EDIT: After looking at your avatars, I rescind my vote and say you should use the surfing dreadnought!!!

I agree with Ironhide. Jerry's work on our resident sith lord's portrait is perfect for an avatar.

@Porkuslime... nice creepy tubby .gifs :wink: I was tempted to grab a few for my photobucket for future use!

@Eric,

Now that this is a two page discussion... man, I'm timid to admit I'm following this thread :lol: :shocked:

Now that this is a two page discussion... maybe you should post your .gifs that are up for the vote - old ones and new ones you may be considering??

I've only seen Mr.Bean & Dancing Leonidae; I have not seen Truffle Shuffle or Darth Eric, so maybe if I saw some of the older ones, or newer ones you're considering, I would change my vote?

Damn, you seem popular :'( *envy* maybe I should be "in it for the $$, Fame, and Poultry!" hahaha! :mrgreen:

How many pages/votes before you wrap this baby up? :-P

Best regards,
Rik

@ Eric,

Ok dude... I am digging your style (but I already knew that from the Dancing Leonidae & Bean!!)

Here's my opinion for it's 2 cents worth....

First .gif - Indian Guy = creepy in a bad way, but curiously interesting, kind of like a train wreck.

Second .gif - Exorcist gal = creepy coz she's a hottie in both forms(wtf is up w/me???)... :oops: :shocked:

Third .gif - wake board mech = just awesome, nuf said.

Fourth .gif - bobble-head jesus = see above.

Fifth .gif - kid dancing in monster shirt = also awesome! (I dunno, maybe coz I'm a dad now, but kids crack me 'TF' up!)

Sixth .gif - teddy bear/dancing Leonidae = teddy bear is "meh" but teddy bear Leonidae is OMG!! Totally funny *might steal that one too! :-P

image One - Eric The Man = I'm always down for stick figure dudes!

image Two - Space Marine Cow(?) = that's funny, seriously - I wouldn't even try to milk that mother!

image Three - "shiny object" = omg! that's me!! :oops:

image Four - girl = umm... I'm @ a loss.........

Seventh/Eighth .gif - dancing leonidae & " .. " beam of light mouth = I've seen the googley eyed light mouth one before = "meh" , but that dancing leonidae... still = omg ROFLMAOACFB!!!! (for definition of "ACFB" see previous post)

image Five - Darth Eric(?) = dude... if that's you -seriously- F'ING CLASSIC!!! -nuf said.

Seventh .gif - chunks = Chunks is beautiful!! - ALWAYS!!!!!! - nuf said! (he was my HERO in Goonies, maybe coz I relate to that lil'chubbeh guy! LOL)

image Six - IDK WTF that is? = Mebbe GW something-or-other? :(

Ok Eric... that's my take on'em. You and Jim (and Stanislav, Gubnutz, & Bitzjunkie) are meh dudes - take it for what it's worth - even if it's not worth much :wink:

If you think my attitude stinks, you should smell my underwear!

Buy, sell or trade....it's all the same to me. Lower refs pays/ships first!

Tyrants can not be stopped by earnest words and furrowed brows. Action, strong bold action coming from a position of strength and determination, is the only effective deterrent.

The surfing Dreadnought is AWESOME! I still like Darth. The Teddy Bear Leonidas and Cow Space Marine are also very cool. The rest you could lose and it wouldn't bother me much. ;)

That IS Eric in the Vader suit. Which turned out much better than me as Princess Leia... :shocked:

If I was to pick in order, it would be:

1) Surfer Dread Dude
2) Darth Eric
3) Tactical Bovine
4) Street Dancing Spartan King Bear

@Bitz:
I'll have to look again from home. Many of those were blocked at work.
LOVE the peeing Star Trek, though.

Already have O RLY, but... eh....

@Karl & Sumo.
That's my face over a Vader image. It's been a while. Someone actually created that for me as a sort of gag. I liked it so much I used it for a while.
I can't remember off hand who it was, though.
If the person who made it is reading this, PLEASE take credit!

@ Sumo:
image Four - girl = umm... I'm @ a loss.........
That creepy little girl is my pride and joy 3 years ago at Halloween.
( taughter her how to do the "evil scowl." (he says, while beaming with pride)
She went as a vampire... a real vampire, too. Not some squishy little teen heartthrob style vampire.

The credit (if you give it to him) goes solely to consectari. He did Eric as DV and me as Leia (not pretty). It was in the overlong do something stupid for bits thread...

At Bitzjunkie: I REALLY like the Conan one!!!! His face at the end is priceless. The rest are OK, although I have seen quite a few of them before.

@ MM: I liked that one too Eric :wink: .

@ Karl: Thanks - I really liked that one too, then the picard with chunk and the first one attached below.

Well, I see that I could find these forever, so I'll only add a few more ideas on this one:
