Friend found mine years ago, I think on deviantart, and sent it to me.  And he's right, it is kind of me- particularly when I have anything that explodes.

Mine's not too hard to figure out  :P

Specifically, its of my red alox farmer.

Well, now its of my old cross red pioneer.  Still the same concept, though.

Whoey, the Swiss Tool box looks as if it's floating, kinda like Hans Solo was when he was being transported in the cryogenic freeze.

That's what I was aiming for... It is sitting on top of a usb led light I have, and the end is blended out to make it more floaty (yes ok I cheated... but it looks cool!)

I did try to take some new photos, so my avatar may change again soon!

Grant, I never noticed the dogs until you mentioned it. Great job on that one Whoey!¡!

I'm not sure how I could better it... that's a whole discussion Grant and I have to have I guess... and if Grant does get a new Jeep, I suppose he should have a totally new avatar?

Well, since I am down to one dog that would leave more space for Daisy's massive noggin to show up....

And after some research I don't see any decent yellows offered with the limited edition Moab versions, so I may have to go with another color.  I like the Gecko (zombie) Green, but really I'll take whatever is available with what I want at the best deal.

I agree- yellow would be my first choice, but the new yellow is more orangey than yellow.



Compare the above yellow to mine below and you'll see what I mean.



While I'm not a huge stickler when it comes to color (the right deal on the right truck trumps color) with all things being equal, I'll opt for the green.

I agree that it's a lot more orange that your current Jeep, but I think it's still a pretty good colour. :cheers:

Definite difference Grant. I kinda like the orangey look. Kinda like the FJ Cruiser yellow (my next vehicle for sure).

Mine is pretty self explanatory.

It's been there for years now, and I really never think about it.  It drives me nuts when folks change their avatars too often, because being lazy I tend to just look at avatars to see who posted what.

I have often wondered what I would change mine to if I did change it, and so far I have come up with nothing I like better than the puddle of liquid metal that represents me at the moment.

As I said in the "where did your username come from?" thread, my username came from a highschool football nickname one of my coaches gave me and it stuck.

Mine came from my wife. I am a breast man and I had a hottie as my avatar until my wife saw it and asked why I was looking at her's.

My wife offered and I accepted that is why below you will read "WIFE APPROVED".
