Nice topic @joer! It was nice reading the stories behind the avatars.
My avatar was done by @cullers. I thought it would be cool to have all three of them together, partly since completing the 1997 pikas was one of my bigger achievements.

My Avatar is just a picture of my 1st edition fossil booster box. It was my first big purchase getting back into the hobby so it’s meaningful to me!
After reading this thread I’m considering coming up with something new for my Avatar! Something permanent! I just don’t know what yet.

My avatar is from the first episode of the anime, when Ash sees Ho-Oh. This scene always resonated with me as a kid; even as a adult, I still get goosebumps every time I watch it.

When I got back into collecting I started with the evo zard. At one point they were selling for as low as $3. I bought all the ones I could find at that price. Would also go into stores and look for gem mint caliber ones and buy all those.

Thank you @smpratte. My avatar actually dates back to when I was a writer for now defunct super smash brothers site “allisbrawl.com”. Loved my little black and white sketch, but having talented students to lend a hand is great.
The art in some of these avatars is truly amazing and it’s super fascinating how there are so many stories to go with others. I love the mix of emotions versus creativity. Some are favorite cards, some memories and some are just feelings put to paper. Even the ones for simple fun are great! Bravo ladies and gentlemen!
