Hey there everybody!
As i peruse this forum, i often see your avatars... sometimes they are hilarious, and sometimes they make me think “WTF”!

Tell me a little about yours, and why you chose it.
Would you ever change it?

Mine is pretty uninteresting... my first pin was a BOP. I put a lot of love into making it beautiful, and of course played the shit out of it. Eventually i came across pinside for help with an issue on it. When i had to chose an avatar it was pretty obvious that the bride would be it.

Not sure why I picked mine. I liked duck hunt. It's not pinball related. It's been a few years and now I am wondering what the hell was I thinking.

Mine is a picture of my dog that passed away (Jorge). Also my screen name. We are driving in my boat, one of my favorite other hobbies. Also if you look close there is a Captain Morgan goatee photo shopped on the dog and me.

Will never change it. It is in memory of him.

I always said Jorge wasn't a good dog but he was my dog!

LIONMAN! feels very local to the WI / IL boarder area where I'm from. I turned that into a fake "Pinball Fury" tournament poster for my game room, which I'm using as my current avatar.

Baron Karza, evil nemesis of the Micronauts, the best toys EVER when I was a kid.

Micronauts would make such a cool pin theme too. You got robots, space ships, time travel, good vs evil, alien creatures....

I have to say every time I see your avatar out of the corner of my eye I see the devil with an erection.

At first look I thought it was a keg.

AMS agent Thomas Rogan from Sega's arcade series The House of the Dead. Love the games -- they're what introduced me to arcades and eventually pinball -- and I've been working as an admin and mod on the House of the Dead wiki and Discord server.

Chewy was a St. Bernard / Old English Bulldog mix and the sweetest dog a family could have. She passed away in January of this year to cancer at just 8 1/2 years old. Will never change her picture out.

If I was a cartoon character I'd be Archer, but in reality I'd probably end up being Peter Griffin.
