Post your suggestions so we can get a poll going and vote! Every Halloween we change avatars to a certain theme. Traz started this in 2005, and being the Halloween maniac that I am, I have kept track.

Past themes:

2005 was Muppets.
2006 was Cartoon Characters.
2007 was Movie Monsters.


Past nominees for the theme are:
Superheroes
TV/Movie Characters (specify)
Video Game Characters


So make a theme suggestion, and I'll get a poll going in a week or so. What are you going to be for Halloween, little Maniac? :D

Jeez, if we want to be truly geeky, we should get specific and say "DC Superheroes" or "Marvel Superheroes." As for TV characters, we could all pick characters from "The Simpsons."

How about sci-fi/horror/fantasy TV characters?

Since everyone dresses up in an avatar every day on the 'board, perhaps everyone should have a reality pic of themselves as their Halloween costume avatar.

Holy fuck. It's like the return of the living dead or something.

Bokchoi, that sounds about as lame as wearing a printed bedsheet
with two eye-holes cut out for a ghost outfit. :smirk2:

I still think we should all choose avs with our favorite 80's hair metal
band on it. Stryper? Motley Crue? KISS? C'mon! It's a no-brainer. :)

And oh yeah. We needs a poll for this, just so we know who wants what.

What about those of us too young to have a favorite 80s hair metal band? Just saying... :headscratch:

Favorite anthropomorphic cartoon (or real life, I suppose, Howard the Duck-style) animal character..

Favorite webcomic character

Favorite character from a failed and universally panned movie but is your own personal guilty pleasure (so bad it's good cult films I suppose can apply but it's not as fun)

Use a different soup-based avatar every day! :D

Well, I'm trying to come up with a combination of the other great suggestion, (metal hair band), together with soup. :)

But are there enough different kinds of hairy soup for each of us to claim one as an avatar :confused:

Hell, I'm not even sure avatars can be changed now...I haven't tested it.

Anyone want to try?

I like Peanuts characters.

I also like the soup idea.

How about your favorite president?

The avatar can be changed by the upload option, as evidenced by my old Edna pic.

I haven't tried the link option yet. Does someone else want to give that a shot?
