Why did you choose your profile pic that you have now?

[BeardyBennett]

I'm in competitive Pokemon draft leagues (everybody drafts 11/12 Pokemon and battle with those mons for a few weeks, with playoffs and a championship) and even started one of my own that's entering its eigth season. And my team is the Oakland Remoraiders as my favorite sports team is the Oakland Raiders. This is the logo I made for it, and it's just kind of my go-to avatar.

I recently played and completed FE12, and I became attached to Kris's character, even if it has many faults. Unfortunately, his game was only released in Japan, so he doesn't get enough recognition and probably won't for years to come. Or so I thought, until just recently, he got a card in Fire Emblem Cipher.

Spoiler

I did my best at restoring the image to a suitable profile pic. I probably could've done better, but I'm no Photoshop master.

 

[Izanagi97]

Because I didn't feel like changing it even though it was during that stupid phase I had when I was a teenager where I was obsessed with my astrological sign even though nowadays I consider astrology to be dumb as hell.

 

[MainJPW]

Gamma's theme song brings a tear to my eye.

 

[Smash Lampjaw]

I just found this random picture of Link eating and it made me laugh. It spoke to me on a spiritual level or whatever. Zelda and food, my life.

 

[Dee Dude]

Ness is my main.

I liked this artwork of him in M&L style (made by Master-Rainbow)

 

[Pacman High Tier]

I just thought it was a nice and cute image. While it has no relevance to Smash, I think it is Lovely.

 

[Arymle Roseanne]

Cause I like cute cartoon characters plus it relates to my username. Also she reminds of myself since I have a strong attachment to cutesy stuff.

I have a new profile pic from the mural seen in Ultimate which has those adorable animals Diddy and Isabelle, my favorite newcomers from Brawl and Ultimate.

 

[grizby2]

just something a made one day. I wanted something that matched the word "grizby" which I defined as "Scrappy and readily willing to do the unexpected in battle no matter how unorthodox it may seem, all while doing so with a grin"
which is exactly the way I play smash bros!
ex: doing a smash attack out of range 3 times only for my friend to rush me and get hit with the 4th attempt, taking his stock! followed by my hyena-esque laughter~

 

[l0.00ader]

Part 5 is confirmed, so here we go

 

[aarchak]

This thing was originally a placeholder I made myself and used when switching pics on my Google account, but I liked it enough to just use it permanently.

 

[I'd Negæte That]

Negate is a God Tier M:TG meme
Edit:: I switched my profile to Karn Liberated in loving memory of Tron, a modern deck whose existence is expected to end with the release of Guilds of Ravnica.

 

[Zinith]

Noipoi made this art and--knowing me --I just couldn't pass it up.

 

[thirsty-pocket]

"Ahh shoot i just joined this forum but I don't have an avatar... what do I have that's board appropriate... ahh... here we go, here's this Pig Ganon I drew that I was kinda proud of... Perfect... looks like I should crop it"

...incidentally, if you'd like to see a non shrunken non cropped version, check it out.

 

[Jonkiri]

Link with a mustache just looked amusing to me for some reason.

 

[Jonkiri]

Does anyone know how to resize images in signatures?

 

[Idon]

Does anyone know how to resize images in signatures?

You have to do it manually by editing the image elsewhere and uploading it to an image hosting site.

 

[Crooked Crow]

Female Tauren are perfect. Isn't she adorable?

 

[Deleted member]

The Giganotosaurus in Jurassic World Evolution got its size upgraded to a proper scale. And as a result, I love it.

 

[Frizz]

Robin's probably my favorite videogame character of all time, and he's my main in Smash 4/Ultimate as well. So while I was making a Twitter banner in paint.net, I decided to make two icons as well—one circular for websites like YouTube, Twitter, and Discord, and one squared, like for Smashboards and Steam. I think they came out pretty well. The only slight problem is that Smashboards doesn't display it correctly, since the bottom border is a bit cut off. But it doesn't matter. I spent a reasonable amount of time on it, and I like it. And that's all that matters!

 

[thirsty-pocket]

Well I thought my Ganon avatar gave off an unfriendly vibe, I just thought it was a cool picture, but I know some people will get different vibes from you based on your avatar. So I changed it to my favorite Pokemon, Magmar, giving a cheeky thumbs up. A bonus point to anyone who knows what it's mimicking.

 

[StarFan13]

I chose that pic because it's looks like my favorite female Trainer

Spoiler

Hilda

 

[Zinith]

This is Yoshi...

Yoshi is more than just cute, he's a ****ING DINOSAUR!!!

 

[Penroze]

Because Spring Man for Smash.

 

[LaughingLefou]

Because Ravio is best boy. He's

Spoiler

Link

but with a personality and can actually talk. Plus, if you're me and read too deep into things, he's quite the magnificent ******* and can play the long game. So add intelligence onto that as well?

 

[aarchak]

I main Ky in Guily Gear, and he's my favorite character in the series.

I still suck at the game though

 

[Deleted member]

Been looking for artwork of Princess Zelda with her sword, found this one and really liked it so I used it.

(Couldnt find the artist to credit them unfortunately)

 

[Vanguard227]

I actually drew my avatar pic. (I also drew my previous avatar of Luffy's wanted poster from One Piece)
Ike's one of my favourite video game characters, and I love Jojo's Bizarre Adventure. So I figured "why not combine the two?" XD

I think it turned out really well. Ike fits part 3's art style perfectly. Based him off of a manga panel of Jotaro.

 

[Imfrikinbad]

Well, this is a fighting game, and Ron Swanson is awesome sooo

 

[aarchak]

There's literally no way to argue with that.

 

[link2702]

I was a pit main in brawl. A friend made this edit for me, and it’s simply been too good to get rid of even though i hate how pit and dark pit play in 4, especially how their arrows work now. I hate how the arrows disappear now after a few seconds, making the ability to control 4 at once and rain em all back down on opponents in style which is what the pic references, impossible. Yes I know it was a useless gimmick but it was neat. I realize pit is overall technically a better character now, but i still miss his brawl moveset.


Anyway that’s why I got this image.

 

[Squirtle/Mario guy]

Combines my would-be main in Ultimate and Cappy
Also made it for fun so i thought why not

 

[DrPerplexion]

bad box art mega man is hilarious and you know it

 

[Meritocracy]

I'm a Tails enthusiast, and I've been admiring Noipoi 's artwork for a while, so I requested a Picture, and made it my profile pic

 

[KatKit]

Because out of millions of possibilities, me using this avatar was the only way to make Smash 5 happen. No need to thank me. I did it for the timeline.

Also, I like Gravity Rush and its protagonist Kat (AKA Kitten). The cool thing is that I can rotate this picture in any direction and it will make sense in context without looking out of place.

 

[Zinith]

This is Yoshi when he gets a serious case of the munchies...

 

[Imfrikinbad]

There's literally no way to argue with that.

I got a huge laugh out of this, thank you haha.

 

[Applebutter61]

Gen 4 is just my absolute favorite. And Giratina is bad***

 

[sanicdude246]

Because dedede is a SUPAH STAH WARRIA

 

[Deleted member]

It is the villains from my four favourite franchises + K.Rool
