I've been so curious about what some of the avatars and signatures mean of people on this board. Some of them we know because they are obvious, like my signature of Paul. Dah...so obvious. Some of the signatures are known by people who have been here for awhile, like Diane's...but how many newcomers know the significance of her signature? Let's make this a thread for people to explain (if needed) what their avatar and/or signature means. Hopefully, this hasn't been done yet! |

My avatar of another Paul, Paul Webb, former bassist of the 80s British band, Talk Talk. This was a screen capture from their video, "Dum Dum Girl." The signature is a graphic I made from a picture of a kitty DJ. I named it DJ Kitty Kat.

My avatar is the beautiful Jeff Buckley. And my signature is song lyrics from a nonsense song "I'm So Postmodern" by a comedian/musician who goes by the name "The Bedroom Philosopher". |

My avatar is of course, Wilson from the movie Cast Away starring Tom Hanks. I adore Tom Hanks and I love this movie, and when I had to choose an avatar for this board I had just finished watching Cast Away (again
) and Wilson was the first thing I thought of....I love Wilson!
I actually cried when Tom Hanks lost him in Cast Away...such an emotional moment!

It was about time I changed my avatar and signature, so I thought I'd celebrate Paul & Linda's love for each other and use my signature to quote lines from a song I can really relate to.

I think my avatar is pretty obvious. A wonderful friend made it for me. My signature is the John and Yoko's War Is Over If You Want It & peace sign, which shall remain until the war in Iraq ends. Then there is the hot picture of Paul where I think he is totally sexy. The lyrics to two of my favorite songs and a little hint to Paul to drop the gum wrapper from when I was using that avatar. |

Well, my avatar is just some blue flowers. I took one of those silly blogthings quizzes "What color is your flower?". I got blue and that's the picture that came up. My signature is pretty obvious. I just like the song I intend to change it soon, but I'm not sure what to put

Mine is easy to figure out...I probably don't even need to explain it. The line from "Nobody Told Me", because it reflects how I feel about myself and the state of just about everything, anymore. Cathy (BeatlesChick) gave me Tinkerbell, which was very kind of her, and of course I will never part with my peace symbol! My avatar is my favorite picture of John, taken when the Beatles were in India. Kopite has another taken at about the same time. He looks so peaceful and full of thought. Merry

Hey guys, nice topic. My avatar celebrates my love for the band Wings who are GREAT, and my sig is a cool banner that someone made for me on another Beatles message board. I chose the picture for it, which is a favourite of mine, and the lyrics from one of my fave Paul songs, Here There And Everywhere! It doesnt really mean anything, just expresses my love for Paul! |

My signature is me sitting on a chase, with my doggy bringing me cookies as I sip my coffee. The green gremlin is me before I had my morning coffee after a night with very little sleep. The PEACE sign speaks for itself ~~Peace to you and the world. The fluttering heart is my love for mankind, even the bad people. |

Well let's start with my signature, typically I will use 1 of 2. My current one is a bible passage, the other one, "The Spin Stops here cause we’re looking out for you!", would be a line that Bill O'Reilly uses on his tv show. I like Paul, so that is why I have hime as my avatar. |

I don't know if any of you are going to believe this but guess what I found online related to my avatar :huh:: http://www.thamike.com/faux_newz/128_1214/sun_man.html In short the above link says the following: Man Seizes Control of Sun, Sends Ransom Demand to UN NEW YORK, NY - An emergency meeting of the United Nations Security Council was convened today to determine the best course of action for dealing with a new and horrifying terrorist threat. Earlier this week, a man identifying himself only as “Phil” sent a ransom letter and a picture to the UN. The letter explained that Phil had taken control of the sun, and that unless he was paid one million dollars, he would use his power to destroy every living thing on the planet. Normally, threats of this nature go unheeded by the UN, but the included picture was too much for them to ignore. UN-President Kofi Annan is scheduled to have a press conference later this afternoon when the Security Council settles on the plan for dealing with this threat. When he does, Faux-Newz just might be there to get the story for you but probably not, since it’s going to be right around our siesta time. Written by Faux-Newz Staff Writer Nerraux Then there's a caption under the image which states the following: Phil's Terroristic Make Up Is Enhanced By Earth's Yellow Sun ==== I told you all that I was having a strange week. :rolleyes: |

Sorry, I never saw this. My signature is to honor my son who died very suddenly 6 months ago from anaphylactic shock. I've changed it somewhat now because I'm sure people are tired of looking at it, but I still feel the need to have it there cause it means a great deal to me. I want people to be reminded not to take life for granted cause it can be taken away in an instant. I just changed my avatar when I found this one with the Strawberry Fields Forever picture. I really like those strawberries! |
