    Same one I've had since 2010 for the RoR forum. Changed it for the first time after the forum switch as it was blurry so I used a remade version I had laying around

    I've had the same avatar since I first joined the forums, and I haven't felt the need to change it. I've considered changing it to a picture of my E46, but it would then require a username change.

    seeeeewww trendeyy

    It's bendy from Portal 2, I needed an avatar that's unoffensive and yet unique, here we are. I wish I could say there's an interesting story behind it, but there isn't. And it's temporarily glowing orange because dashboard indicators are very trendy here, and somehow I think I'm being clever and ironic but that's not the case.

    Mine is quite simple: I like buses, specifically the GM New Looks "Fishbowls".

    My previous one was a similar one but the back end of an Orion V. And if you're wondering which city it's from, it's the Toronto Transit Commission, of the TTC if you're from here.

    My avatar represents the clearly superior online chatting protocol known as Internet Relay Chat.
    I know you all love IRC, and i'm glad to tell you, BeamNG has its own server you can visit!
    Don't rush, there is space for all of you ;) <3 :oops::oops::oops::oops::oops::oops::oops::oops::oops::oops::oops::oops::oops::oops::oops:

    This one? Well it was just a random decision of a picture I made, scaled down. To kinda simulate the non-me, of course.

    It is 1999 Lincoln Town Car Stretched Limousine. It is pink. It is drifting. I like it.

    Mine has a rather long story...
    A while back, I made an account this forum with the generic first name and then a number. Later on, I decided that I didn't want a username that has any personal information on it, so I thought a while about it. That night, I had been watching old Three Stooges episodes, particularly 'Violent is the Word for Curly'. In that episode, the Three Stooges are mistaken for 3 eminent professors who are scheduled to speak at a college. In one scene, Larry, who is confused for Professor Feinstein, is looking off into space looking like a complete idiot. So I took a screenshot of that scene, put it as my avatar, and had my username reset to Feinstein (I left out the professor part; I can't remember why). Now I use Feinstein as my online alias.

    I created a RoR account years ago with the same username as here. A couple years later I found this pic from the internet and made it my avatar and I started using it here as well because I think it fits my username.

    I hated generic i-like-this and really-funny-stuff and have-you-seen-this and we-are-in-a-clique-group and all the other wannabe icons. So i made one myself. So hipster. Metahipster.

    Because my profile pic is pretty much as random and interchangeble as my username.

    The lowered Prelude was my (with much help from others) first ever BNG mod, I love how it came out and have no idea what other avatar I should use... Let's see how long I'll keep it.
