Mine is a page from a zine a made last year about passing thoughts, I called it "REVERIE" (I actually won best zine). I'm not entering this year though, I think it was just a one-off thing. It's pictures of things that I do to help me feel better when I'm sad. Listening to records, writing, reading outside, picking flowers and instagramming pretty pictures.
Very very cool avatar!

What a great idea for a thread! Fruitbats or, to be more specific, flying foxes have always been my favourite kind of bat since I was little. They are among the largest of all bats and some species are even active during the day. Kratt's Kreatures, the Wildlife Fact Files, and the story of Stellaluna all contributed to my love of them as a youngster, not to mention other nature books and documentaries. Foxes are also a favourite species of mine; it easy to see why some fruit bats were named after them. Also, nature, whatever form it takes, is just plain enjoyable and astounding, and a nature-related avatar just seems right to me.

STELLALUNA!!! My deceased mother used to read that to me as a kid. I've always loved bats and thought they were fascinating. I admire and respect a fellow nature-lover. Nature is my bible. You could learn everything you every need to know about life from nature. It's all the love in the world, manifesting as a perfect playground for us humans.

My avatar is a picture of my always loyal traveling companions. Jameson and Cata (cay-duh)! You can see here that they are a close pair and will protect and defend each other forever.

I created the picture when I saw the quote and it reminded me of the feelings that I have for someone that I really shouldn't, he is my secret as no one has any idea. I know I made that sound like a teenage crush, but actually I'm 26 and have to work with this dude everyday, harsh times :( still I love the quote though!! xxx

The Martian. Two reasons. First, I feel at times abandoned and alone in a place where I just don't fit in. More inspirationally, I really admire the sheer will to survive the character has to just get through each day living in isolation.

Here's some other pages from the zine...

Do you have a digital copy of your zine to look at? I am just starting out making zines and yours looks awesome!

Mine is a character from the game mortal kombat x. He is Kenshi Takahashi and my favorite fighter. In this costume he goes by "Balanced Kenshi". Kinda relates as I am trying to fight my demons and find balance in life.

Mine is a project I made for Art class last year. I accidentally held my finger over the flashlight while taking the photo in a pretty dark room and it ended up reddish and I love the way this created a "bloody" scene as I wanted to portray a nightmare with that project. I like creepy things and this is the first project I've ever gotten to look about as discomforting as I wanted it to.

I picked mine because the person looks so calm on the surface, but they're in their own world. Just them and what they listen to. And the pic had a tribute to 8-bit gaming, which I did religiously when I was younger. Not as much now, but some. I have to take care of my cat, which ironically,True-Lee, is named Velvet :)

My avatar will always be something to do with jellyfish.
I've always loved jellyfish, and i'm really envious of them as well, just getting to drift through the water without a care.
They're really beautiful.

To me, Bubbles (Powerpuff Girl) represents all that is innocent that resides within each of us, yet at the same time, symbolises a greater strength that is hidden deep within us that none of us really know that we have until we are forced to used it for whatever reason.

Besides that, I have just found her to be very cute, sweet and charming as well as having the bluest of blue eyes that seem to look within your very soul to bring out the inner child in you (or me, should I say?)
