it started with Serafitia and I joking with MAF.

Blew completely out of proportion. It's stupid, old, and not funny.

2 weeks ago? Noooo, it can't be...unless someone's been screwing with time again. It seems like a week ago.
 
My avatar stands the test of time. I will not be removing it.





Besides, it was a hell of a time trying to draw that thing correctly in paint shop.

i can't find my old avatar anymore. :(

and i think you're missing the point of the joke you apparently originated. the maf avatars were funny because there were so many of them, not because they were individually clever.

Yes, the WERE funny because people started donig them. In that thread Sera posted. Then it just got out of hand, and became the 'cool' thing to do. Well screw that, George.

Fine, fine, I'll change it once I'm done checking all these threads. The question is, should I come up with a whole new avatar, or just stick with the same one that I've had since I've been a member here. I don't think I'm known enough to be able to stick out if I change it.

You don't dictate what's "in" on these forums! Whatever "trend" you come up with next will be promptly boycotted!

SO JUST DON'T EVEN TRY
I don't have to try.

People take leftovers and make it there own. Fine with me. Just don't even pretend you have a reason other than that one.

My avatar had the subtelest change... while it can be identified as one amongst the crowd, once this whole thing blows over, no one will remember MAFatars due to me...

Haha I changed mine back about a week ago.....

Anyway, point is that those are no longer MAF's avatar. They don't belong to MAF anymore. They've gotten so popular that its now considered GAF's public property......

Actually, I think MRAFAEL fits me much better right now than animated Raph.

Tell that to George Lucas :p

needs to show more effort.
can someone explain to me how people that weren't too lazy to make maf avatars in the first place are suddenly too lazy to change em back? Surely the latter is the easier of the two.

I changed mine when someone at work told me to make the BG transparent...or I'd still have it ;P

When will monkeys be in? :(
