[quote="Alex Row";p="502173"]The person on my avatar is Haruko, the crazy, supposedly alien, chick from Furi Kuri (FLCL), a short anime series.

The quote in my signature is from a poet I know little about nor who's works I've read much of, but I like the verses quoted.[/quote]

And your name is from Last Exile. =)

Hrm... I have no avatar yet, though I suppose I should get one eventually.

My sig is just quotes from the Discworld books that I enjoy. I'll probably rotate them as time goes on. =)
"... and Brutha said to Simony, 'Where there is darkness we will make a great light...'" -The book of Om, from Carpe Jugulum , By Terry Pratchett.

Looks like some version of the Cheshire Cat. Maybe from American McGee's Alice or something sinister like that.[/quote][quote="Euthanatos";p="503556"]Yeah, I'd actually like to know where it's from, it's been transferred from two computers thus far. I dunno.[/quote]

Looks to me like a scan of the Calvin & Hobbes illustration in which...come on, Calvin fans, let me hear you say it ;)
The follies which a man regrets the most in his life are those which he didn't commit when he had the opportunity. - Helen Rowland, A Guide to Men, 1922

Got a new signature image (viva la photobucket.) It's from Heat, in which Robert DeNiro caps some poor sucka's ass with his Sig. Includes haiku by Matsuo Basho.

That was a good movie.
No person was ever honored for what he received. Honor has been the reward for what he gave. -- Calvin Coolidge

Today's liberals wish to disarm us so they can run their evil and oppressive agenda on us. The fight against crime is just a convenient excuse to further their agenda.

It'll be sad if people don't know who the guy in my avatar is.
Yo Mav, I'm real happy for you and Imma let you finish but Hirschoff had the best sig trends of all time.

I see an octagon, a Japanese symbol of imperial conquest, and two presumed Japanese characters. No guy.
I would weep, but my tears have been stolen.
I would shout, but my voice has been taken.

Damnit, Seir! You don't change avatars the day after you explain what your avatar is!

By the way, <3 my dagger.

Stuck on a PC with no photoshop and only GIMP 2 to give me succor...Must...make...livejournal icons!

Image
No. I won't explain.

Image
I miss PS7 and all it's fonts. It's warm, warm fonts.

Image
From Angel Moxie. I have one remarkably like this from the FMA manga. But it's stuck on my desktop, along with my several dozen other avatars and banners.

Image
From Apple.com's theatrical for War of the Worlds.

Image
Lowroad75, an excellent, obscure little comic. It's the next Questionable Content, or it should be.

Image
Actually, I made this one on my desktop, before the monitor broke. It's sort of an injoke. I wish I could've gotten a better pic of Tony. But I was stuck using the studio pub shot.

Image
Ah, X-Play, how I love thee and thy manner of making fun of everything. Even your own name.

Um, Toothpaste, every single link you provided leads me back to this page of this thread. WTF?

Yeah... about that: I tried to get my username changed to "Haruko" several weeks ago, but it seems obvious that the lack of reply after my PM was viewed means "no".
