After nearly 3 lengthy years of indecisiveness and countless hours spent browsing the avatar selection, I have settled on one that suits me as an individual. Granted there may be people who wear this mark (and might even do so after this thread), but I'm confident in my choice and I don't think I'd change unless a delicious alternative presented itself before me (perhaps a plasma pistol avatar).

There are some avatars that just sort of belong to people, you know? When I see the Spiker, I think of Hylebos. When I see the mustache bomb, I think of burritosenior. When I see the juggling dwarf, I think of Marty, and so forth. I've gone back and forth between many, with my first one being this and my longest worn one being this. It was difficult for me to choose, but in the end this one chose me.

How did you decide upon your avatar, or are you as indecisive as me?

Please don't hype for games...
They'll just fall short of your expectations and you'll complain for months.

I just keep it as my emblem. I guess I'm really not too sentimental on the bungie premade avatars.

It's based off of another guy's avatar. Loved it, and made my own using my favorite colors.

Spread the love...

I chose the Avatar I have now because I liked how the colors popped out. Now if I try and change it people send me angry PM's and I am bullied into changing it back.

No but really I like my Avatar :)

SnakeCatcher...

DreamCatcher and Snake emblems from H3, they always looked cool to me, so I thought that I would use it as my B.net avatar.

I've had this avatar since the Halo 2 days. I was playing Slayer on Termial in Halo 2 and saw someone with this emblem. I loved it and decided to take it on myself.

It was a big day for me.

I think I remember Harlow saying he's had it since the Halo 3 days.

Key

I think this one works a lot better with your personality.

  • 09.09.2012 6:24 PM PDT

I can't imagine myself without this avatar.

I've had my avatar since late 2007. The only thing I've changed on it was the colors.

Look at the date
Look at his join date
He had 13 days.

And I may have had it before then.

EDIT: changed his account.

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

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

I remember you having the Kat avatar, especially back when Reach was the biggest thing.

I have a couple that I've drifted between (Cortana with Index, Halo 2 ODST, Reach ODST, Noble Team emblem...)

I only change emblem when I get banned, and I haven't since February, so I've grown very used to my Halo 2 Emblem. A lot of people recognize me for this now.

Here's my twitter, in the off-chance you want that too.

Bye.

There's a user on this site that uses The compiler avatar - I think his account is something like çåsper - anyway, he OWNS that avatar.

I've been using this avatar for a couple of months.... I'd like to think it's sticking. :-)

One day i was like 'eh, i could use a change in Avatars.' Looked around a bit, put this one on, and after a few days i realized (at the time) basically nobody used it. So i've had it for almost 3 years.

That's his second account. His first is older.

I know, I linked to the wrong one. He had 13 days, not 18 (I read the last active date)

If I can find the thread where he says when he first used it, I'll tell you. It'll be a pain in the arse, though.
