Liked the changes in avatars around.

But I don't really have any idea regarding what to turn my avatar into that would be really the spirit of Halloween. Well leaving aside the days when I turn into a werewolf but then even the camera stops working while focusing me so I really can't get any images.

Any ideas?

I just love having my birthday near Halloween :rolleyes: :p (Halloween is just under a week after my birthday.)
I'll change it soon, but I'll have something happier and less icky when its my birthday :p

Ha! I've already changed mine before I saw this thread. :D

I just chose a very classic scene from "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown". I have an affinity for all of these specials. :D Here it is (for those of you who may never have seen this :) ) :

Man or Astro-mummies?.

Thanks, Niamh. And Pensive, why not change yours into a crow? That way, it's still a bird. Just a suggestion, though.

Mine was called vintage halloween. I thought it was a little different so I'm going to go with it for a while and if I find anything better, I'll change it.

Hey and Shal? I like yours. Dont change it.

I decided to go for it too. My choice isn't exactly Halloween-ish, but I think it's mysterious enough and very beautiful. (In case you don't recognize it, it's from the poster of the Perfume movie.)

I wanted something... different... and then... I couldn't think of anything!! Then I was looking at icky photos of zombies from Resident Evil (one of my favourite films as a child! :p) and I recalled a thing in Canberra, when we went to Questacon and got fake injuries!! So... thats my new avatar... its as close to something original and Halloween-y as I could find :D

I had noticed everyone's avatars becoming a bit dark and scary, and then I found this thread, which explained it all. I'll join in with my favorite allegorical image of death.

Death from Ingmar Bergmans "Seventh Seal", if I am not mistaken.

Hmmm, have to find something for myself too, I guess...

I quite like this one (http://tekelili.deviantart.com/art/Nyarlathotep-35604887) though although I am not sure if I could use it as an avatar:
http://th21.deviantart.com/fs11/300W/i/2006/181/5/6/Nyarlathotep_by_tekelili.jpg
Still, I guess, something Lovecraftian would be nice.

I changed mine from Lord Byron to Comte de Lautreamon (Isidore Ducasse):

http://www.caressa.it/img/lautreamont.jpg

You must fear this innocent-looking young man whose very young brain could pour forth such horrors as this:


One should let one's nails grow for a fortnight. Oh! How sweet it is to brutally snatch from his bed a child with no hair yet on his upper lip, and, with eyes wide open, to pretend to suavely stroke his forehead, brushing back his beautiful locks! Then, suddenly, at the moment when he least expects it, to sink one's long nails into his tender breast, being careful, though, not to kill him; for if he died, there would be no later viewing of his misery. Then, one drinks the blood, licking the wounds; and, during the entire procedure, which ought to last no shorter than an aeon, the boy cries. Nothing could be better than his blood, warm and just freshly squeezed out as I have described, if it weren't for his tears, bitter as salt...
