We haven't had one of these in a while.

Avatar: Art from Ar Tonelico.
Sig: My WoW character in now-updated gear.
The quote is from when I popped in my copy of Valkyrie Profile 2: Silmeria when it came out, turned on the tv, and walked into another room to grab a soda. I heard sound effects that sounded much like the Flintstones and went "WTF, why does Valkyrie Profile sound like the Flintstones?" I came back in, and it turned out it was a Fruity Pebbles commercial.

Avatar: An MC from the late-80s-to-early-90s, Prime Minister Pete Nice. He is one of my favorite MCs. He especially shines on his solo album, Dust to Dust. It's an underrated classic.
Sig: The quote is from the creator of the Mother series. I thought it was an insightful statement to make.

: No need to explain really. I loved Superman Returns. The song is just what is playing on my party shuffle so no real reason for it being there.
Sig: The image is quite obviously Kenshin, and the quote within the image is one that I thought suited Kenshin's character well. The quote is from the Star Wars book,
Traitor
, by Matthew Stover. But now that I've finished reading the Kenshin series I think it is time for a new image and a new quote for that image. But I'm not sure of what I will do exactly.
The other quote is just one I found somewhere sometime ago. I think it is fairly humorous, yet rings true at the same time. Probably needs to be changed as well.
EDIT: Alright, I changed some things in the sig. The orange quote will likely stay that way for a while. The image is just a rough draft I guess you could say. I think I'll go with Bleach for the image for sure, but the quote may change. It's not quite up to looking as good as I'd like it to right now, but I'll work on it later.
EDIT PART DEUCE: Forgot to mention, the quote in the image was said by Ralph Waldo Emerson.
EDIT #3: Sig image has been finalized I think. The only change that may be made is the quote, but I think it fits the character pretty well.

My desktop:
http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a262/nealch/desktop.jpg
it's pure, sweet, sexy, completely unadulterated bass porn at its finest. Pictures of Warwicks make me happier in pants than a lot of real porn. And this pic of a Corvette Standard 6 by the pool is pure sex. I have a Corvette Standard 4.
My avatar comes from a piece of art by Ron Scire. It's a faceless mystic guitar player.

My sig is purely shameless self promotion: links to my weblog, my bass gear page, and my band's MySpace.

My desktop
. It's Saki from
Genshiken
. I began using it earlier today. Before that I had been stuck with the deafult WinXP one, as I hadn't been bothered to find a new desktop background since the last time I reinstalled Windows. Anyway, I really like the character and the pic, so I think I'll stay with it a while. I tend to change background (and avatar) pretty frequently, usually.
The avatar (also new today) is Tamaki from
Ouran High School Host Club
. I just love the expression.
I'm currently lacking a sig, because I can never figure out what the hell to put in it.

My future car, the Porsche Cayman S. Avatar is Az-Bat, which is basically when Azrael took over the role of Batman while Bruce was unable to do so. No Sig.

Avatar - Iginla (like it says)
Title - Some silly saying from some movie or other (Shirley Temple one, maybe?), used to refer to him (since he's the team captain). Stole the idea from fans of other hockey teams, I think. =P
Sig - Flames.. it's pretty obvious.

Avatar = An old observation of mine. :P
Desktop =
This.
Sig = The same fucking image I've always had, plus a weekly community spotlight where I point out the most amusing/insane/retarded thing I've seen on the boards over the past week. Haven't seen a new one lately, so it's a little outdated. :P

Sig.: It's what happens when you take my Albel Nox fandom, and mix it up with insults twoards Yangus and the Alchemy Pot from DQ8.

Mwahahahahahahahahaha!
Take this! Double Slash of Fury! Dragon Roar! Kaboom!
Wait...Kaboom? I gotta stop drinking that special juice Yangus made a week ago in the Alchemy Pot.
