  • 05.14.2012 12:57 PM PDT

I usually change my avatar every few weeks or so.

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.
/slow clap for respect

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

I love ODST's and Cortana, that's why my emblems are usually of them exclusively.
